I will not invest in another wargame. I will not invest in another wargame. I will not invest in another wargame. And that’s going to be a struggle, because as nice as Warhammer 40K’s models are, Age of Sigmar has some absolutely gorgeous models in its lineup. I picked up a box of the Daughter of Khaine spells for a project I’m planning that I needed some snake-y bits for, but that left me with two whole models that I didn’t really have any plans for. Since Psychic spells are my bread and butter playing Eldar, I decided I could turn these into some neat markers that I could use for Doom, Conceal, or other abilities.

These were kind of an experiment in their own right, because XenonMage also got me a new blood-effect paint from Army Painter that I wanted to test out over some Vallejo red colors to see how the final result would look. Unfortunately I feel like they all blended together a little too well, and the blood didn’t quite get the definition that I was hoping for, but I’m still overall pretty happy with these since they’re just meant to be spell tokens.

The only other thing that I don’t think I did great on these models is that I only did a light coat of gloss. And my reasoning for that is pretty spartan: these are just spell markers, they’re relatively big, and Hardcoat doesn’t grow on trees! But I still might go back in the future and revisit these with gloss again just for the sake of giving them a nicer shine. I’m also looking forward to working with the larger Bloodwrack Viper model, but there’s more on that to come down the road.
