Well, I never thought the day would come when I would have all twenty cultists complete, but today is that day!
And here is a small group shot of the last five I completed.
Not sure what is next, but the temptation to complete all of the Dark Vengeance stuff (at least the chaos side anyway) is pretty strong.
Just two more to go!
This guy was turning out okay until I did the mask. I may go back and re do the stitching around the face.
Well, number sixteen finished.
Not great, but not brilliant either. Don’t really like this new camera I am using if I am honest. Doesn’t quite take pictures as well as my old one!
Ah well, first world problem!
Well, this is a truly awful paint job.
I still need to finish the gas mask thing, the silver needs to be touched up, but I am trying to get the cultists finished quickly.
I haven’t had much painting mojo recently, but yesterday I spent the afternoon painting a cultist.
Still have seven more of these to do, so painfully boring!
So here is a quick update pic of Kor Phaeron.
I really haven’t enjoyed painting this so far, not because the sculpt isn’t great (it is) but because the low quality of the cast has really damaged a lot of the details. I am going to continue paitnign him for the time being, but I won’t be surprised if the model doesn’t get finished, or gets rushed.
The lesson here is just because you may be able to get something cheap, it doesn’t mean you should.
Just recently I was given the opportunity to pick up a pretty poorly cast Kor Phaeron.
Now, I have my suspicions regarding this mini, but given I didn’t really have to do much to get it, I thought “might as well”.
As you can see, here is some of the repair work I have had to do.
My view on this is that I will eventually pick both Erebus and Kor Phaeron up, so this is a good test mini for pre heresy Word Bearers colours. I also love Kor Phaeron as a character, he’s a real bad guy, not someone being miss-lead or given a bad time which lead to bad choices, he is 100% pure villain. And I love it!
