The Horror Of Burning Things

   One of the projects that is staying towards the top of my list for this year are my Tzeentch Daemons. As mentioned before, this wasn't really a project I meant to start, but now I have, I would like to get them to about 1250 points which is a pretty good sized game, then if the army wants to expand in the future it can.
   I need to sort my Pink Horrors out as they form the backbone of the force, but there are other units that need to get moving, one of which are the Flamers of Tzeentch. 

   As part of the gift box of daemons my brothers bought me came a box of Flamers, however, at the very least I either wanted a unit of 6 or the ability to run two minimum units, so I bulked them up with another box along with a HQ Exalted Flamer to lead them, as why not by that point. It just made sense to do this unit all in one go instead of doing bits at a time.
   This is a unit I wasn't really sure how to paint, I had half a plan of making them a mix of all 3 types of horror but in the end I went for a different blue base and then varied the tone across them with drybrushes and washes.
   Part of me wonders if I should have painted the flames as magical flames rather than just fire - ghost like green maybe? - but ultimately I used real fire colours elsewhere so I stuck with that across the army so far. Maybe if I do another unit I can vary then, but it might look even weirder by that point.




Thanks for reading
