Hmmm
After looking through this site and all over the web I have come to the conclusion that there is very very little in \"fluff\" painted WE/Berzerkers.
I have an all World Eaters army I am working on myself, and although the above photo is a great work of art, its not very \"official\" berkzer in looks. What I mean is, from all the great painted Khorne space marines out there ( including eavy metal ones ), nobody seems to be able to capture the real fluffy look of them.
World Eaters or Berzerks officaly are in a blood/crimson red basic color scheme with tons of brass, metal decorations and alot of skulls. Im working on trying to come up with a painting method myself to get them to look right, but having a few problems figuring this out.
Im debating about undercoating them in black, then building up from scab reds to a medium red on highlights, basicly Im trying to find a way to have the shadow areas an almost black color and mid areas a crimson then extreme highlights a fire engine red color almost, then maybe a few deep or medium red glazes, this is all easier said then done tho, as I experiemented on a few old metal chaos terminators and it turned out far too redish orange even with inks like magenta, so yea its a bit of a stumbling block for me.
Im going to say that Tammy Hayes World Eater on Juggernaught ( the one with the tiny faces etchings ) is probably one of the only \"true to khorne\" painted world eaters I have seen, right down to the brass metal.

I actually know very little about WH/40k myself, so I have no idea how well that guy fits in with the fluff; I just know that Hudon\'s work is the first thing I think of now when someone mentions Khorne.
(Rhetorical question: I know exactly what GraveRobber means when he says this, but still... doesn\'t it sound a little strange to think of a Khorne berzerker as \"fluffy\"?
)

lol Yeah, I reacted that way myself when I read it. I too understand the meaning of it, though...
On topic, though, I can\'t be of much help since I never bother about fluff. I like to chose my own colour schemes (even though I sometimes \"borrow\" from the offical versions), rather than follow what someone else have decided.

Bloody \'fluff\'. Stupid expression. As for \'official\' paint schemes.... WHY??!!!!
This is my favourite Khorne anything....
Now THAT is the bollocks. Don\'t reckon you\'ll get more Khorne than that!
