Blackstone Fortress: Obsidius Mallex and Bodyguard

Time for the final miniatures from Black Fortress and I've been looking forward to working on these as Black Legion are my main army in 40K.


Being the "Big Boss" for Blackstone Fortress and also doubling as a Lord for my 40k army I wanted to paint Obsidius to a good standard, spending time on layering and highlights etc.  I'm very happy with how he turned out, particularly his face where I used a thinned down purple wash rather than a standard flesh colour to give him that taint of Chaos feel.






The bodyguards were a test run for me to see how quickly I could get some standard Chaos Marines painted up as I have quite a back log in the wings, to this end they were painted to a very basic table top standard (base coats, dry brushing, washes and the odd highlight) but I think they strike a good balance of quality to speed so I'll be forging ahead with this scheme once I start on the army proper.





Next up, and already built and undercoating, is the Dreaded Ambull from the first expansion!
