I have turned out another Chaos marine unit for my Illuminati warband. I have put a great deal of effort into the bases. I think GW are wrong to stick with simple, rather bright bases. These are resin bases upgraded with slate chippings and green-stuff alien life. On the wargame table, bases are more visible than the miniatures
Chaos marines always look a bit camp to me so I go for bright colours.
Terminators have one really great ability - deepstrike. With no decent artillery, you need some way of pinning an enemy while the rest of the army minces across the table. The 2+ save helps as well :)
Excellent paintjob. I like your choice of colours and the bases look very effective.
ReplyDeleteNice minis.
ReplyDeleteAs a guard player, i always hated those. My poor russes suffered lots of hits from behind.

ReplyDeleteThanks. I think the bases took longer than the figures to make.
