The Purple People Eaters, a Slaaneshi warband..

in between working on my Altheim city project, I've been painting up the odd small project as a break to stop me getting bored. This time it's a small Slaanesh Warband made up of figures that have been sat unloved in the leadpile for many years. In fact, as I think this is the very first time I've painted anything relating to Slaanesh, ever!

Anyway, here's the warband, preparing to defend their vile temple:

The warband is led by Dechala the Denied one, one of my favourite models from my least favourite GW era (mid-late 90's):

Next up is an old Chaos Beastman that I've repurposed as a Chaos Warrior and Dechala's main sidekick:

An Ogre provides a bit of heavy support. Whilst not particularly Slaaneshi, I've given him some colour-matched trousers to add to the theme, and a Slaanesh tattoo:

The bulk of the warband's firepower, however, is six Daemonettes, Slaanesh's favourite number:

And finally, just to add a bit of unpredictable madness to the proceedings, a Chaos Spawn:

Oh wow! What a great warband!

Variety in miniature choice, all bound with an effective color scheme.

Also, thumbs up for including the very middlehammer chaos spawn and Dechala, their sculpt fit it very well with the demonettes.

If a Bosch painting were to come to life and walk onto a battlefield I expect it might look something like this. I am absolutely not a chaos guy, but . . . nicely done! :) Love the eyeballs on the chaos spawn in particular.

Thanks! It's actually the new GW Contrast paints, it was a coat of Guilliman flesh over wraithbone, after that I then added some highlights with Kislev Flesh paint.
 
And a few more members added; An ME55 Mouth of Sauron converted to be the Herald of Slaanesh, a C29 Jabberwock, and a Champion of Slaanesh:
