It´s been a looong time

 Oh my! Nine months since the last update. That´s terrible and I feel a bit ashamed. But I really haven´t had motivation to paint anything and because of that no reason to blog. There was also a lot happening during 2021 (I wrote a book and got on retirement just to begin with) and hobby activities were put on semi permanent pause.

Now with more time on hand because of my retirement I´m once again trying to activate myself. For that purpose I chose some of  my uglies models -  a group of Battle Masters Chaos thug archers. So if they turned out terrible I wouldn´t be too sad about it.

Here are the first six of them. Very simple paint job on very simple minis. Pastel purple armor pieces, black leather, browns for bow and finally pink hair. Old school Slaaneshian style.


Will paint another four of these and add a leader and a standard bearer to get a unit of twelve. That Marauder chaos thug standard bearer seems to be pretty rare and expensive so I might just do a little conversion myself.

Anyway, it´s good to be back. I hope this new energy doesn´t fade off.

  1. Welcome back! I know you say they're ugly (and yes, they are) but for some funny reason I've always had a soft spot for these particular monopose fellows. And always good to have a bit of missile support for your chaos army...

    1. (And just to be clear, I'm agreeing that the models are ugly, not saying that the paintjob is ugly - in fact you've managed to bring an impressive amount of detail out of these lumps of plastic, good work!)

    2. Hi robotforaday! Thank you for your comments. There sure aren´t many choices for missile support in the chaos army list.

  2. I hadn't seen these archers before. So thanks for posting. They like cool the way you painted them. Cheers, Karl
