I used skeleton kit shields as well This is actually what I'm doing right now. I actually don't mind the Marauder aesthetic, so I'll probably wind up getting more of them in time, but having 80 painted pox walkers at my disposal right now is hard to say no to. #godblesspoxblossom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaron Schmidt Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 I had better than average luck with the Plaguedrones at Midwest Meltdown. I still find getting a decent amount of members of a 6 demon unit into combat difficult. I've been thinking about running a sort of MSU build with them. I have enough to do 4x 6 Plaguedrones which could be cool. I've been in good shape to have extra CPs in most games, so giving two or more units Grandfather's Joy is feasible when needed. It kind of insulates them from getting wiped out by a good charge by enemy units too. The most I should lose is 3. Has anyone tried a build with multiple 3 packs of Drones? What were your experiences like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm trying to figure out my color scheme for my newly assembled force and this one is really interesting. What was it, black undercoat, progressive layers of lighter purple dry brushing and then washed with violet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was it, black undercoat, progressive layers of lighter purple dry brushing and then washed with violet? I'll get the exact colors when I get back, but black primer, dark grey base coat, agrax wash, dark pink drybrush, twice, and then spot drybrushed tan flesh. The mix of brown and pink turns it purple but there is no purple. See below. Arrowhead and Camelia pink are Martha Stewart The mystery color is the third one over. It's kind of a rose pink, and goes on thin. The next one is unmarked but is Ceramcoat "medium flesh." The one on the end is "Fleshtone." The last two are not used for the basic skin tone, but in combination with the rose and medium flesh, I use these four to paint all skin lesions and boils.

The other 2 work fine with the 1/8" for now. I just remembered I have a few nurglings to paint and put on this guy, so he's not 100% done, but I think Glottkin deserves my attention more right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to try to speed paint this army, so I'm thinking dark brown primer, dry brush dark pink, agrax shade, drybrush dark pink again then highlight tan. I hope it comes pretty close.

grungolah Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 (edited) No harm in going a larger size. You will need green stuff to keep some of the magnets in place. If you havent done that before, I recommend adding superglue between the model and green stuff while you are sculpting. Saves a step, because the green stuff usually falls off in a week.

Rift Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 List I'm testing at the moment, Archaon General Glottkin Harbinger of decay Sorcerer lord on horse Skarr Marauders 40 Blight Kings 5 Blight Kings 5 Only had 1 game so far and was great fun, marauders with blades and fleshy abundance were crazy good. Not entirely sold onSkarr, but he did end up being a decent tarpit. My previous list I used a blood stoker instead for the 1st turn charge with Archaon, but this list seems to want to stay together for the overlapping auras. Thoughts?
