Legio Throwdown: Children of Barbarus (DeathGuard40k)

I am making a subfaction of the death guard its my own warband called children of barbarus. And they will be my army for the legio throwdown. A lot of the models will be recycled from my old csm parts, and bits i have been collecting over the years. I taught this competition will be a great way to paint a full army!

For my first throwdown I am going to be painting my 13 apostles the Sorcerer that is part of that squad will be painted later.

Nice! Love how you kit bash DA, Chaos Chosen and bits from new Raptor into the mix!

yea.. lol the good thing about having a box of bits is you get to kit bash like mad lolz... Some of the heads are from the old old old csm fabius bile enhance marines too

The back pack of the three eye marine is pretty old skool too, I like it!

Yea, this squad was ment to stand out, i wanted them to not look too typical plague marine look alike, hooded and elite looking bodyguards to my sorcerer.

Rest of the army will be purely plague marines even the havoc squad will use plague marine models. Still short of 2 boxes of plague marines tho

Will be spraying my 13 apostles tomorrow. And assemble 10 plague marines.

Look forward to seeing them painted! Wish I had the resources to buy some kick ass models. Sigh...

Ive been slowly collecting bits for this army for quite a while now.

Everyone i know had / has issues collecting in this hobby, when i first started i had two squads of models and proxying like mad borrowing models to play the game i remember using a plastic toy tank as a predator for a number of games an ashtray for a drop pod, hell ive use a rhino for a raider before... if you want to play make some friends and i am sure they will help you out.

Try buying second hand items try joining the malaysian wargamers market they sell stuff all the time on fb. I got a drop pod and a razorback for 140 unassembled thats damn cheep!

Nowdays even with a job i only buy them when i freelance. So it aint like its any easier.

It only gets harder??? All that fame and fortune and it doesn't even count??? Oh, the humanity... Haha! We'll see... I wouldn't mind buying 2nd hand stuff. Could you please send me the link to this "market" on fb? Oh and i see you have a blight drone of Nurgle in your army list. *drool*

here you go bro, msia miniature pasar

Thanks man. Sent a request. Oh no!!!! Now everyone will know my true identity!!! No weird stalkers who love 40k, I hope.

When I saw this thread, I thought I could see something cool. Until I read on, I got disappointed.

why? :'(

Do I actually need to explain myself?

wait la kinda need some green stuff to put my rot and bile as well which i cant find.

Any way the deathguard has splintered to many sub factions since the horus heresy... whos to say there were no plague monks

if you taught it was going to be some warhammer 30k army then no la... not so soon

Looking at how your models all got some kinda robs. Why not just wait for the new DA codex and make a fallen list. I know you like Cypher gila-gila punya

Model manyak cantek.

Waiting to see the outcome. Peace on earth, goodwill to all.

Cantek giler bro...

anyway back to the topic ahem green stuff alvin...

AK, The robes and the model is just the start bro i need to drill some holes, and put some pus, and a few guts spilling out before they are done... Think plague monks

Anyway for the first heat It will be the normal deathguard that will be painted this guys need more work

Ok la, I think I should remove my post so your thread remains looking cool. Can't wait for you to order those Deathshroud Termies by the way. I was quite tempted too, but luckily I don't have the itch to do Death Guard.

dunno bout building a 30k army so soon that one will take some time... alvin i need ur help ordering green stuff x2 dont need typhus di going to model something else.

Cant wait to corrupt my Plague monks with pus and rot!

I've recently sold out, but re-ordered them. I think pre-heresy Death Guard shouldn't be too hard to do. But of course, you'll need an airbrush.

why airbrush ah?

Oh yes, that's another topic I'd like to bring up. What's the pros and cons of an airbrush and is it worth investing in one?

If ths is not the correct place to bring it up, I apologize and someone pls P.m. instead. Thanks. Peace out.
