Slaves to Darkness army picture

 Got round to taking an army picture. Very happy with how they have turned out. 


So I have painted:

Daemon Prince

Chaos Lord on foot

Sorceror Lord

Darkoath cheiftan

1 unit of 5 Chaos Chosen

1 unit of 5 Chaos Chosen

1 unit of 3 Ogroid Theridons


Not too bad given how long I have had models in the past. Of course there is not a lot of variety, so it will need some expansion at some stage. Still, from the games I have played so far, they have done well once I got used to the rules.


The next project on the table is an old one, being a 2nd edition 40k army. Hope to have pictures soon!

Thanks for looking!

Slaves to Darkness 5 Project done...for now

Well I managed to finish off my StD army box. I have also managed quite a few games with it as well as a number of friends were happy to play Age of Sigmar for a bit of a change from 40k. I think it is because 40k has devolved into a massive amount of cognitive load to play a game, with all the army rules, faction rules, unit rules, strategems and turn by turn phase rules. So it has been nice to just push models around and roll some dice without all that.

Here is my second unit of Chosen, differentiated from the other unit by white cloth hafts.

I spent more time dry brushing the glow this time and I am much happier with it. I also redid the other units glowing weapons, as it was a little too strong.

This unit took me awhile to paint, as I was unsure how to proceed. Got there eventually though.

That finishes the boxed set! I do have plans to expand it, though I have no spare funds these days for any hobby so it is not likely to be soon.

I will try and round this off with an army pic soon. 

Thanks for looking!
