Chaos Lord with Daemon Weapon Part II

Well, this was a post that was a long time in the making. I published the first images of this guy literally years ago, during my last Chaos kick. The mini was then left unfinished as I went onto other projects.

Over the weekend, I finally completed the rest of the conversion work and the greenstuff. I really love the way that the mini has come out, and I hope that when Chaos get a full codex, they'll put the rules for Daemon Weapons back in! For the moment he might have to slug things out with his chain-fist, that I had originally added just for coolness.

As far as the build is concerned, he is mostly one of the Forgeworld Word Bearers Blade Slaves. I took the base model and combined it with some parts from my bits box, as well as the Slaanesh head from a Chaos Warrior Chariot, which I purchased online. I finished him off by blending in some of the converted bits with a little greenstuff work, and I'm happy with the way his mask/helmet came out with it being pulled away from his face.

Needless to day, he is destined to join my Emperor's Children in battle, so he'll be getting the purple and gold treatment as soon as I can get a few more models finished and ready for undercoat (with all of these projects on the go, it seems wasteful to paint just one at a time, but it will take me a bit longer to get the rest of the conversions ready!)

Well, that rounds out another Week of Chaos! Check back later to see if I can get some more painting done next time!
