    Lost and Damned : Daemonic Legion of Tzeentch

    Hey! Last post regarding this project. I totalled 8 month of work to achieved this Daemonic force : 130 troops, 10 Mounted Troops, 6 Monster and 1 Daemonic engine. I play these models in modern 40K version and the great satisfaction is they're cool to play and difficult to predict on the battlefield. My opponents struggling to anticipate my actions, blasts from Greater Daemons are incredibly powerful  and the splitting capacity of lesser daemons is a real nightmare...

    Lost and Damned : Demonic Legion of Tzeentch

    Silver Towers of Tzeentch : Again the 3D printing technology is one of the best thing for the modern hobbyist. Initially Silver Towers wasn't integrated to the project but the tentation was to hight for me and my expectation at this moment was to add 2 of them. When I received the printed models (resized 700%), at the first glance I understood they need additional details. So I started to work with greenstuff on the first one, 2 weeks of work. I abandoned the idea of 2 tower, a single one is enough. (I have one to sell, if any body interested contact me.) 


    Lost and Damned : Demonic Legion of Tzeentch

    Hey ! Greater Deamon, Prince Deamon and Big Guys are the master pieces of this army. Characters models from the 80's are a bit small and the arriving of the 3D printing is a real revolution in the Hobby scene (Oldhammer or not). 

    I used the Champions of Tzeentch range to convert them in Greater Deamons or Biomecanic Daemons, they're resized 200%. Tony Ackland Fan Sculpt resized 200%. The standard Greater Daemon with resculpted head is resized at 143% and his wings resized at 187%. Magnus the Red is resized at 225%.

    Lost and Damned : Demonic Legion of Tzeentch

    Second part of the project with special troops. Flamers are the big chunk from collector point of view. very difficult to find, I finally catch a bunch of them and make some copy in green stuff to reach a total of 18 flamers. I added 2 converted Characters, first one based on a Chaos Sorcerer with Flamer gifts from Tzeentch God. The second one come from the renegade range with an extra Flamer arms.

    Disc riders unit is nothing more than my recycled unit from my WHFB Chaos army, just added 2 new models to obtain a unit of 9 riders. Two renegade riders with extra Pink Horrors arms









    Lost and Damned : Demonic Legion of Tzeentch

    Hey ! It's time to share the work done during the 8 last months, sorry for the lake of update on the blog but I was very busy by my job during this period and I set aside blogging for I don't know which reason... I privileged painting models during the weekend than take pictures to update the blog, definitely not the way to run a blog. Now the tzeentch project is closed and I took all the pictures required in a single shooting session.   I'll write several articles in the next few days to cover the full description of the different units : Troops, Special units, Characters and army pics, stay tune!

    Demonic Legion of Tzeentch is an atypical choice, the very low resource of similar project on the web is an evidence of disinterested from community regarding this Demonic faction. Quite difficult to find inspirational pictures on social media too. This situation can be explained by the fact that it not so easy to find these miniatures in suitable quantities for standard WHFB / 40K armies. Harder than collect Khorne or Nurgles models in my opinion. Horrors splitting can also be a reason of discouragement for collectors.

    Modeling : Pink and blue Horrors are the main troops of the Legions, I converted some miniatures to break the redundancy of 30 Pink models and 60 blue models. Extra faces, Mixed body with flamers and Horrors splitting process scene. Kevin Adams is the main sculptor of the 80's range, it allow me to use previous molts of Shield Faces  sculpted by him for Foundry Miniatures. The aim is replace the original faces by those on these marvellous shields.

    Painting : To well prepare the painting of a Tzeentch army, I had to refresh my painting range. I spent the 3 last years to on Khornate mixed force... Red, Red, Red, Bone, ... I had to take new painting habits :) To be honest, it very interesting to investigate new colors associations and combining. It require a bit of investment. The target is to apply 3 differents tons on each models. For example : 3 differents tons of Pinkish colors for Pink horrors. Each ton composed by 3 colors and 1 shade (purple).

    Arabian nights

    Hey boys! It's been a while since the last post. Don't worry, I'm still in the running. I just haven't the time to take pictures of my paint job... some Tzeentch goodness :) Today I show you some models from a Kickstarter  for a Skirmish game created by a group of nice guys.

    I painted this warband  in one week during the Christmas break. These are accessible models easy and pleasant to paint. Far from the current nightmare ish crazy details miniatures.

    This painting session reminded me great Magic The Gathering moments. Characterful models from Abbasid's Period versus timeless cards artworks from Arabian Nights expansion, what a lovely era!  I recommend to to paint your miniatures with the 1001 Nights Audio Book in background.


    Best of : 'The Seven Voyages of Sinbad the Sailor', 'The Tale of the Three Apples ' and 'The City of Brass'

    The whole warband, 12 miniatures
