As I will attend another Bloodstorm.nl tournament in November, this time 2999 points I like to come with a very fluffy army scoring comp 5. Therefore I came up with this list

Fleetmaster
Master - Manticore
Master - Manticore
Master - BSB, full armour
LVL 2 - Shadow
LVL 2 - Shadow
Assassin
Assassin
Assassin
40 Dreadspears
25 Darkshards
10 Cold One Knights
10 Sisters of Slaughter
1 Kharibdyss

One big block of spearman as centerpiece of the army makes it interesting, as than means one big phalanx of Spartan/Druchii hoplites! I am currently looking for 30 more Sparta heads to make this possible. I also want to use the useless Fleetmaster as my general so bought the model. Here are some WIP pictures of the new project.

Most important aspect of the phalanx is ofcourse the modelling of spears part as I want to be to deploy them as Horde + Bus and in any case the spears must be pointed in such a way that nobody wants to charge them after having watched the movie 300 ;)

I do not like the opportunistic fluff of the Corsairs so my fleets will be protected by the Druchii Marines. What do you think?

While the discussion wages on in the provocative topic, here are some other creative results. I especially looked into my old models and assembled them with some conversions.

Dark Riders
Image

Image

Image

Some Gladiators, more to come
Image

Image

Pavise Crossbowmen
Image

Image

Image

Shades
Image

Hydra's + Kharibdyss
Image

Look closely :D
Image

Image

Image

No Idea what to do with these guys corncerning conversions / weapons
Image

Knights!
Image

Maybe I even prefer them above the new ones
Image

Executioner Nobles
Image

i just dropped him on the floor so banner broke off :( But, the BSB

With the new painting challenge I decided to try something new: NMM. I also painted in a different manner than I normally do with monsters which is drybrushing. I have to say I'm really glad how the general and Lord Drakon himself is turning out :D

I also made one of my coolest conversions so far. I never had harpies as I did not like the original Dark Elf models. So I finally bought the standard deamonettes and gargoyles box to make the much better looking conversions. But when I was surfing the internet I realized that all other Dark Elf players already have them, and I also want to create something unique/different. As I have been assembling the assassin creed dark riders and shades, the idea came up with the head. Some more surfing and my inspiration came from the Angels of Death. I hope you like them, I surely do!

NMM looking good. Be nice to have some closer views on the rider himself when you have time.

This is a really awesome army (even if they do worship that Khaine guy). I do, however, have one eternally pressing question...

What model is that naked girl in the cauldron, and where can I get one?

Thank you! The model is a pole dancing girl from the hasslefree miniatures.

Hi thank you for looking through the plog, this needs some activity!
The gorgon head itself is just the Medusa head from our kit :D
