Possessed Heretic Astartes

 A random single figure rolling off the painting desk that doesn't really fit in with anything else I'll be posting any time soon... 

Possessed Heretic Astartes 

I have not come up with a name for him yet... 

Not sure when or how I will ever make use of him... 

He has a brother, Lorgag, which I finished ages ago. 

Lorgag led a small band of Chaos Space marines, back when the leader of a Generic Chaos Space Marine squad could be led by a champion sporting a Chain Axe... And, maybe Generic Chaos Space Marines still can...? But not-so-much the Emperor's Children. 

So I probably won't find much use for him in 40K... but there's always Wrath & Glory (which I've been thinking a lot about again, lately, and has no such limitations!)

Keeper of Secrets - Greater Daemon of Slaanesh

I did say in the previous post the next one was going tone big and it was a secret... a Keeper of Secrets!!



This is a Greater Daemon of Slaanesh from Games Workshop



Why on Earth am I painting a Greater Daemon of Slaanesh? Well that's a bit of a secret too... it TOTALLY HAS NOTHING AT ALL TO DO WITH THE WRATH & GLORY GAMES CAMPAIGN I'M RUNNING! (Shhhhh.... Nothing to see here, carry on!)



My Heretic Astartes Kill Team are pretty obvious Slaanesh disciples and if I were ever to expand that into a 40K Detachment - they're end up being Emperor's Children or something similar. Actually if I were to ever do a 40K Chaos force, I'd probably be more interested in a Daemon Host - with maybe a few Chaos Space Marines and Cultists... I've got the Greater Daemon now!



I did a bit of converting on this beastie... this is a close up of said conversions. The original model came with a loin cloth. I always wondered why a Greater Daemon of Slaanesh - the Chaos God of Excesses - would bother with a loin cloth...?



To give you a sense of how big this beastie is, here is a Daemonette of Slaanesh that I painted over the last week as well... The Daemonette is a normal 28mm figure. Maybe I should have taken a picture of it with a tank....



Close-up of Daemonette.


Coming Soon to Tim's Miniature Wargaming Blog:

The Wrath & Glory campaign I'm going to be running on alternating Saturday evenings starts tonight... perhaps I'll have a report of how that went down?

Otherwise, it will be more minis being painted up for the Wrath & Glory Weekend campaign next weekend (which will also be used in the Saturday evening campaign, later on...)

Heretic Astartes Kill Team

Another Kill Team ready for action - A band of Heretic Astartes and Chaos Cultists.


Kill Team Xanthaleng



Kill Team Xanthaleng (all models are from Games Workshop)

The team are worshippers of Slaanesh - These warriors exist to experience - and inflict - the most extreme physical and mental stimuli through the medium of spectacular violence. They are searching for an Arcane Prize - Despatched by their powerful master, this kill team must acquire and eldritch artefact for their master or die trying! They are also utterly insane - Whether guided by ineffable prophecy, or finally pushed past the final boundary of rational though, the deeds of tehi skill team seem like madness to their foes.



Xanthaleng, Aspiring Champion, flanked by his two specialists Arngbaal and Zothiras

Xanthaleng, Aspiring Champion - Leader Specialist - Bolter, Bolt Pistol, Frag and Krack Grenades - 13 points. Xanthaleng is a True Believer; his faith in Slaanesh is unquestioning, his devotion absolute.

Arngbaal, Chaos Space Marines - Veteran Specialist - Bolter, Bolt Pistol, Frag and Krack Grenades -12 Points. Arngbaal has been fighting for many lifetimes of mortals and has honed her skills to absolute perfection.

Zothirag, Chaos Space Marines - Demolitions Specialist - Bolter, Bolt Pistol, Frag and Krack Grenades -12 points. Zoithirag is deranged; giggling and singing dark daemonic rhymes, he appears utterly insane.



Frexxor the Bold, Chaos Cultist Leader - Shotgun - 5 points

Chazmaz, Chaos Cultist Gunner - Heavy Specialist - Heavy Stubber - 5 points. Chazmaz is an unstoppable force; Brutish and monstrous, he blasts through everything in his path.

Molnier, Chaos Cultist - Autopistol, Brutal Assault Weapon - 4 points

Fezwhid, Chaos Cultist - Autopistol, Brutal Assault Weapon - 4 points



The rest are all regular Chaos Cultists with Autoguns.

Kyphis, Chaos Cultist - Autogun - 4 points

Zhoritus, Chaos Cultist - Autogun - 4 points

Sephuraz, Chaos Cultist - Autogun - 4 points

Mortemek, Chaos Cultist - Autogun - 4 points

Largall, Chaos Cultist - Autogun - 4 points

99 points in all... as soon as some gain new levels, the team will lose some cultists, but whatevs...


Coming Soon to Tim's Miniature Wargaming Blog:

Game Reports? Seriously. It's a long weekend. We have nothing planned. I really need to get some games in as ToonCon is just a WEEK away!!!

After that...? I am still working on and Adeptus Mechanicus Kill Team. I hope I can finish it up early next week and get to play it a few times before next weekend.
