It is with Tzeentch's blessings that the Kromidrakk Lodge has been slightly mutated to have gills by the Changer of Ways. The Kromidrakk Lodge has no knowledge of the true identity of The Changeling. Crestis'Chk, the Lord of Change, personally oversees this endeavor. It is he who mutates the magmadroths into Vortex Beasts. It is he who further mutates the Lodge from within. They continue to serve Tzeentch unknowingly, all the while, believing in their cause."
Tzeentch tainted Dwarves. A very unique army that is also very colorful. This was right up my alley and a lot of fun to work on. Quite a lot to dig into and flex the color theory and composition muscles, going from a broad idea for an army with very fleshed out backstory, to an overall whole bringing the two together and making something that works both as a visual whole and with the story the client had created..
For a great project with a lot of feeling behind it, well written, fleshed out and personal backstory is half of the battle. The other is the paint that tells the story visually. Combine the two and you get a very sentimental and special thing that you can point out across the table and know what went into it. I put a lot of work into my projects and what most people see at first glance is that effort, but cannot give enough credit to the clients that have worked on and thought about their personal army for years, and allow me that foundation to work on top of. Thank you very much to a certain special someone for this one! Was all my pleasure.
Next up - Perry Samurai! Somehow in all these years of painting I have never done historicals or Perry. Very much looking forward to digging in. See you then!
