So today I have had the chance to get these painted during this evening’s Harry Potterthon (tonight was Deathly Hallows part 1).
Now to be honest I haven’t got a clue about Chaos Forces in 40k. These Pox walkers came in my Son’s Christmas Present.
We made a start on the Space Marines using the colours he chose…
This set has six marines, six pox walkers and three Nurgle marines.
Regarding the painted troops, I am really pleased with how they turned out. I have never painted anything like these before. I reckon my rusty metal needs a bit more work but apart from that they weren’t too bad to paint. I suppose the trickiest one was the one with the elephant trunk and axe as he has straps going across his chest and shoulders as well as his waist.
Tomorrow I will help him carry on with the marines. Funnily enough, I have all of these miniatures from when they did the Conquest magazine. In fact I have two or three lots of Death Guard and two or three of the Primaris marines.
Well, you may not have a clue Chaos-wise, but those are some nice-looking poxwalkers indeed.

Cheers mate, as for painting time, they were undercoated Boxing Day but painted during Harry Potter and a bit beyond – let’s say three hours. Pretty much all done with Contrast paint.

That’s quick work by my speed standards and they look great.

To be honest, the Contrast speeds up the process. Faster than my normal would be.

Very nice Steve and I like that you can engage with your kids in this fine hobby of ours. Sadly mine remain fixed in the taking the p**s stage with little chance of ever moving from it!
