My Marauders are finished.

After almost two months I finally have another unit for my Warriors of Chaos army finished. I introduce my unit of 20 Marauders with full command. My goal is to have the whole army finished by October so my painting style for this army is a "quick and dirty" style, but I still think it looks pretty good.

They are mostly all box stock with the exception a few small weapon conversions and head swaps. The sprues came with too many helmeted heads for my tastes so I used some empire knight heads I had laying around. For my fluff the warriors of my tribe are marked by the gods from birth with fiery orange/red hair so all hair and beards in the army is painted as such. (and no I do not have red/orange hair myself ;) ). Also I posed the models on the sides of the unit so they look like they are watching the flanks, even though it means nothing in game terms I like the look it gives the unit.

Now on to some pictures (click on a pic for a bigger view). First up is some whole unit shots.
(please ignore the banner pole, it has since been fixed. I tried to make it look old but it turned out weird and I forgot to fix it before taking the pictures.)

And here is the start of the next unit, 5 Chaos Knights.

Hopefully this will not take as long to get finished. Please stay tuned for updates and all feedback is appreciated. Thank you for looking,
Manny
