Slaaneshi Daemon Prince converted for a friend:

That's a fascinating take on the Slaneeshi. It's a pleasant change from the usual over-sexualized custom jobs we see.

Very nice in deed!

Nice to see some work progressing on P&M it's pretty dull here these days.

I'm working on a Slaanesh army myself at the moment (haven't painted anything for a few months)

Looking good so far. I think it could do with some more work on the hooves, though - they're too smooth and 'unfinished' looking. And I'd definitely get rid of the bum-boobs.

Wait, what?

(frantically goes back for a closer look)

Aw, man, you're right. Those look.... just terrible. Totally ruins the line of movement through the legs, back, and tail.

but they are boobs - would not be a slaanesh model without boobs

Slaneeshi Chaos Warriors and Marauders manage just fine...

Seriously. Aside from the butt-boobs, the whole figure has a sense of sensuality in it's movement. Remember, Slannesh is the chaos god of sensation, not sex. There is pleasure to be found in just moving, dancing... and fighting.

People get too caught up in the sexual aspects of Slaneesh, I think... including GW. Daemonettes with their boobs hanging out was somewhat understandable as a rather unique derivative of the succubi, but boobs on the steeds of slaneesh, the boobsnake, and the greater demons? Why? There are other sensations for Slaneeshi to explore beyond sex, killing, and dying.

Cheers! Yes, the hooves are way too smooth, but it was done with transition freehand painting in mind. They may yet end up with some details before paint comes on.

As to the posterior, enemies of the extremely mammalian behind will be pleased to hear that my friend told me to axe the @$$ and instead go for a lean Daemon Prince of Arrogance look, not Lust. As per his instructions, there is now also shin armour plates with images of Elf torture: What else? I also added two lone flowing pteruges dangling from its belt. I'll show you the painted end result whenever he finish this creation:





Bonus Daemon Prince:

Very nice, very nice indeed.
