Horus Ascended - Sons of Horus - Forgeworld

 


Hello everyone

As you are most likely aware, if you follow me on Instagram, I semi-recently finished painting my Horus Ascended, which was a gift from a good mate of mine. I painted this over roughly 6 months while working on other things when it started to drive me a little crazy. I'm very happy with how it turned out overall, but there are a few things that I think could have been better, but I'm simply too lazy to actually try again. 

As you might have noticed it's based on a 40mm base and the reason is simply that I highly doubt I'm ever going to actually play it as the Ascended version (which is on a 60mm base) because it would require a very big game to legally bring it in an army. So I managed to cut up his scenic base and fit it on a 40mm, then used Milliput to sculpt the rest of the base.

So yeah, super happy, but I'm never going to paint this model again that's for sure :-D

Anyway, more pictures.





Here are a few pictures with a lighter background as it makes quite a difference to how the model is perceived.



Hope you like it.

Until next time
Chris

Contemptor Dreadnought - Sons of Horus - Games Workshop


Hello everyone!

Totally forgot to post this Contemptor Dreadnought I painted up after the release of the Age of Darkness starter set. So better rectify that immediately.

Build right out of the box with a few Sons of Horus conversions added (chains and coins). Was a lovely model to paint but honestly a little shit to assemble compared to the FW resin version.

Anyway, pictures!
