Tried my hand at painting one of those Horrors, and am quite pleased with the end result. I wanted a nice pink, like the old ones, rather than the purpley ones I've seen about. Anyway let me know what you think: Thanks Bruenor

Looks good, I don't like these as much as the old horrors but yours is cool, I still have a few old pink horrors that i painted when I was much younger, it is quite frightening to see them now they realy are quite bad.

Yeah I know what you mean, I bought some of the blue ones, years ago, and used the arms from one for a Bloodbowl catcher, sadly before I knew how to pin, so the arms kept on falling off and painted one in the blues is was supposed to be in, rather heavily drybrushed........... Needless to say now they have both gone to the leadpile in the sky.

I like it. The skin is great. I'm not so sure about the teeth though. Did you paint the teeth with a metal colour? I like the way you painted the two mutants. I really look like the blue guy is coming out of the pink guy ;D

Nice, I like it. The color contrast is very good and cleanly painted. I remember painting my 2k demonic legion of tzeentch about 6 months ago, painting a damn lot of these. Yours look better than mine, but then you probably din't think that painting 12 horrors between 12midnite and 3:00 for a game next day would be a good idea...

Thanks,
Although it wasn't painted for a game the next day, it was painted after a 12 hour shift and very late at night, around midnight, and I was pleasantly surprised the next day when I loked at in the daylight. Not something I would recommend tho', I was bloody knackered the next day and faced another long work shift.
