In the beginning...
Another blog! Yes indeed
I hope this will be the perfect tool to help me keep my hobby on track!
Many years ago I started a chaos army and the coming of AoS has thrown all kinds of fuel on my hobby fire!
Initially I started a slaanesh force. I knew the current fluff of the dark prince but I've always loved the garish and excessive nature of them.
So I've got a few of my slaaneshi goodies pictured below. Not much admittedly (that comes later!) but I love painting them.Oddly enough I hadn't really looked at the AoS starter box, not sure why, and had only looked at the Internet pics of the stormcast and Khorne bloodbound...WOW! The Khorne models are awesome! I was sold and picked up a set of the starter set models and set about getting them ready for paint...
Then I saw the new Bloodbound "heroes" and was totally sidetracked! I just had to paint some up!
In a freak chance I won some bloodletters on evil bay and so after dipping them in dettol to remove the "pro painted" finish I set about painting them.
Before I knew it I had all these done!
"But it's such a small force" you cry!
And this is my problem. Like many the hobby is way down a list of important real life things like marriage, kids and full time job etc...so I squeeze it in where I can.
I only get to paint at work on my breaks so army painting is slow going. But AoS is perfect for me as you can play incredibly fun games with only a few models!
So what next? Well, I have some more characters to work on, blood reavers, war hounds, Khorgorath and a shaggoth!
Plenty to keep my hobby juices flowing
I'll write more on this blog whenever I can. Before I sign off I'll leave a little something I got lost in recently.
Such a great model I had to paint it! Not quite finished but I couldn't resist adding a picture.
I'll be back soon!
