So far I've done a Strawbear and some small(ish) buildings..., but it is time to start on one of the ongoing projects for 2018-19. I signed up to the 40k partwork, Conquest, as it seemed like a good way to get a kick to paint up a load of the figures I already had floating around, unbuilt. Seems like a dumb way of doing things, but it seems to be working...
To accompany the Hauler, the next few models are the chaos lord and his bodyguard from the recent Warhammer Quest: Blackstone Fortress
Once again, I've just realised that I hatehatehate painting black armour. And faces by the looks of that photo. Still, these four models are a nice step towards painting up all the 40k Chaos stuff that I've got floating around. To give you a sense of scale on the Hauler, here they are together
According to the scoring chart, this should be 20 for the Hauler (as a vehicle) and 15 for the three marines, totalling 35 points.

Wow, these are very impressive Paul. That Blighthauler is superbly nasty. I'm glad you found your pot of rust paint as the effect is absolutely superb on this model. A few of us here have picked up Blackstone Fortress, but I've not had time to open it yet, so now seeing your work here I'm very keen to get tucked into these models. You may hate painting black armour, but it doesn't show in your work - very nice, these. I also like your red groundwork as it does a great job of setting up the colours of the models. Great work!
Fantastic work! All of it it great, but the blighthauler is brilliant. Looks understated, but with subtle details. Very well done.
ReplyDeleteWow, properly fantastic
ReplyDeleteWow that’s a scurvy looking bunch, well done Paul.
ReplyDeleteThey probably have scurvy. I can't imagine there are many vitamins in the Eye of Terror
DeleteFantastic looking nurgle thing and great looking marines!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Curt, you really should. Some of the figures are absolutely gorgeous
ReplyDeleteThat‘s some top shelf work on these chaotic chaps Paul!
ReplyDeleteI have no idea what that thing is but it's ace !
ReplyDeleteSensational stuff, Paul, absolutely sensational :-)
ReplyDeleteLovely work! It’s got me turning an eye to my unpainted Nurgle stuff now.
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff! I’ve got those marines lined up as well, but mine won’t be black. I agree it is such a pain to paint.
ReplyDeleteWow! Stunning quality in that painting work. I think you guys SF and fantsy aficionados have a greater level of creativity than historical wargamers. I like a lot to learn and get inspiration from you
ReplyDeleteExcellent brushwork Sir!
ReplyDeleteI like those sir!
ReplyDeleteNice work. The Chaos Commander figure looks like an absolute brute.
ReplyDeleteSmashing stuff, I’m right there with you on the black armour but these have come out nicely.
ReplyDeleteVery nice, very neat
ReplyDeleteIan
Thanks all!
ReplyDeleteGreat work Paul! I really like the weathering on the Nurgly thing!
ReplyDeleteLovely work Paul :)
ReplyDeleteNice work, Paul! The blight hauler looks suitably icky and the Marines really evoke the jealously that my FLGS sold out of Blackstone after the holiday. I look forward to seeing more Blackstone stuff soon!
