Never seen you looking so lovely as you did that night, stabbing me in the back in sheer delight ...

Buying miniatures is always a fun hobby, but buying miniatures and forgetting you bought them only to discover them later only leaves the question, why?

Out for a walk.


Why did I purchase Inge: Human Sorceress from Heresy Miniatures. I know she arrived alongside some of the heresy Delaque inspired gangers but I can't remember what use I had for her? It's possible I was going to add her as an alternative mage for Warhammer Quest or more likely she rounded up the price of shipping 😄

Oh no a chugger!


In any case I felt it was time to get her painted up. I went for a blue dress with a combination of tallern flesh and elven flesh for the skin. The dagger is a simple metal and wash while the handle is red mixed with a light brown. The eyes were the hardest think I redid them three times as her face is so small.

"Hi, How are you today, could I interest you in making a small donation to the Slaanesh ..." 
"(sigh)"


Overall she was fun to paint and might even have a role to play in my Slaanesh war party or be used as a civilian. A nice change of pace from the Waaagh and chaotic things I usually paint here.


Until Next Time :)

The Genetic Freak of the Chaos Week! - Slaanesh: Keeper of Secrets

The warp has been fluctating really badly in recent days, not sure if it is the heat, the smell of burning meat or the flow of alcohol on these hot summer nights.

"Mortal you are unworthy to be in the present of greatness!"

Or it could be because I summoned a Greater Daemon of Slaanesh to the paint table. This is a really great model and I have owned it for a long time which is why it might not match up with what you may find in the citadel catalogues of times past.


My first knowledge of Greater Daemons began in the Codex Imperialis: Chaos Section. This image next to the Keeper of Secrets entry really grabbed my attention. What a monster and he is fighting a Grey Knight! Those guys are tough, I need to know more. The thing is I never collected a Slaanesh army of any kind back then, but somehow I ended up buying the Greater Daemon early on.

Follow on for more glorious Slaanesh details ...

Movie Review - Deep Rising (1998)

Ah a movie review, these are always fun:


Deep Rising (1998) is a film that has a multitude of ideas to begin with and then turns into a standard creature feature on a ship. The basic plot is a big ferry is sabotaged by mercenaries, yet something else beats them to the money/passengers ... ominous!
