looking very nice and yeah i think you should have different types of snakes and for the muzzle its usually darker than the main colour on the chin and fades back and they usually have black outlined mouths but i dnt know if it would do anything for the model tbh but all in all looks cool especially squig herd

th chaos units look like they are gonna be just as good as your gobbo's, it was a plesure watching the army evolve, great job, would it be too much to ask for a quick tutorial on how you made those tree's on the squig herd base please?

Ok, feels like it has been forever since I have been able to get anything done. Work...work...work... ah well. I updated the top of the thread with the new list, and also a list of what I used for the bases and for the different colors. Anyway, a little done here and there, so let me know what you guys think. Overall, I think I am going to go with the coral snake theme for the army, I think that and the three headed dog will give plenty of idol worship for this undivided army. That being said, here is the current status of the Cerberus model. I decided to continue the stripes up his back, but I think in doing this I may need to add some color to his muzzle as well. He is still very WIP, so let me know what you guys think. For the maruaders, these guys are just about done. A few nitpick things (highlights on the drum and some other small things). And finally, I got rid of the GW chaos ogre in lieu of a model from Rackham, simply because I think it fits better with my maruader theme.

The hound is looking great! The only thing I notice is that the stripes on his back look a bit odd in the second picture, but its probably just the photo.

exellent painting on all of these!
Though I have a small nick pick. the bases look a bit odd, snow does not really (atleast not here in Sweden) gather in patches like that. but other than this I think it all looks great, I ezpecially like the marauders ;D

RT: No worries mate, once I am done with the Chaos army I will put another vote up. Tim C: Not sure if you call this quickly, not a single miniature done in the last month... mminiatures: Still not entirely convinced on the stripes, I am think of going back and getting rid of them. Andre: I think you are right, a bit more snow is required. My only concern was I did not want to overpower the base with snow.

Well, got a little bit done since last week. Actually had today off, after 10 weeks, a real day off. Ahhhh, back to work tomorrow... The aspiring champion got some attention. Not sure what to do with his cloak, any suggestions? The Ogre is about done, just a few little tidbits to go. Any last minute advice? Did some work on the Marauder Champion. For the model, I bent his leg to make it look like he is stepping up on the rocks. He is also almost done, any last minute tips for him? And Cerberus, what should be the centerpiece of the army. Got rid of the stripes, just didn't seem to be working. Still thinking about the snakes...

The aspiring champs paint job is nice, I guess the mini just isn't my taste. The ogre and marauder look great and the Cerberus is just awesome! I prefer it without the stripes

Ok, almost another two weeks has gone by... and not much to show for it. Though I am now calling the Chaos Ogre done... Went with a subdued blue for the loin cloth (also on the marauders)... Anyone have any idea who sculpted this guy? Better yet, where I can find out who sculpted any Rakham models? And at CMON: Chaos Ogremminiatures: Thanks mate... not sure if I am liking the aspiring champ either...

Alright, glad to say that I have finished the unit of marauders... hope you all like them. At CMON: Marauder RegimentAnd I am also calling the Cerberus (spawn) model done. Let me know what you all think of the end result. At CMON: Chaos Spawn (Cerberus)Thanks for the comments guys... wish I had more time to surf the forums... you guys have some really great projects going on. Tim, thanks for noticing the sword, I didn't even see it until you said something.

Well, 20 days since my last update, and really not a whole lot to show for it. I think I have the theme for both the hounds and the gagoyles down pretty good, but let me know what you all think. I think these two are pretty much done save a bit more work on the bases... Also, went with a pretty simple and basic design for the champions cloak, leaning more towards not wanting to clutter it too much... And at CMON: Aspiring Champion of ChaosStill planning to finish that marauder tutorial... just need some more time to actually put it together... darned work... Andre: In the US you can still get them from the "Classical" line as individual bits, though I think they are going to completely discontinue them sometime in November. Tim: Thanks mate. I am still not convinced on the wolf fur though, I have seen some really amazing wolf fur done and I just don't feel that I have quite found the right color combo yet...
