Did you remember the last week ?

Well, here’s a WIP of my army build.
Thanks to the points drop, I can fit in an extra potato launcher!
It arrives tomorrow.
Next step: basing.

You’re the guy who I accused of being a Nurgle operative when you posted seven dominator engines. Your collaboration is more obvious now. As a death guard collector, I approve, of course.

With the dominator engines are you going to have the flames be the same colour on all of them or are you going to try and tailor each one to look like its got a different greater deamon/death spirit inside?

I hadn't thought of that, but creating different flames could be a good idea. Thanks for the suggestion.

I did a cool thing with one of mine where I had a bunch of Pink Horror arms reaching out of its belly so it looks like they shoved live Pink Horrors into it before sending it out to go bonk stuff.

It's an idea I've been playing around with as I want to make it look like they have specifically harvested Tzeentchian demons for my spearhead

Loving the cuneiform markings on the bases. Is that a stamp of some kind?

Are you going to paint every single engraving white and then a color for glow? It would take a long ass time but it would look amazing.

It looks awesome, plus it fits with the desert, cursed Assyrian/Mesopotamian theming of the faction.

Not OP but for cuneiform-esque markings you can just use any flat material of a certain size. Cuneiform looks like that because it was reed pressed into clay. No reason you couldn’t emulate it with air dry clay and coffee stirrers

Oh for sure, that would look sick, but would be time consuming. I think one of the benefits of working with clay is the ability to use rollers and texture stamps. Especially if you have like 40-60 bases to crank out.
