Chosen chaos knights #2

Because of some recent distractions from so-called real life (of course we all know reality is a lie) and unexpected job orders, miniature painting planned for July got slightly delayed but I have finally managed to get the rest of Chaos knights unit done! Which means Chaos army project got ~400 points crossed off the "to do" list.

The unit got champion and 5th knight, so the squad is even more devastating.
As you can see the leader got slightly darker armour, so it looks different compared to the other knights. Darker armour also makes better contrast with blazing sword (I gave it a try befoer on Mishima Demon Hunter model and I really like it). And since it's champion, it got pretty fresh pony, with undamaged barding (at least yet).

As for the other guy it's old chaos knight model from 4th edition of the game. It's kinda static but I must admit I really like that sculpt - I actually regret I don't have standard bearer from this line, 'cause unit could surely make use of it during the battle.

It was fun making simple conversions (as mentioned before - models came with shield arms missing) but while making them I should've checked would it be possible to place models close. Turns out it's not possible because of chmpions mutated left hand... 🙄
But since there's also exalted champion planned to be added (which will be riding steed of Slaanesh) I hope to assemble it in the way it can be placed next to mutated hands. 

And last but not least - big thanks to Maniexite for help in replacing molten steed and everything 😉




The last one is pretty blurry - it's either because the heat of the enchanced blade or because knights are riding just too fast for my camera. Sadly I am too lazy to re-take the shot... 😶


Heil Slaanesh! 🤘🏻😈🤘🏻

    It will be quite a challenge posing Red Duke so unit champion can ride on his right sire but cannot wait to see is done!
