Warriors of Slaanesh 01

To my big (huge actually...) surprise Chaos Army project is getting close to the end! 😳

After dragon ogres unit left the painting station I was thinking about taking a break from painting purple and pink for a while. The only unit left to be painted for 2000 points army was 14-men strong block of Chaos warriors. I dragged them out from the very bottom of the bucket of shame, undercoated some of them and just couldn't resist slapping some paint on these oldies. Must say those oldschool sculpts are just friggin' cool!

Painting these guys wasn't hard actually: my guess is ~85% of each sculpt is the armour, so you can get it done pretty fast using airbrush, drybrush or something similar. The unit dedicated for the current army project is 14-warrior strong, so looks like I am now over half done, but while searching for models I found 19 models which could fit the unit. That includes oldie Marauder models, some models from mid 90's (I guess), Heroquest piece and even that free metal Necron warrior which was once bonus for White Dwarf! I can imagine it's been sucked into Maelstrom, spat through the Chaos Gate in the far north and now it's still executing orders of it's evil lords - just under banner of Slaanesh... 👾

Looking at these guys I think I'll do my best either to find or convert 20th model so there's nice and solid block of Chaos warriors in the end. I still have spare mutilated daemonette rider left after Lobster Duke conversion - maybe my wizards can make her walking. 

And really cannot wait to paint something not purple...

And here're all warriors I've managed to find. Just need one more...

And below you can see Slaanesh warriors about to turn unit of mighty mummies into pile of bandages:
