Winds of Change and Pestilence
Fourth Edition Tzeentch Flamers and Champion models painted as bright as is humanly possible. You can't get it any better.
Last week we played our first The Old World game and we didn't like it. We're going to try Warhammer Renaissance in October, but definitely didn't enjoy the page-turning nightmare TOW was (we talked about this on Mastodon recently).
Anyway, I finished the 3 Flamers (did their job stoping the Bretonnian cavalry for 3 turns while the Plaguebearers charged the Men-at-arms.
I also painted a Tzeentch Champion that will be the lore-nexus between my Tzeentch worshippers, the Ogres and the Dragon Ogres (I'll write down the story eventually). Here's him along with the Sorcerer (in the game he was a Tzeentch Herald on foot) and the first flamer I painted.
Painting this yellow and green armour has been the most pleasant thing I've done lately, and I can't wait for the next model. Also, I'm very proud of how I managed to copy the skin (on the legs, the arm is quite MEH) from the old magazines and my memories of the standard flesh tone from the nineties.
For the time being, his name will be Galactus Wafflefeet, Half Ogre Warchief. Awarded with the “Most likely Mega-Man” price in the Chaos Wastes’ 89 Prom.
And now what? 4 more Plaguebearers so the unit of 12 is complete, then the Great Unclean One and the Dragon Ogres. Unless the Marauder Beastmaster I bought arrives in the mail, then he's the priority (because it's my favourite model of all time). Thanks to Heikki from Finland who found me on the Oldhammer Forum and accepted a reasonable offer for the model.
Want to mess with my schedule for good! Sell me some good old Bob Olley's Harpies or a Ngaaranh Spawn of Chaos! I dare you!
