From DallasE: Khornate Chaos Lord on Juggernaut (20 points)

 

Another entry in the Insane New Project sweepstakes, here is a Khornate Chaos Lord on a Juggernaut to accompany the Berzerkers I painted last week.

Since our preferred edition of 40K is 5th, I'm trying to build my Khornate 40K army exclusively from models that were current for that edition, and that means everything but the Berzerkers will be metal.*  

This model was obtained through the mail from Tista Minis in Hamilton, Ontario and I feel like it was a bit of a bargain. I think I paid $35 CAD for it, painted (badly) of course, but it stripped down VERY nicely to bare metal in no time at all. Contrast that with a new (plastic) Chaos Lord on Juggernaut, available from GW for... $83 CAD. Of course the new one is likely twice the size of this one (it comes on a 90mm oval base, as opposed to the 60mm base this model sports), BUT it's also 66 parts, when the old metal model was... ten parts. AND IT'S METAL. A no-brainer.

I just love the character on these old metal models. I think I finally discovered the blue formula for the armour deco.

The Juggernaut has a very determined look on its face too. This is peak 1990s GW isn't it??

Sadly I think this giant model counts as 28mm cavalry for scoring purposes so I'll take ten points, please :-)

*I do have a random box of newer plastic Bloodletters that came from... somewhere, that may get assembled and painted for this army. But there will be a unit of metal "Casey at the Bat" Bloodletters too. And of course the Rhinos and other vehicles will be plastic, probably Deimos-pattern Rhinos and a Predator, as MK1 Rhinos are now far too dear. But don't worry, they will all be plenty spiky :-)

Great work Dallas on this big angry dude on his big angry mount.  I am essentially GW ignorant so nothing of the back story, but I don't want to meet them!  I am going to count this as 20 points, equivalent to a vehicle.
