They say that the third time is a charm. I have no clue what that means so instead I'll just say I can't believe this is my third time in the Challenge already!
In Year 1 I mainly painted Chaos Age of Sigmar figures...
In Year 2 I mainly painted Chaos Age of Sigmar figures...
...
You'll never guess what Year 3 will be bringing...?
...
Yeah. Chaos. Age of Sigmar. Again. It seems no matter how much I clear off the shelves more fills the gaps - pretty much instantly. The slog continues :-)
To get me off the mark I've opted to start with a single Leader figure just like last year.
Say hello to the new Darkoath Warqueen
She leads the Slaves to Darkness faction which was not on the cards for me until GW released the Warqueen... yes I do have a habit of starting armies based on 1 figure I like...
Love how dynamic GW made her as she climbs the small rock to lay down some axe therapy
I've decided to align this faction with the Chaos God of Tzeentch, hence the blues and purples. They can then ally with my Disciples of Tzeentch army that you may remember from last year. Acolytes and birds anyone?
I do like the detail that GW has added with scars as well. She's been doing this for a while I think.
She's a standard GW 28mm figure so I'm thinking 5 points to get me kick-started :-)
More to come if all goes vaguely towards a plan...

Well, I applaud you for sticking to a theme, Nick. She's a great looking figure and I especially like the themed, non-metalic metal approach you took towards her shield, cuirass and axehead. Well done that. Will there be more of her minions to follow? Looking forward to finding out.
5 points to mark you on the roster and will start your gambit in the Evil Empire Challenge. Great job!
