The rider and horse are complete standard with the exception of the Rider's claw. The positioning of this hands made it impossible to add a weapon and I didn't wan't do afflict any damage on the mini as I really like it. So I just added a claw. Not the best conversion ever but I think it did the job.
Really happy with the look on this one and it's one of my favorites in the warband/army so far. Hope you like it too.
Thanks for stopping by and let me know what you think.

Oops - just realized I forgot to complete the band on the hat. Will do that know :)
Not sure about the Nurgle affiliation, but still a nice unit!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jaeckel!
DeleteWell, I guess you are right about that they don't look very typically Nurgle. I don't mind that at all though as I base this warband/army on my own view how a Nurgle/Chaos army can look like.

Another fine and suitably freaky addition to what is surely the coolest Chaos warband of all time. Looks like a Satanic Puritan!
ReplyDelete"...coolest Chaos warband of all time". That is very very nice of you to say. Thank you sooo much! /Hans
DeleteWell, it's true the unit doesn't scream nurgle to me neither but I really appreciate the fact that for once, the knights are not heavily clad horsemen (though I love that too) but more "noble" fighters wo have depraved. This emphasises the "corrupted" aspect in these characters.
ReplyDeleteIf the cloak had been different, I think the claw could have looked a little bit more threatening being a little more raised, but since You didn't want to alter the model (which I totally understand), this was a good choice imho.
And that is exactly what I'm going for. This unit represent what is chaos for me. A loosely coupled band of desperadoes/depraved lured to chaos in hope of power or e.g due to little choice due to mutations and when they join the army/warband they keep their armour & other gear unless they have been received an gift such as chaos weapon.
DeleteThe claw is very much a compromise but it's good enough I think
Currently spending my time at the Riviera of your great country :)
Thanks!/Hans
Amazing again... Your style is unique and very good looking. I think your vision of Nurgle and Chaos is something to be proud of! I love it...
