Made me smile to see Lucidique making (another) unexpected appearance as a KoS. No, you're not the only one! The fellow I'm thinking of went in the other direction. You customized the figure to fit your army. He built his first Slaanesh army around around a Hellraiser-ish color scheme that matched the Tortured Souls leather costumes and skin tones. Like you, he was imaginative enough to think of something beyond purple in all its variations. <br /><br />Not surprisingly, Lucidique and the other figures from that line fit in perfectly and tower over the battle field as "greater daemons". Sounds like you encountered the same brand of sour-puss "veterans" that give hobby a bad name. <br /><br />Next time any of 'em give you static, pull rank. :D Remind those "veterans" they've forgotten how the early edition rule books and low number White Dwarfs specifically recommended this kind of improvisation as a way to make do and, most importantly, have fun! This was back when GW was still marketing the game to impoverished English teenagers and not to smug, wealthy, middle-aged men like themselves. Nobody should laugh at your army. It's imaginative and you've clearly put some serious thought into it both visually and conceptually.

The money saving angle is a very valid one with the prices of similar size kits going into the hundreds .. hats off to you and your army. the basing really helps tie it all together.Neil101https://www.blogger.com/profile/01755198543735153564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-871571524985562947.post-17205779860292829692012-12-13T17:00:01.026+00:002012-12-13T17:00:01.026+00:00Hey,

They're on large bases because they represent the Exalted Greater Daemons from Storm of Magic (and spacial characters). <br /><br />I'm glad someone is reading my backstory. I often wonder if it interests anyone other than me but I do love writing it. <br /><br />I've found that writing a backstory and weaving it into established Warhammer history really helps to bring a campaign alive. The good news is that after I've finished doing it this time every race will be covered - making the ongoing stories a lotjuicier and better motivated.

Not the worst thing to have, but was curious :) <br /><br />Can't wait to see how they do in the tale!MrLeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11564055436566237661noreply@blogger.com
