hi, i’m the guy that wrote the hell cannon article :). i decided not long after building my first that i’d make some more chaos dwarves for my mortal chaos army. obviously M3 troops are hard to represent with any of the chaos infantry, but bull centaurs as knights make enough sense and so i made 6.
i have WiP pics too if anyone’s interested, as well as a half finished sorcerer lord on lammassu (the only real CD model i own, the rest are conversions) and unpainted sorcerer on magic carpet.
Good work on the Bull Centaurs looking good, i like the banner with the rune of Hashut on it and Slaanesh, these two gods would make good natural allies what with Khorne hating Slaanesh and Hashut hating Khorne after losing to him the old saying My enemies, enemies is my friend comes to mind.
i used orc boars and dwarf miners with marauder horsemen shields and a few other chaos bits. oh and those pins too
my chaos armies all follow slaanesh, so i felt that if i were to add in some chaos dwarves they’d need to follow the theme somehow. even though CD don’t follow slaanesh, the idea is they’re allied in. i used the same colour pallet for them as i did the rest of my chaos bar the flesh and hair colours.
a pretty cheap conversion really, you could get the main parts for a unit of 5 for 20 quid. and then have 5 dwarves left over to fill out ranks or whatever.
here are the pics of my painted lammassu:
havn’t got round to painting the rider yet, nor have i got round to finishing off his on foot counterpart. believe it or not, i got sent the lammassu by a chap i met on the underempire for 12 quid. if you’re unsure how much 12 quid is, that’s the same price as a box of empire state troops.
