Pain and pleasure

The insidious forces of chaos still have me firmly in their grasp. 
I was planning to do a mhorrigoti-themed marine next but after the grittyness of Nurgle and Mhorrigot I felt the need to paint something slick. This truescale Emperors Children has been sitting half finished on my workbench for far too long so I finished the detailing and then started painting. 
Started with his head and painted that  separately - 
the body only has a chaos black spray at the moment.

  4. Glad you like him! I'm going to try to keep the blue-black batman look of the armour when I paint it - just some subtle blue tinged highlights...

  5. His face is excellent, creepy and perverse, just like anything from Slaanesh should be! I have not really seen anyone use the Sanguinary Guard bodies for Emperors Children, but think it is a fantastic idea, something I am surprised more have not thought of. Really emphasizes their narcissistic tenancies. I look forward to seeing some more pictures of him!

  6. Now that you mention it I haven't seen many sanginuary guard/slaaneshii conversions either. Strange - almost seems like a no-brainer.

    Looking at him again that swell cleft on his chin feels a tad to much. Might resculpt that...
