Power behind the Thro... er Coven

In a perivious posting I mentioned that there something big on my paiting table. That something is this Keeper of Secrets that can be used as a summoned daemon in my genestealer cult army.

 A pretty big lump on old metal it required quite a lot of pinning and filling. Paint job is mostly contrasts with regular metals and some gray and white for highlights. Skin is thinned Shyish Purple, Yellow parts are Iyanden Yellow and Black Templar for used for leather.

Note the face desing on the head piece.

As mentioned daemons can be added to a genestealer cult army as summoned creatures. Greater daemons are among the most powerful creatures in the old WH40k so using them would propably be justifiable in a narrative scenario. Perhaps inquisition taking on a cult or something like that.

So indeed - the power pehind the Coven.

Lazy July

It´s been a few weeks since my previous posting. And a very lazy hobby month so far. There are severel WIPs on my painting station at the moment but these three chaos hounds are really the on things that I´ve completed as of lately.

When I get their number to six they will join the Genestealer Cult Army as a chaos gift to one of the coven members - perhaps the Patriarch himself. I´ve put them on square bases as I´m going to using them in WFB too. Check out my article on Chaos Beastmasters if you share my interest on animal handlers.

The first one is a reptilian headed one with hooved legs. His main color is Shyish Purple applied in multiple thin layers. Second hound is Black Templar body and Iyanden Yellow spikes. The flayed dog was painted with thinned Volupus Pink.

Hoping to complete some beastmen and something big and horned in the near future...
