Looming over his Bloodbound brethren,  his face locked into a permanent rictus of raging hatred,  the Slaughterpriest is literally swollen with the force of Chaos. ~ Games Workshop Come get your blood and skulls right here on The Art of Caesura! We've had a ton of Necromunda content recently on The Art of Caesura, last week we began to mix it up with something completely different.  A couple of years ago I got this model for free with White Dwarf. I actually bought two at the time and whenever I have two of a model I like to do the first one "out of the box" and then go a bit crazy with the other one. I have a (pretty common) conversion planned for my other copy of this model, but for this one, I wanted to give a standard build and paint scheme for a champion of Khorne - The Blood God.  Painting this model was an interesting journey. I actually started it months and months ago: I base-coated the skin (Bugman's Glow), then base-coated the armour pa

Swinging a spiked metal ball in devastating arcs,  dragging unfortunate foes into its path with a massive,  notched blade, this Slaughterpriest is so dedicated  to the howling devotion to the Blood God  that even his enemies begin to fall to blind, berserker rage –  that is, as long as they are not boiled alive by the heat,  rage and fury of the Slaughterpriest’s brutal attentions. ~ Games Workshop Hello people of the world and welcome to The Art of Caesura! After Necromunda galore, we're shifting back to the Mortal Realms! The last time we were in those climes, I was working on Battle for Skull Pass . We'll be returning to that soon, but first...a champion of Khorne...or the ground he's desecrating anyway.  Longtime readers will notice that the way I started this base is very similar to how I did my Kharadron bases . I started by finding some appropriate stones in the garden (actually my neighbour's garden...shhhh...), cleaning them and using a ho

Cherubael was once a Demon Prince, worshipped as a god on the  feral world of Clanar II Lexicanum Well hello there and welcome to another week of The Art of Caesura! It has been a marvelous stint of Necromunda over the past couple of months! As I've said before, this is the longest I have stuck in any one setting for quite a while. But the Mortal Realms beckon...so today we're going to go out with a bang with a Necromunda model that isn't even a Necromunda model! This miniature is called The C aptive Unleashed by Artel W. Miniatures  and it is awesome!! I have recently ordered a few miniatures from Artel W. and they all look great. If you haven't checked these guys out before, you should . Anyway, to my mind, this mini is clearly inspired by the old Cherubael model for Inquisitor (I guess it's the hovering, possessed guy wrapped in scrolls and chains-look that does it!). But if I actually played Necromunda, I would probably use him as a Rogue Psyker.

Mono's fate was changed, however, when a scavvy trader sold him a strange, one-eyed hood. It turned out to be an ancient strato-pilot helmet, and as Mono discovered, its oculus augur game him a unique view of the world, and amazing reactions as a result. ~ Forge World Welcome back Hivers to another Necromunda post on The Art of Caesura! I hope you've been enjoying our deep dive into Necromunda over the past bit. We've had The Unkindness followed by a few bounty hunters. The bounty hunters are fantastically characterful models and I've loved moving between Yar Umbra , to The Deserter and now Mad Dog Mono! Firstly, WHAT A COOL MODEL!!!! Don't you just love his pose, holding his magnum like a gangster in one hand and a massive hook-spear in the other! I love the idea that he's a gate-keeper, guarding the great Ash Gates of Port Mad Dog.  As usual, I started by blocking in the main base colours. For the yellow I mixed Yriel Yellow and
