Apologies for my continued Radar silence, I have been busy (sorta) No real updates in terms of painting as I have been just concentrating on getting everything 4 flat base colours, this takes a remarkable amount of time apparently (and I have had some help)
I have done all the troops and all but one vehicle, I have reavers, Incubi and a Razorwing to base, hoping to push them out by the end of the weekend, wish me luck.
Also I have essentially chosen a list, there is just some final chin scratching and points jiggling required, but thats for another filler post ….
Somewhere in-between I got the urge to do up my Archon, Prince Vidious, pictures are provided. I’m just trying to find a suitable eye to put on the cross/guard of his husk-djinn-trap sword to show it’s alive (anyone who has read Elric of Melnibone will get me)- BTW Archon has been kicking A55 in all of the test games so far , even saving me from complete epic fail in my worst test game so far .
I’m enjoying his growing soul collection *grin* lets just say Driago wont be beating Tzeentch at chess, taking a dump in Nurgles private toilet , Staring down Khorne or defeating Slaanesh in a wanking contest any time soon.
Thought for the day: Don’t play games after fighting with your GF for two consecutive nights which only seems to encourage extreme dicefail and poor decision making (must be catching) I’ll bounce back.
Soon…
You know i think he’s great, and effective seeing him 1st hand.
Archon’s looking good… Any chance you can tell us the base mini so I can shamelessly copy it? Ish?
Yes, I can , the base model for my Archon….is an Archon….
Cheers
Pretty good looking model, I like his cute face grimace :3
Btw, where did you get that stinger pistol (?) and awesome ugly head (??) for him?
Cheers , there is quite a bit of extra detail on him, the pistol is from the wrack weapons sprue in Finecrap and the head is a Cast-Cash Vlad Von Carstein.
I suspect that the Wracks are also one big pile of “resin”? -_-
Anyway, thanks for the tip. It seems that your archon has in-built vexator mask thanks to Mr. Carstein.
Nah, no wracks for me yet, reservations about fin€ca$t and the fact I dont use them for various reasons means they are pretty low on the to-buy list, this was a donation.
Nah, the new De fluff says the older and more evil an Archon gets the harder it is for him to stay pretty, mine is out on a raid topping up his ‘tan’ Archons can’t buy vexators any more , which is a shame, I suspect it would be more effective at keeping him alive than a shadowfield…..
