"Those who bear the royal name of Tzeentch."
My chaos warriors get a boost in the form of a unit of chosen and their very own sorceror. They are all metal, making it a very heavy unit, which gave me a good reason to try out some new movement trays. The new trays are made out of some plastic card and plastic strips (Evergreen 188 is the same height as a regular base). The cork just wasn't working, it was too thick, too wide, and looked bad. The cork will likely end up as rubble on some terrain somewhere.
I painted the chosen to match the chaos knights with rich blue armour, magic-y red blades and lots of gold. This creates a visual link between the two most favoured units of the bird-god.
The original standard was really short and could barley be seen when in the unit so I had to change it for a better one. The old one is destined for a hellcannon. Also, the champion's helmet was swapped for the Tzeentchy helmet from the chaos marine box so he could have a third eye.
Also, most of my units have an attached character, for the chosen I picked the Gamesday sorceror which came with the big box of goodies.
I put so freehand mathematics on his cloak, as he practices offensive numerology. The staff top was swapped out with an ushabti blade to continue the Egyptian flavour. I might be starting to run out which means I might need to pick up some of those fancy Khemri plastic kits soon!
