Well, technically this post does not conform to the Oldhammer/Herohammer vibe that I was going for with this blog, although I would ask you to excuse that transgression. If memory serves, I started constructing this chaos army in about 2011-2012. It was meant for Warhammer Fantasy 8th edition, but I never ended up playing a game with them. I always desired a chaos warriors army which was heavily based on the Norse, and this ended up being it. I only painted parts of this army, the rest was commissioned. I wanted the paint scheme to be very ‘khorne.’ Dark reds, bronze and black. However, you will see that I also included some nurgle units since they are so darn cool.
I mounted the models on pieces of cobblestone-imprinted plastic (Wills Crazy Paving) to make it appear as though they had just raided an Empire village. I am now building said village and plan to take some dramatic shots of the models in it after the buildings are painted.
This blog post is as much a compiled catalog (for me) of everything contained in the army as it is a post intended to show the work for the enjoyment of others. Therefore, I hope you enjoy!

ReplyDeleteThanks! I’m quite pleased how the army turned out. Next model I’m planning is Archaon on horseback to lead them all
