| Still sealed |
While making lists for my Worldeaters I found that I had some points to spend. Most of the stuff in the wh40k 10th edition Worldeater's List are too pricey to crunch into the small to moderately sized games that we like to play locally. Then I found the Chaos Spawn entry with just the perfect amount of points for two of the gribblies, and I had to give them a shot. Then I realized I didn't have any models for them. -Well, none assembled anyway!
It turns out I had one in a pile of bits and two in unopened blister packs. These are metal miniatures that came out in the early '00s. I had planned to use them with hopes of getting off a few Fleshy Curse psychic powers during the time when the first 40k 3rd Edition Chaos Codex was current, but I just never pulled it off.
I had a fun evening assembling two of the things and the next day I went out and primed them in White.

After drying in the spring heat for a few hours I got them inside and painted their bases.

| Base coated bases. |
I used Contrast Paint to get them battle-ready. Blood Angel Red was slashed all over these things. The the teeth and bone spikes I used Skeleton Horde.

| Contrast Paints. |
And that's it, two battle-ready... things. Here is how they scale up next to a Primaris marine.

| Sized up. |
Later that evening, these Spawn got to join their Worldeaters brethren on the tabletop in a battle against the minions of the false Emperor, but that's a story foe another post.

Note, I have titled this Part 1 even though I have no immediate plans to do more with them. But if I do get the inspiration to paint them up to a higher level, I would like to have the continuity in place for future readers.
