WHF Chaos Lord

"When you stand at the gate of Hel,
and when you have to tear free,
I will follow you,
past the gates of Gjöll with my song."

WHF Chaos Lord
Games Workshop, 28 mm

This miniature stands close to Gjöll, eh? 
Well, I really had my fun with this one as I always wanted to paint up this Games Workshop model, but always avoided it because of its price. Lately I choose to paint him up as a future gift to a nice person and I enjoyed the figure a lot. I did a small conversion to the head as in my oppinion a warrior of chaos should wear a bad ass helmet.  I nailed a Mantic Games Zombie hand to his shoulder armour and while painting I gave the new Scale75 metallics a try. I recently bought myself the gold and the silver metall set and let them slowly come inside my painting. They are really good, that is my first impression.

Hoping that you might like this warrior of Chaos as I really enjoyed painting him. I can already tell you that Massive Voodoo's year of the painter has a whole step by step prepared for this one too. Let's see what the next tutorial voting might bring to you to decide for.

Keep on happy painting and don't bath in Gjöll!

  3. the overall look is great and very fitting for a chaos warrior.
    but i miss some more defined areas, so its very hard to get all the details.

  4. Normally I almost always feel like all these litte details on the typical chaos-armor hides the basic structur under a massive amount of different shapes and details (I dont like it). Here I feel like everything is hidden under dirty, rusty, scrap metal. It looks all the same. :D
    Though I like the cloak!

  5. An amazing model and I share the opinion. I always wanted to paint this model because it looks bad ass, I think it is too expensive and I'm not blown away by the standard head. What head did you use? You did one hell of a job on him! I love the huge amount of scratches and patches of rust which give the model an incredible worn and realistic look. If there is a step-by-step to be released about this model it has my vote no matter what! A tutorial on how to paint the black would also be amazing! Thank you for sharing your work!

  9. I really disliked this model because of its very "high fantasy wow style" of armour and the paint job of the gw team. You really managed to change my opinion of this miniature and now i probably have to get it myself!
