Bloody Daemons....

My Fantasy project at the moment is a Daemon army. I personaly think since the release of 8th they are actualy a very well balanced army. I am also using them in my LGCs Tail of Gamers league. The idea being we all started with 500 point forces and build and paint them up over the course of time, completeing a 250pts a month quota. You gain points for winning games and meeting your painting quota.

Anyhow December is 1750... and me being me.... Ive yet to paint anything, or even settle on a theme. Couple this with the fact that Daemons are 'balanced' means Im far far down the league.

I did however settle on a list last night, and paint my a base. First the base.


Im trying to get the image that the ground is shattered and broken, and blood is oozing from the rocks. The majority of the army will be Khornate, and I also think this idea could work for tzeech and slaanesh too. Nurgle I dont plan on using, but I could always use green instead if I do. Or paint the Nurles in a more fleshy tone.
Now the flash has made that blood a bit brighter, it actualy looks more like
 

Thoughts on those? Too bright a red? Thats a 50mm base btw.

Anyhow now the list.  Im planning this for the next step of the comp, thats 2000 points.

Lords
[500]Bloodthirster - (Gen), Obsidain Armour

Hero
[240]Herald of Tzeentch - (BSB) Spell breaker, Master of Sorcery, Great Standard of Sundering
[115]Herald of Khorne - Armour of Khorne

[429]29 Horrors - FC, Changeling, Icon of Sorcery

Thoughts on that? Anyideas what lore to pick for the HoT too?  I always pick life and its getting old.
