Fantastic work!

Well done Todd I can really see your learning curve on this one! Dare I guess another SS coming up?

 

[Dragon Forge Design]

I think its funny, all three pieces from the challenge are capable of winning yet another sword..if these three keep it up they will have their own private little club.

Nice job everyone.

 

[Necroghast]

yeah they all look really great. oh and despite what you say, i really like the mace on festus.

 

[evil tendencies]

Man, nice job...I can\'t believe that all three figures started with the same sprue.

It\'s to bad Doug Jones dropped out. I think it would have been great if all the powers were represented in the SSC. Here is his writeup. It might be cool for someone to do.

Tanoroc, The Sanguine Cleaver
The followers of the Blood God are reputable for being a lot of crazed madmen, yet few have the insatiable thirst for slaughter that the Khornate Lord, Tanoroc possesses. Unsafe to keep near his own due to his uncontrollable rage in combat, Tanoroc is oft-times teleported alone behind enemy lines, where his twin lightning claws, Ragefeeder and Hatebred, can satiate their demonic thirst without fear of inflicting friendly casualties. A Chaos Lord of the Knights of Blood, Tanoroc\'s armor bears the distinctive Red and Black pattern of the Chapter, with bloody runes daubed in gore across its surface.

 

[Necroghast]

yeah that sounds cool! maybe ill try that... i want another chaos lord to go with \"necroghast the putrid\"

 

[Gilvan Blight]

Cool stuff, as noted it\'s amazing they all started as the same mini, the only thing that really gives it away is the head position.

I\'ve cast my vote.

Would love to see a Khorne one done as well just for the sense of completeness, I guess that wouldn\'t be very chaos like though.

I think there is only a week or so left for people to vote. Here are some progess pics of Festus. The base was scatch built and the Nurgling was my first full sculpt.

[Necroghast]
