.... anyway...

Been a busy few months. Got a puppy. Started writing something. Did very little painting.

But I've made a little progress on the Delaque. Decided to embrace a simple, almost monochrome colour scheme.

Looking cool so far, keep it up!

Backtracking some, but your vampires are awesome! Love the conversion for your Delaque lady, as well.

Delaques are looking great. Monochrome colors work really well with that gang.

Good work on the delaque, they look like they’d be a home in the hive!

Looking evil!

Thanks!

Thanks. TBH I'd like to go back to the vamps. Couple of tweaks I'd like to make (and a couple of models to paint), but I'm going to finish the Delaque first.

Thanks. Someone mentioned it on the other page and I thought 'Hell with it. They should be all in black/grey anyway.

Cheers! I really need to revamp my Necromunda scenary...

Evil? Why these are an upstanding group of citizens intent on keeping the peace. There is no evidence of an increase in psudo-vampiric activity whatsoever.

Moar WIP: think I'm 90% there. A few details to pick out (because most of the detail I'm completely ignoring!)

Looking great! Super spooky.

Thanks! Might tidy them a bit, but I think they are done.



... resisting the urge to add a heavy stubber...

so cool!!! love the grimness of both your vampires and the Delaque.
Really love the zombie dragon with vampire on the base+rats, great way of doing it. Subscribed

Love the conversions! Looking very creepy and grimdark, which really makes sense for Delaque. Keep it up!

Super creepy! Great work Denny

Thanks! I'm not totally happy with the zombie dragon. The dragon is great, but the vamp doesn't quite fit. I'm debating changing her, but i don't want to screw it up...

Cheers! Might take a break from Delaque, though I do have enough bits for at least one more ganger.

Thanks! Creepy is what I do.

Bit of a change of pace now. Started work on rebooting an old project...

So I have a lot of the old skool (some *very* old) Chaos Space Marine Renegades.

I also ended up with a set of the monopose Chaos Marines (and two from Blackstone Fortress. So I've decided to use these as my Champions as they will be a bit beefier. The squads will then be filled out by whatever Renegades I have/can build. Only bits box permitted mind; this is a 'use up stuff' project.

Havoks/Raptors



I gave the Havok champs minimal equipment and helmets with oversized eye lenses. I really like the plague marine helmet on the raptor champ too; has a nice goggles vibe.



I wanted these champs to have a leaning towards each of the greater powers, but more like they have been marked than are actively seeking patronage. They need some greenstuff work.



Generic Undivided Champs, one with a Space Wolves vibe. The former has two pistols which triggers my OCD, but I justify it because he can't fire the bolt pistol anyway.

... STOP JUDGING ME!!!

Ahem.

Chosen Champ.



I was low on heads so here he is.

Exalted Champion.

Looking very cool mate. Love the spooky Matrix demon vibes of the Delaques and the CSMs are a nice mix of bits. Love a good bitz cleanout!

Nice work on the renegades, having the beefier guys be the leaders makes sense to me

Thanks! There is something very therapeutic about it. Got big plans in that direction, but currently I'm moving at a glacial pace. Too much on at the moment.

gobert wrote:Nice work on the renegades, having the beefier guys be the leaders makes sense to me

Thanks. On that note one more dude: a Chaos Lord. No idea if his equipment loadout is even legal in 10th, but this army is not going to worry about stuff like that. Rule of cool trumps other concerns.
Plus who needs a gun when you can do double melee?

Nice Mallex conversion, the head swap works a treat

Thanks! TBH I had limited heads left, but I think it works OK.

So this is what I have made:





As you can see a bunch are already painted... and a bunch left to paint. I have no idea when I'll start these mind, but its nice to have sorted this project (and perhaps more importantly put on a cap on it; I don't see myself making any more models.

Except one.

WIP: going to try using up my leftover bits to make... something...

Glad to see I’m not the only one that plans out their projects like that! They should keep you busy for a while when you get to them. Intrigued to see what the pile of Marines becomes

Thanks! So far it's becoming a mess...

Had to reposition the leg a little, but I'm liking where this is going.

The question now is wings or no wings.
(There is now a bonus for no wings in 10th, right?)

Truly chaotic

This looks very promising denny!

That is one chaotic mess! Looks great, the repose worked well, gives it a nice dynamic. I think wings would work, but equally it looks awesome as is… I’m no help on that am I!?

Thanks. Sort of making it up as I go along.

Thank you. I'm pretty pleased with hin, but have no idea how to paint him.

Thanks! Ultimately I decided I liked the 10th edition rules for the non-winged version. Plus I couldn't find a pair I liked.



Pretty pleased overall. He's rough as hell, but that's my "style". Or something.



I wanted him to be a bit cyber daemon so he has a part sentinel leg and a tendril tail. Plus some other bits (you can see the shoulder pad of the unfortunate possessed marine who has been taken over). I didn't want to favour any particular god, though I like to think he has aspects of all 4.

That greenstuffing makes that model unpleasant to look at.... in a good way! Super chaos-y.

What colours are you thinking?

Looks great, with the right paint scheme this will be a awesome model

BarryScott wrote:

Thanks! Yeah I'm not sure exactly; my Chaos Space marines are painted a (very inconsistent) red, so bits of the armour will probably be red. I guess greying shin, plenty of blood, some rusted metal, and shamelessselfplug a few details to taste.

But in reality it will probably sit in a drawer for a while.
