EvilClown:
Hey folks,
I guess I should be saying here why I chose the army for this log, what is the fluff behind it, etc. But, I simply can not be bothered, so I’ll go straight to the piccies:
Genestealer Cult Magus (for now)
Same thingy but from different angle
I’ll try and do both a Nid army and a Genestealer Cult army at the same time, as well as my Daemons and possibly my Halloween army as well…
Anyways, thoughts anyone?
Kera foehunter:
Omg its davy jones!!! So what did you use as a head Evil Clown???
i like that sooooooooooooooo much
Willmark:
He who shall not be named is pleased, but says you need to adjust the focus a bit…
Hashut’s Blessing:
Looking good. I thought you had a slightly different idea I say your background and fluff and reasoning should be: because you wanted to and it’s cool etc
GRNDL:
Cthulhu is never out of style!!! I like it!! I too, would like to know what you are using as the head bit. It looks like a lictor head, but its plastic? I didn’t think there were any lictor plastics, so now I’m curious… I could put that bit to good use.
Hashut’s Blessing:
It’s the head of a genestealer.
GRNDL:
After some research, it looks like its a feeder tentacle upgrade for a genestealer which is why I could never see it, unless I was looking at the sprue itself. So, you only get 2 of those heads per genestealer box?
Ishkur Cinderhat:
As the magus is supposed to be the cult’s contact person to the wider public, I would stick to the bald-head style for him and give the cthulhuid appearance to the patriarch instead. But the idea behind the army seems nice.
EvilClown:
Cheers for the comments, folks:cheers
@ GRNDL: Yeah unfortunately, there are indeed only two of such heads in the Genestealer box… which is why I’m now sculpting those tentacles myself (pics coming soon).
@ wallacer::o Must…have…cool…model!! I’m looking on that site now (of Horrorclix), and they do seem to make lotsa cool stuff… Kinda surprised I didn’t know of that before… Cheers a lot!:cheers
@ Ishkur Cinderhat: I know, I had considered that, but this the Magus in battle - revealing his true form. Plus, it would be remiss NOT to have the leader be a Cthulhu-ish creature himself IMO:)
I’ll hopefully post more pics later today.
Ishkur Cinderhat:
Well the patriarch is the actual leader of the cult anyway… the magus is merely his minion. Which rules set are you gonna use for this army?
GRNDL:
@Wallacer
That model is mostly only available on eBay I think nowadays as it was a ComicCon exclusive. I managed to snag one through a local retailer who could pull strings and it is a beautiful model. Not quite to scale for 40k though, unless you need a Bio-Titan!
EvilClown:
Hey again,
It’s update time! I made some more tentacle faces, although in this case, I made them meself - so obviously, the quality isn’t as good as the official model, but it’s good practise nonetheless:)
Anyway, just scroll down a bit and ignore the Space Pigs:
Do you fear Death?
@ Ishkur: I have a Cult list on my pc, the one from a White Dwarf ages ago I think:)
So, thoughts?
Kyte:
The magus looks awfully familiar.
Thanks

Knight Of Awsome:
wow, thats some cool genestealer you got there. Have fun making the largest army every!
EvilClown:
Update time:cheers
I think I’ll call him 'Spidey’
Pic’s a but blurry, but you get the idea.
Hashut’s Blessing:
Looking good. Especially spidey. The one I love most though, is the one devoruing someone’s head with the tentacles
AGPO:
@wallacer: OMG I think I just found my new daemon prince of Nurgle
Kera foehunter:
He so cute i like spidey.
Vasquez:
You just made the “nids” more cool than I ever thought they’d be Love the idea of a Genestealer Cult - Cthulhu style Keep 'em coming! I’d like to see some cultists with hoods and tentacles… any plans for that maybe?? By the way, I just noticed that these guys have a Cthulhu-like standard (maybe you can use it for something):
Vote Cthulhu!
