Hey there fellow Inquisitors and Heretics in the making!
To expand on my Slaanesh cult beyond the Tyrus and Malicant conversion, I’ve purchased the Preacher Joseph miniature a while back and recently, some specific bits to start a conversion. I managed to get him unboxed and despite his unattractive girth, he will be quite alright as another robed figure alongside the Malicant conversion. I will definitely “shave” his head and might brand his forehead. I’ve bought, but not received yet quite a number of parts and torsos of the classic and beautiful mounted Slaanesh Chaos Lord on Daemonic steed to give all my cultists the same pendant that I fashioned from this model’s breast plate:
Also, I bought the axe off Syll'Esske: The Vengeful Allegiance, as well as his head in case it’s useful somewhere.
The final model might look something like that:
Regarding the axe, I just received it in the mail and due to the thinness of the handle, I may only use the axe head itself to replace his hammer’s head.
Besides, I’ve purchased a second Daemon Huntress model, so that I would keep one mint and one I could feel less bad about “defiling”. I’ve also purchased some specific bits for her in mind, such as the masks from the Masque of Slaanesh model:
The masks I just received are in fact very small, so I have to see whether I use them to either cover the pauldrons on the Daemon Huntress model like I initially thought or place one between the breasts to replace the inquisitorial Icon and the other in the back inside alcove. There are other alternatives, such as using them on the knee pads for instance. I’m undecided as of now. But in any case, I will remove all purity seals from the model. I don’t know if I will keep the model in the original pose or modify it to look less generic and natural. This is a very ncie example I found online of such change:
Same, I dont know if I should keep or change the deamonic head she holds for something else. If I did that, this head could be recycled and serve as a mutant head for example.
I also don’t know if I should keep the cloth, but if I do, I will probably modify the eagle wings on the skeleton icon to something more bat or dragon like. Or just have in its place the circular Slaanesh emblem from the banner of the mounted Slaanesh Chaos Lord on Daemonic steed if it fits. I will also definitely have to convert the Force Halberd to something else or modify it in a tasteful way. I would like to change the head of the model also. But it’s hard to find a suitable alternative that exists. You have any suggestions? I have to check, but I think the head of Syll'Esske might be a bit too small, even if I added green stuffed hair.
The final model might look something like that with and:
With an Andrea model's head just to see what it could look like. But she looks too "nice" and they are usually comparatively small compared to Inquisitor models.
Besides, I have also purchased a Jena Orechiel model. She could either be used as a character in an inquisitorial retinue or as a crypto Slaanesh worshipper noblewoman or something of the like after I strip the aweful paint and perhaps keep her as is.
Since my last contribution, I did purchased the six variations of the 40mm Dark Temple bases from Micro Art Studio, as well as the larger 120mm one. Although, I have not yet used them to replace the existing bases of my models.
