Blue serpert tribe, Tz Chaos ogres

original thread ↗

I've assembled and undercoated  most of my army (2000pts) now and am moving on to the final stages.  So far assembled are:

*Tyrant (converted from bull)
*Fighter Butcher (converted from bull)
*caster Butcher (converted from bull)
*3 units of 3 Bulls (1 unit test painted)
*4 units of 3 Ironguts
*2 units of 2 Leadbelchers
*10 Trappers (converted Fighters)

All these are built, greenstuffed and undercoated.  To do are, a scratch built gorger (maybe 2), a scratch built maneater and a test scratch built yeti, 2 blocks of 21 heavily converted gnoblars.  Then paint the lot...  I have 1 month before a tournament so thats what i'm working towards.
I will put up the first pics this weekend and update weekly, so please feel free to comment and more importaintly hurl insults if i slack off.
I guess the main reason for the blog is so i have to get my a#se in gear.

Cheers, till this weekend.

After all, painting 100 night goblins is something you do in the morning just before you are off to work.

And I think you missed a 0 when you wrote 11 armies. The correct nr should be 110 armies I would think, based on your painting speed.

No, in all honesty if you're looking for encouragement you've come to the right place. Can't wait to see some fledgling pics!

Hey, it's about time you got this army going, I seem to remember you mentioning it last year, so if that's not slacking off I don't know what is, get going already!
(hows that for the insults? thought I'd be the first ;))

After seeing those Scratch built Mino's a while back I'm interested to see what you can do with the Ogres, needless to say I'll be watching this one.

You can't be old and wise, and have youthful memory... even if you are FF 

Achievements 39/101

Latest: 9. Sigh! - lose more than 3 ogres to any one casting of a spell that involved you taking an initiative test as part of it's resolution

Hmmm... Yeah, it's been a long time comming.
Heres the first installment: http://bsogres.blogspot.com/

Included are my tyrant and 2 butchers (all based on bulls, i will have no metal in this army).

A WIP gorger, it's about 60% finnished. 

A unit of Gnoblars, one of 2 but the photos failed of the other.  The idea is they are the baggage train of the army so carrying boxes of loot, cages of captives etc.

A WIP of a Yeti, only just started.  Not much there but it shows the pose and will make more sence as it go's along (i hope).

A epic scale Tyranid Carnifex i'm making for a friend, about 50% done.

Sounds like i'm making excuses already  but i've got a few things that will slow me down, i'm going to have to drop a couple of ogre things (Maneater and second gorger).  I have been asked to help my local GW store to put on a display of pre-heresy thousand sons at games day.  There will be a battle of prospero, sounds pretty cool.  That and a couple of epic tyranids.
Still, ogres have to be finnished in 2 months so they will be priority.

This tribe is going to be one that earns it's way slave trading to Tzeentch (so bad guys), Their dedication will be displayed in talismans and tatoos.
The Iron guts, leadbelchers and characters are of the main tribe whilst the bulls are slaves from a captured tribe.  The captives will be identified by manicles on their legs and body piercings to differentiate them from their captors.

Hope the pics work, let me know if you have any ideas or suggestions.
