Doles Out Fashion Advice To An Apocalyptic Sorcerer
I did want
to get the actually Tzeentchian sorcerer model but he's out of
production! Presumably temporarily pending a repackaging for the
Disciples Of Tzeentch release but, still, for the moment the generic
plastic Chaos Sorcerer will have to do...

So, how to
paint this fine and handsome fellow. Now, the GW example above is
absolutely rocking that Archaon's Horde bare metal and black cloth
look. Now, that's very Chaos Undivided and I'm going for a Tzeentch
theme but I am feeling the bare metal. Maybe I could try a blue ink
or glaze to make it look a bit more magicky? I did something similar
on the gromril plate of my Dwarf Ironbreakers and its a good effect.
Part of me wants to go for a lacquered armour effect but none of the
obviously Tzeentchian options really grab me as a colour I'd want on
every bit of plate armour in my horde. Definitely keeping the gold
trim, though.
As for the
cloth? A medium blue, I think. Maybe the new Thousand Sons Blue or
the Lizardmen skin palette.
Actually,
talking of skin, how to do that head bothers me. I'm not sure about
the stark white used here but I absolutely don't want to go with the
vibrant blue skintones 'Eavy Metal have been using on the new
Tzaangors. Certainly not in ordinary skin tones, it wouldn't suit the
look of someone so mutated. Something to think on, certainly.
