CHAOS!.....Time for a Minotaur

 Seriously love the pose and detail of this Minotaur.  And the thing is absolutely huge.

 There is detail covering this model, everywhere.

 So, yea its been awhile since I have done anything beastmen related, but I still enjoy them.

 That axe is massive and so cool.

And more to follow.

Newest of My Warriors of Chaos...The Banelord Cometh

I recently sold a few of my older Beastmen, so I thought I would replace them with a newer model, this is from Maelstrom Games, one of their Banelords.  Its the first of two models that I recently picked up from them for my Warriors of Chaos army, rise of the mutants.  This was also my first time working with their resin models.  Quality is pretty good, not too many imperfections.  Mold lines are in places that you can mostly get to.  The axe handle was severely bent, so boiled some water and bent it somewhat back to shape.

The points of the horns do have air bubbles.  I'm going to attempt to fix that with some GS work.  As you can see the basing is using my fake rocks and ballast.  I added Italian Seasoning, and some Secret Weapons loose skulls.  I really love the heavy plate armor all over on it.

As you can see above the model is huge.  At $35 it better be.  I've placed it on a 50 mm square base.  My plan is to use it as a unit filler for my Warriors or Chosen unit, I think its fitting with all of the armor on it.  And it emphasises the mutant theme.  To give an idea of scale, to the left is Tre Manor's Red Box model, also in the army about 25mm, and to the right is Avatars of War's 32mm Marauder champion.  All of which will be in the same army. 

So now my mostly GW army has another manufacturer to accompany Avatars of War, Reaper, Red Box Games, Enigma, Secret Weapons. 

Old Stuff Wednesday - May : Khorne Minotaurs

Ah the Minotaurs, lover them or hate them, mine I modeled just plain mean.  I want them big and nasty.  What says big and nasty more than an overly huge axe.  The axe was modeled out of plasti-card and used the normal spiked club weapon as the shaft.

Since I was playing Khorne back then, you need to have trophies on your models. 

So I put trophies all over them.  Made them look lkike they have actually collected all of this stuff on the kills that they made on the battle field.

I used parts from all over the place, Ogres, gors, dryads, zombies, goblins. 

I added the long flowing hair. The big tusks on the belly plate.

I even gave a couple of the models hooves.  They are not the nicest looking models, but I think I pulled off the mean theme.
