Ariakassa is born

Well I have to admit a full sculpt was not happening, so I cannot claim that; however I had a brain storm and hit the bits box. So here she is, Daemon Princess Ariakassa. Oh no not the pretty floating apperition, the princess is the horror submerged; of course you would only discover that after walking love stricken straight into her terrible clutches.
 Not only have I made the princess, but I have busy with the whole army and its another paintjob done; with the acception that some more marble debris wants to be added to the rest of the army bases. This is the slanneshi force.
 and this is the nurgle bit (say hi to meg, she's waving)
 and the golgothan shit daemon.

So whats next for my daemons, well some final basing touches, the making of fancy movement trays so they work for fantasy too; then lots of lovely gaming.

Welsh Guards armoured recce squadron

Its early days for me and FOW, but Im happily building a late war british force. Heres a few early snaps, theres still details and markings to add to all of them and the two Cromwells have details and highlights to be done too.

The Daemons are coming!

It wouldnt be right for this blog with this name to start with anything other than the disciples of the dark prince.

So having finally found the love my daemon army deserves it has both seen a game and a paint brush. The force is being made on 40k bases but some cleaver movement trays will be made to make a fantasy army too, though the fantasy army will be slannesh only (yes thats a lot of daemonettes).
Anyway here are a few snaps of the works so far, with much more to come. I have done 15 daemonttes so far with another 15 soon to join them, sample image below. Then 3 fiends with 3 to come, just as soon as I find the missing pair of claws! Of course best bit yet the chariot, Im very happy with this; but there is one model with plans more ambitious than the chariot. Im attempting a rather exstensive sculpt for my daemon princess Ariakassa (rules keeper of secrets), but as with the previous attempts to make her it may well be beyond my skill; still Ive got to try.
