So, a while back I decided I wanted to build an army that:
1) had some special rules in it - I most often play IG, the Washington Generals of E:A
2) incorporated the nifty little noise marine figure
3) was fluffy, and
4) could act as a vessel of sorts for my somewhat twisted sense of humor
I settled on doing a black legion army, but one that would strictly be Emperor's Children, and therefore only include Slaanesh elements or those that I could justifiably modify to be vaguely Slaanesh. I also wanted to keep my degenerates somewhat moderate in their level of vice, so to speak. In musical terms, more David Bowie than Marilyn Manson.
I've been building, painting, and taking pics of these guys for awhile now, and this blog represents a response to the "sh*t or get off the pot" comments from Dave and others
So, without further ado: the raw material:
Otterware: nonordered nashorns to cart around the sickos:
Decimators, the idea for using a E40k LR sandwich shamelessly ripped off from these boards - A gentleman from Slovakia (but his forum name escapes me at the moment):
Land raiders, suitably chaosified with some 40k bits. Also, half of them are the metal chaos models, so I switched the sponsons:
Then, we have a BFG devastation cruiser (suitably christened "Space Oddity") and a proxy for the fighter and fighter bombers:
Can you guess what the plane is?
The color scheme I planned was dark grey/black with muted pink distinctions. They're pretty boys, but not too pretty.
