Warband Progress Part 5

Hi Friends,

Here are my latest additions to my Khornate chaos warband for the OldHammer Event, I have not finalised my warband yet but you can see that I should have quite a miniature pool to choose from.

My Chaos Champion of Khorne story.

I have named my Champion "Khordred" after the King Arthur's son in John Boorman's movie Excalibur, he was a spiteful little sod who was quite handy with his great spear, played by the late Robert Addie of Robin of Sherwood fame. (Did you know that John's Boorman's son Charlie Boorman played the young Mordred and still owns the golden helmet)

Khordred is the bastard son of the Albion "King Arthur Pundragon" and his Slaanesh worshipping sister "Whorgana", from their sordid union. When he came of age, living in shame, he found there was no place for him at the kings court and eventually was cast out by his father, he spent his time living a animal like existence wondering the chaos wastes, eventually the warping effects of the chaos wastes took it toll on the young Khordred and his face started to mutate into that of a dog.  Observing him the chaos god Khorne could not believe his luck, a son of Slaanesh's perverse union ripe for the picking. Khorne wispered promises of great power and revenge in return for blood of his kinfolk, Khordred was seduced and Khorne gifted him with Brass chaos armour with a helmet fashioned for his disfigured face and a mighty two handed hammer "Hate Bringer". He was last seen leading a chaotic warband across the chaos wastes in the direction of Albion, after infamously slaying Slaaneshi champion "Sir Perv'cervix" all Slaaneshi warbands of the wastes follow in his wake hoping to make contact and have their diabolical revenge.

Messing about with camera, feedback welcome

Original miniature can be seen here.

My inspiration for Khordred, the spiteful boy Mordred.

"You seek what Arthur wants? That thing they call the Grail?"

"He's no good, Mother. Take him to the tree."

Mordred miniatures.

Another Chaos Beastman for my Warband, I cannibalised this miniature for it's sword years ago so I had to drill a hole and insert a spear.

Original miniature can be seen here.

  p.s I have run out of highland tufts for the bases and have to order some more from Warlord games.

Warband Progress Part 3

Hi Folks,
More Beastmen for my Khornate chaos warband for the coming Oldhammer Event. I am almost out of Realm of Chaos Beastmen so the next additions will be pre-slotta Beastmen and Broo, old school all the same. I am not going to buy any RoC Beastmen from off Ebay as I am sure there is a price hike on RoC miniatures going on since the announcement of the Oldhammer Event. (Scandalous)

Warband Progress Part 2

Hey Friends,
As you know my Khornate chaos warband is progressing for the Oldhammer Event and here are the latest additions. I have tons of follower miniatures to paint and choose from, I still have to roll and find a suitable RoC chaos champion miniature now. I have a few duplicate chaos thug miniatures for swap which I will be posting on here and the B.L.O.O.D forum soon.

Guess what I have been painting? Warband Progress Part 1

Hello RT fans, Rogue Trader Adventurers I hear you say, WRONG!

Today's post is a bit off topic as I am having to run two painting projects at once and share the time equally between the two.  I do have several more RT adventurers 80% finished but these will be coming to you later in this week (Hopefully).  Anyway to all you Oldhammer fans out there you may be aware of my intentions of coming to the Oldhammer Event at the Foundry so I had to discipline myself and start painting my pool of Realm of Chaos miniatures to choose from. Here is my first chaos miniature of the new millenium, I am going with a Khornate Chaos Warband.

Chaos Beastman. (see here for catalogue entry)

There is loads of inspiration over on Orlygg's Blog so get over there and get reading.

p.s. PVA is still wet on the grass tufts at the time of photo, please ignore.

Enjoy
