Shi Guy Posted January 15, 2018 Report Share Posted January 15, 2018 I had a classic Khorne CSM army way back in the days of 3rd edition. It was fully painted in the classic World Eater paint scheme, complete with Rhinos, Juggernauts, etc. Then I grew bored of 40k and foolishly sold the army. Flash forward to today and I want to put together another Khorne army. Granted, it helps that Berzerkers are pretty decent again. Unfortunately, the official Berzerker models haven't changed at all, looking incredibly dated, so I opted to use a quick kit bash of the AoS Blood Warrior model as my Berzerker. I didn't want to do the standard Khorne color scheme, so I spent some time browsing for other ideas. As I was perusing through google, I came across this image of a WoW Death Knight, and the army theme was born. This was the first model I painted for the army. He was originally used as a Paladin in a DnD campaign, now he's my Arthas look-a-like Dark Apostle. A shot of the first completed squad of Berzerkers A group shot of the Berzerkers and HQ. Korghos Khul serves as my Exalted Champion My Obliterators. Inspired by the Khorne Lord of Skulls. I'm working on a couple of Rhinos now. After that I'm waiting on my order of Chaos Knights to arrive, which will be used as Chaos Bikers. Thanks for looking! 16 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottshoemaker Posted January 15, 2018 Report Share Posted January 15, 2018 That is a nice looking army. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRider Posted January 15, 2018 Report Share Posted January 15, 2018 Nice work! The Blood Warriors can convert to 40K aesthetic surprisingly easily. I used them to make some Possessed, and I was surprised at how well they came out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psilence Posted January 15, 2018 Report Share Posted January 15, 2018 Looks great! It's awesome how well the AoS dudes convert over. Looking forward to more pics. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
generalripphook Posted January 16, 2018 Report Share Posted January 16, 2018 I love the scheme. it reminds me of people that paint black and white armies for old historical world war 1 games. What I noticed worked well for those guys is they used a slight dash of a brighter color. Being Khorne maybe put a small spot of red here and there on a guy. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like, say, some blood spatter here and there? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shi Guy Posted February 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 Thanks for all the kind words fellas. I have just a couple small, impromptu, updates. First is a shot of my (mostly) finished counts as Khorne Blood Slaughterers and a group shot of everything I've completed so far 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shi Guy Posted April 11, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2018 I haven't had much time for painting lately, but I've been trying to get in an hour here or there every so often. As a result, these guys have been stuck in limbo for a bit. They're not done yet, but they're getting close.

Good point. I just meant the bikes. I still need to finish a squad of cultists, some bloodletters, and a couple HQ before the army is finished. After that I wouldn't mind adding a Lord of Skulls... I'll try and put together a group shot as soon as I can 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
