Nick speaking,
So building my
Noise Marines has finally started! I first decided on my base theme for the army and I have come up with what I think will be a pretty cool base. Some sort of electric blue lava with pink tentacles coming out of it, something like this crude image I did in photoshop to give me an idea of the look. The tentacles will definitely be bigger though...
With the base worked out it was time to do some building, first I got a massive bag of slate from Poundland and took a hammer to it. The slate is a great material for glueing both the plastic Chaos Space Marines and Spellcrow Resin legs to with superglue. Plus I can drill a hole into it should I need to do any pinning. From then on it was a case of gluing the legs onto the bases. I plan on building thirty six Noise Marines to give me six units of six or three units of twelve, seems about right for Slaanesh!
My original plan was to have about 25% Spellcrow bitz and the rest genuine Chaos bitz, but to be honest, the Spellcrow Pleasure Marine pieces are so good, I have decided to use a lot more of their stuff than I originally intended, and this has meant I have come to a halt until my second order from Spellcrow arrives in a few days. I would highly recommend you check out the
Spellcrow Website if you haven't done so already, they have some awesome products for sale. For now though, here are a few pictures of the progress I have made so far on the Noise Marines...
