@pez5767 Thanks. Maybe I can tempt you start a new army with this - Second completed conversion / kitbash based on the excellent Stormcast Liberator kit - a mark of Khorne chosen. Back to the Slaanesh contingent of my army now. I need three armoured Slaanesh icon bearers; two for chaos warrior units, and one for a unit of Slaanesh chosen. First up a simple kitbash based on the "old" Dark Eldar Archon - I'm happy enough with this, but I don't think that it entirely fits what I wanted to achieve with this hobby project - the model doesn't have the feel of the old Realm of Chaos style in my opinion. So, it's time for a more involved conversion. I'm going to use the versatile SC Liberator kit again as the basis of the second icon bearer. First, work out a pose - Then incorporate some Slaanesh Realm of Chaos elements; faces on armour, Slaanesh iconography on armour plates and banded mail - What does everyone think? I reckon that I can't go too far wrong taking inspiration from some Jes Goodwin classics! MGP Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I've been wondering the same thing about my own army blog. I guess that existing forums such as Warseer use forum threads for army blogs as we have, but with TGA having a blog section that's probably more appropriate. However, I use Tapatalk to visit TGA and I only seem to be able to see the forums and the gallery (which I have to leave the Tapatalk app to view), not the blogs? MGP P.S. I like what you've done with your Stormcast, very clever and thrifty. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

@Stevewren - Thanks. The two realm of chaos books are well worth a look if you can get a hold of them - great reference tomes for anyone building a chaos army. Here's a close up of the undead "counts as mark of Nurgle marauders" - in the old fluff anyone who died of Nurgle's rot became a servant of Nurgle for a year and a day. Undead chaos champions were a character option too for any of the four gods. Comments welcome - especially people's thoughts on me using these in game - am I stretching WYSIWYG too far?.

Really impressive. You've chosen a good paint scheme and executed it very, very well. I'm a big fan of your bases - would you mind sharing how you made them / where you bought them? Could you run through the basing paint scheme too please - it's very simple and effective. MGP Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

@UrbanJesus - thanks for the feedback. I take your point about scale mail - not traditionally very chaos. However, scale mail will feature heavily on my Tzeentch models, and occasionally on my Slaanesh models, so I'm hopeful that it'll look OK on the odd chaos undivided miniature too. For Khorne and Nurgle marked warriors though you're spot on. It is relatively straight forward to remove the tabard on the Stormcast Liberators, but it's a bit more time-consuming to remove the pteruges. It is worth the effort though - I'm quite happy with how this w.i.p. Khorne chosen is coming along. MGP Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Here's a photo of just the diseased flagellants in the "marauder" unit. A series of fairly easy conversions / kit bashes from the Empire flagellant kit. What does everyone think? Do they look OK side by side with the classic realm of chaos metals? MGP Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Here's a photo of my first game legal unit - 14 marauders with the mark of Nurgle. I want my chaos force to look like a collection of individual war bands for the most part. Hence, this unit is a mixture of different minis to give it the feel of a rabble rather than a well-drilled military unit. I'm planning 7 more models for this unit, but first I'll work on getting some of my other units up to a game legal size. For those of you who play in tournaments - is this unit sufficiently WYSIWYG for gaming purposes? I'll post some detail pics in the next few days. Comments welcome.

@Dangermouse425 Thanks for the positive comment. The brass rod is 3/64 inch - I find that it works quite well for heroic 28 mm. 3/64 inch is a bit less than 1.2 mm, so I use a 1.2 mm drill bit. Hope that that helps. MGP

Here's the start of a champion for my mark of Nurgle chaos marauder unit (hand weapon and shield). Most of the bits are from the newer slaughter priest miniature. The kit bashing is complete. I just need to add some more corrosion "pockmarks" to the armour and sculpt on some green stuff - I'm thinking a largish Nurgle symbol as a belt buckle. MGP Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I'm really glad that GW released the Stormcast Eternals. Not because I want to make an army of them, but because I'd been searching for some good quality 28 mm heroic scale foot knights for conversion work for an age. Here's the first of my Liberator to chaos warrior conversions - hand weapon and shield, undivided. I had thought that he was complete, but looking at the photo, I need to add something between the right shoulder pad and the breast plate - probably a little chain mail. The plan is to eventually have 10 sword and board, undivided chaos warriors, each a different model. They'll be painted classic black and metallic and should tie in visually with Varanguard. Comments welcome. MGP Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Hi All, I'm a big fan of the old realm of chaos books, and I've been slowly building an army heavily inspired by imagery and army lists that were published way back then. This was originally going to be a warriors of chaos army for Warhammer Fantasy Battles, but with the advent of AoS I can more easily incorporate daemons etc too. Rather than give a long introduction to my aims for this army I'm going to write a little more with each post so as not to bore you all. So first up a kit bashed MoS chaos warrior with halberd and shield. I'm not 100% on my choice of head yet so it's just affixed with Blu-Tack for now. Criticisms and comments welcome.
