Kitbashed (converted for GW Peoples) Chaos Centaur. He is based on an Empire horse with a Chaos Maurder Body, arms and head. Bretonian standard-yes I know it should have symbols, I'll add them if something meaningful comes up. Wolf rider goblin Standard topper, a 40k ribbon(On other side) Green stuff (bags, gold things and other things) and an undead sheep skull in the ground.

This has taken me about 12 hours to paint, about 1 hour to put together and about 2 hours to apply putty features and file. I dropped it twice and broke the arm off, but that was easily fixed with superglue. I used 24 different bottles of paint—so much for my attempt at keeping it simple.

I did have 3 bottles of citdel paint left, actually inks which I love. I love the ink washes. One thing I will say about the ink washes is a trick I picked up from the local Games Workshop some years ago. They used future floor wax to help the ink spread. As this wax is a clear acrylic it worked well and it smells good. (warning it tastes bad if you are a brush licker). Finally I flocked the base, inked, drybrushed then gave it a clear coat then flock. (static grass is the next best thing to itching powder trust me.)

I think I am naming this centaur Hektor
