The Aurora Contingent

The Posse so far starting to get a good range of depth now. My next purchase won’t be for awhile but will put some of my next battle report photos up afterwards.

I found myself lacking some hand to hand combat clout in my game. The best way to overcome this is an absolute combat monster in a Magenta Alpha. I wanted to keep her simple but intimidating so I went with a classic red and black demonic theme. I cannot wait to watch her dismantle anything she touches.

I decided my Greys needed some leadership so I picked a grey elite to add to the fold. Super easy to build and a joy to paint. I cannot wait to see what he can do on the table.

So my next move was to pick up some hands to flesh out the posse a bit. Great models some were a little tricky to put together but look amazing when they are put together. The scheme also worked incredibly well on the greys and the models looked fantastic I put the rest together and painted them all up shortly afterwards.

After my successful test scheme I cracked on with the rest of the posse done. I am incredibly happy with how they all turned out and I am ready to add some more hands to the posse.

The next step was to get some paint down onto the stuff I had built. I did some test work with the new GW technical paints. Both of them (nighthaunt gloom & hexwraith flame) did exactly what I expected them to do. I wanted to have them not be to darkmin tone but keep a sort of creepy edge. I decided to go with a slightly B-movie scheme which turned out much better than I expected.  So next job is to finish the rest of the posse.

So I picked up my posse starter in July and got straight to work putting it all together. Great models and easy to put together.
