Malchy's WIP thread : Kohuru head hunter squad (up 12/10)

[hushrong]

He looks great and that spectrum of colors you've used is fantastic. And despite all those colors used you definitely get a grim dark vibe from him.

Hi everybody !

Thanks for the replies :)

 

@Bjorn : Glade you like Souleyba man :) in fact the Warband I made represente Souleyba and his delegation during a ritual trial that took time every years on Cayor. During this ritual Souleyba is wearing his ceremonial wargear. The shield and spear. When he enter battle in the Obsidian Fury he no longer need those ^^.

 

@bluntblade : Haha ! Thanks, the rise gad already begun brother. You could found their story in several post along with the pictures :)

 

@Hushrong : Cheers dude ! Really happy to read that ! The Grim dark aspect is something I really care about and I'm glade if I manage to keep it :)

 

Here is a little update on the Cayorian Ogryn :

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Still a lot to do but I'm having a lot of fun painting him :)

Love how the House Joolan models are coming out.

 

Also, is it weird that as I look at them, I shudder slightly because I'm getting CivV flashbacks while looking at them :lol: Because their design, while very African inspired, also has a similar colour-scheme to the Aztecs in Civ V. In short, you have Aztec-coloured Zulus, which is a terrifying concept :lol:

[hushrong]

Holy :cuss! I’m crying! This is off to a fantastic start! He is looking awesome and hot damn do I love the leopard! Ever since those Escher gangers came out I’ve been loving painted fur!

[sockwithaticket]

The pelt and turquoise are outstanding. Going to look so dope when finished. I'm impressed as heck with this whole little project, perhaps oddly the woodgrain on the shields has drawn my attention the most, it's really good.

[Pearson73]

Those glowing eyes are most intimidating.

[Kelborn]

Duuude that Ogryn!

Still loving your household.

 

Ever thought about integrating them in a wider setting like our BotL? They'd fit very well. Maybe not alongside my Preds (too much African awesomeness ;) ) but I can see them along a different legion or as a standalone. :)

[DaBoiKyknos]

@Kyknos : Hey budy ! Thanks a lot : ) Yeah I know i'm looking for a new name for my thread haha if you have a suggestion I'm all hears. As for the Cayorian Ogryn I liked the idea of a kind of Ogryn that evolve to better fit their environement but I understand that it's a personal touch not everybody will like.

 

 

"Evolution isn´t that fast! "... But it doesn´t turn people into dwarfs in a few thousand years because of strong gravity, so yeah, well... 

Hmm, well the white faces- thing were quite a brand... hmm... 

[malcharion]

Hi everybody !!

 

I just came back from a long trip to Zanzibar far from the Hobby community but here I am ! :D

 

Thanks a lot for the comments ;)

 

@Gederas : Haha Yeah an original concept indeed ! Thanks !

 

@Hushrong : Thanks man ! I really enjoyed painting this pelt and glade I'm glade you like it !

 

@sockwiththaticket : Cheers dude ! :)

 

@Pearson73 : Thanks ! and perfect because it was the point ^^

 

@Kelborn : Thanks Kelborn ! Yeah I have think of integrating the Joolan in the BoTLS background one day but surely in order to explorate what could have become of them in the traitors side ;) (PS : there is never too mutch african awesomeness brother :p )

 

@Kyknos : Yeah I know but as always ... "Rule of cool ...". For the name I don't know if it was quite a brand yet ^^ but I don't know as my work diversify with the time I thought that another name for the thread was a good idea. Also I hope that people come in here because they enjoy my work more than the title of the thread ^^.

 

So it was time that I finished the Cayoran Ogryn, and in fact I've finished all the warband and I'm taking pictures of it for another post comming really soon. For now here is the finished Cayoran Ogryn :

"Bend over, enemies of House Joolan. It's time for your spanking."

[hushrong]

They look fantastic! I have to applaud the theme, the colors, and how you have them mesh so perfectly well in the grimdark universe.

[Mechanist]

I really love the high contrast work on these guys. They are some stellar conversions finished of with a glorious paint scheme it's been great seeing  the warband grow.

[Karl_von_Krieg]

I will always follow you! 

Lurking and trying to backstab you, sure, but is this little motivation that bad? 

 

Just a question, may I call your knight the "Nigga Knight"? :D

[Pearson73]

Ace work on the warband, they look great together. The weathering on the Ogryn's metals is spot on.

[KrautScientist]

The warband is looking fabulous, Malchy! The paintjobs really do a marvelous jobs of pulling all of those different elements together! Lovely stuff! :)

[Krakendoomcool]

These look amazing all together Malchy and so different.

 

I’m looking forward to whatever you decide to tackle next!

[Pandoras Bitz Box]

Whaaaaaaaa?! How come no one mentioned this thread to me earlier, these things are amazeballs! I love this warband, it looks immense. I really liking the kitbash of the beefy guy, fun to see the use of parts and how well you have put it all together, very inspiring. I have a spare Rat Ogre ebayed from the old starter set, I should think of something cool to do with that.  I love seeing peoples work that just makes me want to try and make something awesome for myself.  This is another name I'll be keeping an eye on, awesome effort Malcharion. I love they aesthetic on these guys, and the paint work is really nice. I feel like I wont be able to go to sleep now when I go to bed because I feel to excited!

[steamius]

Even more crazy, amazing stuff!
