Sometimes, the deranged thought-processes in my head lead to insights undreamed of:
Let me tell you the tale of the Khornate Warrior:
Once upon a time I sat there, thinking how to convert/sculpt my next Chaos Knight,
(it was one of those phases, where the chaos moon drove me strongest, I think)
and as I wanted to incorporate those coooool swords the plastic GW bloodletters have,
it was Khorne´s turn to gain a new follower.
As there were no legs I wanted to use out-of-the-box I set about sculpting some and thought about a naked breast (for the mini, of course!) when it hit me:
Damn, he looks like a spartan warrior! Which in turn made me think:
What exactly made those 300 Spartans (in the movie) tick? Wasn´t it Bloodshed, Honourable Death and so on? What did they build: a wall of the dead??
Which colours were quite traditionally khornate: Brass and red???!!!
So….
Having identified Leonidas and his merry men as a Khornate Chaos Army the whole look of my mini was more or less defined: a crest on the helmet and a red cloak? Yessir.
I refrained from a big shield, however…
The mini is more or less a jumple of magic sculpted parts (legs, cloak etc.) and GW-plastics and some added accessoires (strands of plastic hairs, rings etc).
As always, comments are highly welcome!
Thank you for taking your time!
Happy painting!
