My Tzeentch Sorcerer enters into my 'Hall of Honour.'
It is finally finished...
The picture isn't of the best quality, and the face isn't the best either (but then, I think that's at least a little down to the sculpt).
That's two models finished!
I think that's a record for any of my armies to be fair!
Expect little progress for a while as I work on several other things at once!
Until then!

While doing the shields I also did some work on the Warriros...
Usually I'm not a huge fan of mutations on models, but I felt that some well placed, thematic/ relevant mutations here and there would really sell the Tzeentch and CHaos theme of the Warriors, who are a little too 'clean' usually.
Speaking of, the 5 'clean' Warriors.
Just a little Green Stuff work to fill in the mold lines on the fur.
The next 5 were my 'front rank.'
Back in the old Warhammer Fantasy Days, the front 5 models usually formed the first rank and therefore had to be slightly better looking XD
This was a simple kitbash; I took a bit from the 40K possessed Chaos Space Marines to replace his combat weapon.
The next was also a quick kitbash, taking the head from the Chaos Spawn kit
As for my 'Command,' I have a musician; using the head from the old metal Chaos Space Marine Lord model...
The squad leader/ vertan/ sergant/ champion
And finally my personal favortie, the banner bearer.
For this guy I sculpted my own tentacle arm to hold the banner pole.
This was done by using my usual Green Stuff Mix and using the rolling tool made by Green Stuff World.
And that's the whole unit built.
Left the shield and banner off for painting (like that'll happen)
And with that, my 1000 pts Aos army is fully built.
Since building it, I've changed a few of the spells and items round, but I'm fairly happy with the list.
It is really fun to play with, and I'd like to think it represents the narrative I've set for the army quite well.
Though, I do plan on going back to it at some point and having a tinker around here and there, see if I can't make it a bit more fitting.
But that's all for now.
Remember, if you want to see what I'm currently working on, I'm much more active on Instagram, and I stream painting sessions on my Twitch, so click those links for more stuff!
Catch you soon

There be daemons.
Screamers and Flamers to be precise (as well as a sneaky Gorebeast chariot later on)
The flamers got the same treatment my Chaos Warriors did when it came to basing, with an added bit of brass etching.
The Screamers on the other hand were another thing entirely.
Firstly; I hate flying basses and stands in general.
While the later is kinda important, I decided to sack off the clear basses.
Secondly; The flying basses are around 28/ 32mm. Not sure which.
Either way, far too small.
I took this opportunity to upgrade them to bigger basses.
This gave me some room to experiment too, which was awesome.
I finally got to use the dremel!
I decided to use slate to anchor the flight stands in and give some weight to the Screamer so they don't just fall over constantly.
Even with these big chunks of slate and the, now standard, basing scheme, they felt a little...empty.
Luckily I had already been messing about with push molds and casting various bitz.
They didn't turn out too good if I'm honest, however, they're perfect for basing!
I love that runic circle from Eldrad's base so much!
Anyway, I had to finish off the mortal contingent of my army too, so I built and based the Gorebeast chariot too.
I wanted to make it more Tzeentch themed, so I stuck a icon of Tzeentch from the Chaos Space Marines sprue on one of the poles.
I've got some more ideas for this thing, but they'll come later.
All of these basses are going to get some crackle paint before they get undercoated and painted.
That's it for now.
Feedback, conversation and constructive criticism is welcome,as always!

I've played a couple of games with it so far.
Destiny Dice are amazing (Yay Glimpse The Future).
1 got slaughtered in my first, but because of the DD's I managed to keep bringing horrors back on every bravery check.
My opponent. ended up killing about 37 from a unit of 10 XD
In my second game I was on the back foot until I had 1 good turn of magic, inflicting 22 mortal wounds from 3 spells.
Things that I've learned:
1)
Pink horrors are kinda pointless... blue horrors are better value.
PH's would be great if you didn't have to pay the points for the BH's you split into, but alas, you do.
Going forward I'll replace PH's with BH's and just use Chaos Marauders for battleline.
2)
Big things are hard as fuck to kill.
The Gorebeast isn't big enough.
I need to add a Lord of Change as soon as I can haha
Anyway, that's it.
If you have any feedback, constructive criticism or advice, then I'm all ears.
( I know I should be running Arcanites and Tzangors, but I don't have the money for them XD)
Until next time .
