Where the Horrors are now

Welcome back everyone to SB40k.  Over the last week or so I've been hard at work trying to complete the Pink Horrors I created last month.  I'm making huge strides (for me, that is) in getting the army completed as quickly as possible.



I have 40 of the Horrors displayed here, but I have a much larger number to finish.  Each of the rocks is taking a bit longer than I had anticipated, first needing to be painted with white foundation paint, bright green, and then brushed with a very dark green over it.

The plan from here on out is to add a dark grey highlight to the rocks.  After that is completed I can paint around the edges and add things like arms and heads to the space around the rocks for variety.  When all is said and done, I plan to use a 2 part clear resin and red dye to make the appearance of bloody water with body parts floating in it.  Gross?  You bet!

I hope to finish up with this portion this week, which would be a monumental feat.  Ninety Horrors is more than I'm used to working on (used to MSU in the past).  Wish me luck!

  2. I still really love that idea. How many in total will there be?

    Don't fight a CSM Zombie list! They just love "BRAAAAAINS!"

    1. Thanks! In total there should be 99 Horrors on foot, 90 regular, 6 Iridescent, and 3 Heralds. I also have one on a disc and one in a UFO to act as Fateweaver :)

      I'll be sure to stay a long way from those nasty zombies!
