What are you doing today hobbywise?

Did a bit shading the horns on the Bloodletters today, also doing a miniature hunt for a model from GW that will fit for another MediEvil character. So far the Daemon Prince is the closest I can to the Stained Glass Demon. Just lacks the glass structure.

 

check out the upcoming chroneas model from mantic games.

 

As to myself, I primed 16 stormcast for my current commission slate. I also made and built up 5 multibases to expand my army, filled a basing order and shipped it, and started painting 5 of those stormcast.

I'm off to play in a three 2K point game mini-tournament/game day at a local game shop I've not visited before.

 

Did some highlighting this morning, now looking at the pictures posted so far of the 12 hour painting challenge from my local GW store.
No ones doing Seraphon
Mostly skeletons and Necrons, SCE are another

 

Considering I had to google it just now to figure out what it was... nope

 

Of course. But the link between Space Marines and Chaos Warriors has been there since Rogue Trader, particularly in their design aesthetics. In particular, the large shoulder pieces on their armor are based off of Chaos Warrior armor.

 

Got some work in last night on my cold ones, primarily doing base coating on the rest of the bits. I also started work on a banner for an astrolith bearer conversion. My only struggle now is getting the banner to attach properly to the left hand. I may have to pin it rather than use plastic glue.

 

So let me get this straight. Your argument is that because Space Marines drew some inspiration from old school Chaos Warriors from 2-3 decades ago and SCE are direct ripoffs from Space Marines, that means that SCE are lawful good Chaos Warriors?

Couple of problems:

• the link between Space Marines and SCE is far greater than the link between Chaos Warriors and SCE
• the original inspiration for Space Marines came from Chaos Warriors from 2-3 decades ago
• the original link between Space Marines and old school Chaos Warriors was pretty much exclusively aesthetic (and loosely at that)
• the aesthetic link between the current day Space Marines and Warriors of Chaos is extremely weak (for instance Chaos Warriors rarely [admittedly some of the newer AoS stuff does] sport the insanely oversized shoulder pads that exemplify both Space Marines and SCE)

As I said before, that is a pretty wide net you are casting. The link between the two is extremely weak.

 

Building some Mausoleums today, got a lot to work on for AoP so need to get to work

 

Between yesterday and the day before, I finished swapping out clubs for spears on my saurus warriors and built a starpriest. Today, I got started on a sslyth.

 

Ordered some Crypt Flayers, Varghulf and two Carnifexs last night. Forgot to add on the Wight King with Black Axe for my AoP, oh well.
Forgot how I was going to run my Tyranid list against the Imperial Guard, I remember I was going to anti-tank. Depends if he decides to run a full melee next time. But those tanks. My Carni went to flip tank but the crew jumped out and smothered him in attacks...
Should be carrying on today with scenery building, hopefully a bit of spraying.

 

Maybe. But they also are both superhuman warriors who live only for war and empowered by their gods to be greater than what they once were. They are truly mirrors of each other.

 

Probably working on a couple projects I brought with me on a trip to work on. No Seraphon, but I brought some Freeguild militia that will double for a Frostgrave warband, as well as some Stormcast and Chaos. (One of the little starter boxes.)

 

Take out the word human, and that describes most of the races in AoS and 40K

That describes just about every race in AoS and 40K

Once again, hardly specific to these two factions.

Not really, for the reasons I stated in my post above:
