Nexs' Painting/Converting and banter Log

Yeah That May be the way to go. Alternatively, I could freehand the designs with white/stencil then spray white, and use the yellow for the bubbles on the venoms. I might do a few little testers on some paper

I've got a few updates.
1. Got more models (can make an 1850 list now)
2. Finished converting and nearly finished painting Archon
3. Started painting raider. Hating the paint blending (life is painful without an airbrush!)

Finally finished the archon. T'was a labour of love.

Really nice job. I love the muted scheme you went for on this one

Helliarch

It's worth noting that the purple Archon has lost his Kabal due to consistent failure on the battlefield (ie: green/silver is the majority scheme from now on)

Green and silver looks good.

Yep agree the green and silver look good. I also think Archon's are pants in the new dex. I run a succubus now (and I think those are not too good either)

Really like the blue visor on the helliarch

thanks guys.
I have the rest of the hellions on the table at the moment, as well as a ravager. They will be the next things to paint. Hopefully i'll have some progress shots by the end of the weekend!

I have 5 Sslyth. Look out, everything!

Here's my Sslyth colour scheme. Based on a Tiger Snake

Original.
Can I call it that, if it's based on a real animal?
Anyway, I haven't seen anoth Sslyth that colour before.

Well executed too.

Finished : My command unit. 5 Sslyth escort to the Archon.


Note: each of the Sslyth have slightly varied patterned scales

Also note the "Rick Grimes" pistol action of the Archon.

Looks great! How do you equip your raider that you have the Sslyth and archon in?

Thanks
At the moment i've just been running it with Nightshields and Super Sails with a lance. It's primary job is to unload the guys into a unit with a sergeant (top up the soul trap before taking on the warlord). The secondary task is to pick up objectives and/or provide supporting fire. It's just a bummer when it gets immobilised!

Last night's painting desk

Got a bunch of models on the way:
Drazhar
Incubi
Medusae
Kymerae
MOAR Wyches (for funsies)

My presents have arrived!
Because reasons, Drazhar will be first cab off the rank.

Oh you tease, I look forward to seeing what you pull out of the bag!

Though I must say, surely Drazhar takes a limousine

I do plan on painting a raider especially for the incubi (i figure a raider is better because of the ability to take nightshields and the extra couple of inches for the disembark)

I have a few trials to paint for colour schemes of the incubi..... might need some imput


edit:
I'm thinking something like this...

Wow looks to me like you nailed it with the Incubi first time out! No one is going to doubt that they are elite badass's. You say you have a few trials what else did you have in mind?

This isn't my work! But it will be similar to this model.
I plan on them being to the same standard, though
