Cultists!

With the release of the Dark Vengeance box set and the soon to be released Chaos codex, I decided to start on a new army. With an absolute love of the Emperor's Children legion, I decided to theme my chaos army around them, with backup support from units of Slaaneshi cultists.

Four Cultists with their base colors on, still missing the wash and wetland base.

Another set of four, painted and washed, with some minor highlighting done to re-brighten colors. Basing started with sand.

Four finished cultists, wetland bases built from the Secret Weapon Miniatures wetland basing kit.

Most of the colors on these models were done using FolkArt craft paints with some pieces done in GW paints.

Companion Cube for the Win

Alright, so not exactly 40k related but it's still hobby progress of a sort.  Little over a year ago I got rather bored and I wanted to celebrate the release of Portal 2 since it was going to be out in a couple of months. So what better way to celebrate, than by building myself a Weighted Companion Cube.(http://half-life.wikia.com/wiki/Aperture_Science_Weighted_Storage_Cube)

Easier said than done, well...not actually, was pretty easy as well, just time consuming. Built completely out of foam of one sort or another, foam board making up the base of the cube. While the interior was reinforced with blue polystyrene sheets.

The same blue foam was then cut to size and shape to form the corners, along with the help of some duct tape and glued into place. The center circle was made of the same foam board as the core.

 

 That is pretty much where the project left off last year, with the exception of beginning to pain with latex paints and stopping as it got too humid for the summer.

Now we come to yesterday. Long boring story cut short, I had been using the cube as my coffee table until I cleaned and decided that it was the perfect time to finish it up.  A couple quick coats of paint on the corners and core sections, before cutting out a stencil and painting the trademark hearts.

 Finished Product:

 

Painting update

Alright, a couple new pictures to put up today now that I've finished painting on them.

First up on the list, my two Lunar Class Cruisers for Battle Fleet Gothic. So here are the Nemesis and Celestial Ignis(Heavenly Fire)

And while not a lot of difference between the two of them, here is each one by itself.

And the final model for the day, my new Master of the Fleet.
