Tale of Gamers: A beginning



So, I am engaged in a battle of nerdery and productivity with James over at Gonzo History Gaming. I ahd a bit of a think, and I've sketched out my army as:

Lord of Slaanesh on Daemonic Mount
10 Chaos Marauders
10 Chaos Warriors
10 Forsaken
2 Chaos Spawn
Hellcannon

First up on the block are the Forsaken, as they're already half assembled. You'll notice I'm sticking to square bases with this army for compatability with older systems. In order to stay on target, I need to get them all painted by the end of August. I'm continuing to assemble the second five while I paint up one as a test to check I'm happy with my planned colour scheme.

By halfway through the month, I should have half painted and the others assembled, and be forging ahead with prepping the Chaos Marauders and Chaos Spawn for painting.

This is an ambitious pace, but it is not impossible. Wish me luck!

    1. It is achievable, but it's more than I've painted all year!

  3. For the spawn consider grey scale washing, they look pretty suited to it, especially as you can pull off fasy suitable god specific marked paint jobs with it too!

  4. Good luck! If you get done even half of what you've planned this month, you'll be doing really well.
    Can't wait to see the results.
