Hello Heretics!
The call of Chaos has been ringing in my ears and I’ve succumbed to its seducing tones. The call of Slaanesh as caused me to drop all other projects and focus only on she who thirsts and being the self-centred, over controlling and extremely jealous type bitch bastard it is I obeyed. My soul has been covered in silk and poked with pins and my mind has had thoughts of the truly deranged and disturbing things. One such vision is this chap. I’ve yet to give him a name so any suggestions would be great, serious or otherwise……….. go on poke some fun at him, you know you want to! He actually likes being poked as he’s your typical sadistic, masochistic, possessed, psychopath marine!
I have to say the he was a joy to kit bash and sculpt and to date I think he’s one of my better painted miniatures. I really loved blending the fleshy pink skin tones with the washed out purples of his armour. The aim was to make the armour appear to be changing into flesh as the Daemon inside him takes more control of the Marine he used to be.
So what will his purpose be? Well he’s the beginnings of a new war band, which will be part of a new campaign I am in the middle of writing. I shall reveal more in the next coming months but lets just say that it will be better than the Chapel!
Anyhoo I hope you like and are also positively repulsed by what you see. Keep on hobbying hobby nuts!

Ooh, that is nicely unsettling – the pink is spot on and the way you’ve used the colour across the flesh and the armour is excellent (in a slightly disturbing way). Very much looking forward to seeing the rest of the warband, and of course the wider campaign!

Thanks Wudu! The rest of the war band is currently causing havoc in my mind. They desire to be set free!!

Gruesome and very cool mate. The fleshy tones are both well executed and disturbingly nightmarish.
