The Space Crusaders: A 40k Khorne Renegade Warband

On board their ancient Space Hulk ready for deployment on a rural planet with one and only one objective: Kill them all - blood for the blood god, skulls for the skull throne - Kill them all!

The warband: One champion and four renegades (so far)

The Renegades: Four classic renegades from the late 80s. I painted these in a quite different style. Objective was an ancient, battle scarred and evil looking appearance. (Updated pics of these)

Nurgle Warband Update - What's Cookin' Don?

Have done some thinking about where to take my Nurgle warband and what to add.

Let's start with what I got:

Nurgle Warband so far

  • 1 Zebrotaur
  • 1 Ogre
  • 1 Troll
  • 1 Beastman
  • 2 Warriors
  • 5 Dwarfs
  • 1 Sorcerer

Don, what's cokin' then?

These are currently being brewed : 2 Thugs, 1 Dwarf and 1 Dwarf standard bearer.

Nurgle Warband coming next

What to add?

I definitely need some pestigors (a nurgle warband without a few beastmen is like building LEGO with glue - really bad idea IMO). 

I also would like some additional less powerful creatures - so will probably add some Marauders (or Thugs) and some additional dwarfs. I'll add the two warriors as well in the pic below - mostly because I love those minis. The samurai inspired warrior is a favorite. 

Really like currently to paint larger metal men with a lot of skin so I'll most likely add one or a few minotaurs / trolls / demons / monsters.

Most likely this plan will not be followed as I'm quit impulsive when it comes to painting. 

We'll see...


Another open question is what to use for champion. Just realized I could use the sorcerer as champion. Other ideas are the Nurgle Palaquin, Builing a champion from the Beast of Nurgle and using the Cross breed attribute (with giant snail) or building a mounted champion. Haven't decided what to do...

Nurgle Warband Update: More Chaos Dwarfs

Two additional evil stunties to my Nurgle warband...I'll probably do a few more :)

Nurgle Warband: Chaos Dwarfs

One thing I made different with these compared to the other warband members was the shields. I wanted something to stand out a bit and also add a bit of personal touch to the paint job. So I decided to paint the shield without shadings or highlight. For Belekhost Deathbringer below I also painted the back of the shield but added a bit of color.

Would love to here your comments on this approch! (thanks)

Ori Pointed-Beard below was another old mini that had been mutilated by the need to bits. His right arm was missing as well as the handle for his club. A bit of green stuff and a tentacle solved this.

The Nurgle Warband is coming together quit nicely now - I'll probably do a post soon with my plans for the warband and maybe some of the chaos attributes, stats etc. I plan to use.

Nurgle Warband Update: Chaos Dwarfs

A new update to my Nurgle Warband - a few chaos dwarf. Really enjoyed painting these.

Nurgle Warband: Chaos Dwarfs

The one below (Spikes Harveywotan) was in a general very bad shape and was missing his sword so he needed a bit of TLC and green stuff to be good to go. He also ended up with a tentacle tail.

Chaos Dwarf: Ulfo Bloodmask
Chaos Dwarf: Lufin Bristlebeard

A few more chaos dwarf are coming up so I thought I'd share a WIP photo of these: From left to right - Azakil Bonecruncher, Ekalim The Mad and Belekhost Deathbringer. Ekalim will be the standard bearer of the warband. The pole is finished but not sure yet if I am going to keep the three shields or use banners or maybe both.

That's all for now. Thx!
