Cheetors Silver Tower: Tzaangor, Ogroid, 14/10/16

Another Cheetor treat of a thread 
The knight is grand, but the fish is my favourite - so far

Thanks Cheetor! That helps a lot!

I had a bit of a delay in finally generating progress on this one, but you know how it goes sometimes.

Painting the Ogroid Thaumaturge proved not to be fun at all, largely due to bad planning on my behalf and also because of stretching the job out far too long due to other commitments.  To be honest, all that I can currently see are the bits that I should have been neater with, but at least its finished and fit for purpose now, onward and upward.  

It is a fun model, full of strange menace.



There is some talk about the colour scheme and how oni-like the model is in the associated blog post.


Next is the Tzaangor from the box.  If somebody told me that a model of a magical man-goat-bird would be arguably the best miniatures in a set, then I would likely scoff.  Not this time, they are fantastic figures.



In keeping with tying as many of these models as possible to my Shonen Knives mythical Japanese force I plan to use these models as tengu in that force.  Its not a bad fit really.  The blog post about their overlap with tengu is here.

Lastly, a rather poorly composed photo of all of the horned Tzeentchians from the box.  A bit crooked, but certainly vibrant at least.



Scuttlings next, probably.  Or maybe a Hero.  I havent decided yet.

Thanks for looking!

Good stuff, love all that colour. Colourful, but still dark and menacing.

Stunning painting with some inspired and beautiful colour choices.
Top drawer, sir.

Wow! That's just amazing! Great painting and colour mate!

[Grumbledook]

Oh wow, they look amazing and the colour choice is fab!

Mine are still languishing in the box waiting for me to finally get some of my 28mm hoard painted. Your Japanese them is pretty inspirational and maybe I could muster up the will to start my pile of Rackham Goblins.

Thoroughly enjoy your in depth blog posts by the way.

Thanks for the feedback everyone.

They are very nicely designed plastics and quite pleasurable to paint for the most part.

I suspect that the nest Silver Tower job that I do will be to paint the Grot Scuttlings, but I have yet to decide.  I might paint a character or two before I get stuck into another unit.

Thanks for sharing, I do not have the box, but I am really fond of the Beastmen and Grots 

Maybe now I really need to ge them
