I really like their armor! How'd you get that metallic blue look?

A simple blue wash over silver for the blue! I try to keep things as simple as I can for this army, and the blue armor is one of the easy part

Hey guys, after working on my other armies a bit and taking a break during the holidays, I went back to build some Chaos. I build the other 10 Warriors for my core unit, but that's relatively boring so no pics of that! After that I built my Chosen unit, so here they are; I got two pack of 10 off eBay (both with full command), one kit was missing a few weapons and heads, but I was able to get all 18 out of that with some converting. Plus they're all metal instead of Finecast! Top down view; Not a big fan of the mutated champion, and his axe head was huuuge so I changed that. Head and new axe if from the warshrine kit; Here's the 3 Chosen that I didn't have weapon for, so I made them new one. Made with the banner from the Warrior kit, the thickness of the pole match with the other albeit they're lacking details (don't have any knights lance or the like so used what I had around). Also the blades looks plain here, but they all have rivets and one have a Chaos arrow on the blade (middle one, barely noticeable in the pic). Forgot to take a picture of the second standard bearer converted into a regular trooper, but he allowed me to get all 18 models for my unit I have build other things, will try to get some more pics in the following days.

Here's a few more pictures of other models I've done. First are my two main Characters, which I based my list around; A BSB on demonic steed, using one of the sexiest Chaos model around, and a sorcerer lord on disk, using an old Tzeentch champion on disk. Next up, a chariot. Nothing special, just an old metal model; And to finish off, some Dragon Ogres, again using old models (always help when you get them for free); To go with them, a Shaggoth with extra hand weapon; Trying to get a better look at the axes (made by just cutting the great axe in two): And to finish it off, since I had all those Dragon Ogres, why not bring in Kholek to the party? This is a Mierce Miniatures figure that I got from one of their Kickstarter for cheap (it was 20-30$ during the Kickstarter or something ridiculous like that); And a Dragon Ogres family pictures for good measure;

That shaggoth looks better on a 50x75 anyway. Nice cork.

Love it.
I really appreciate the use of the old marauder dragon ogre. Those aren't very common these days.

Yeah that older Dragon Ogre bring some diversity at least But I find Dragon Ogres not common no matter what model used I have 7 more in my bits box, but don't really have a spot for them in my lists. If only Kholek could make them core!

The Shaggoth with 2 hand weapons has come off very naturally.
I really really like your unit of Chosen. I likewise never liked the claw hand champ. Yours looks much better. The Chosen unit has a really menacing silhouette with axes protruding all round.

Thanks Yeah for mutation, I'll leave that to Forsaken and Spawns, the best of the Chosen doesn't need some weird claw Thankfully it was rather easy to remove an replace.

Great collection! Now you have to put the paint on. The massive Dragon Ogre is perfect of the Suneater.

Ah yes, painting. I'm a bit fickle when it come down to what I work on, often jumping from one project to another Right now I'm not planning to paint anything chaos sadly, so that'll be for another time!
