[WM] Slaanesh Nippon
« on: July 14, 2015, 12:46:18 PM »
Posted pics of Project Cathay here a while back.  Since then I've been working on a couple of minor projects.  Here's number 1.  Wanted some locally-themed opposition to Cathay.  Son & heir (who took these pics) already has the Ogre Kingdoms neighbours.  Had some space in the Slaanesh carry case, and having played against Janners' Nippon, I decided to use my daemonettes as warrior monks and put a Nippon army together.  File names indicate intended use and manufacturer.

The 15mm Sengoku figures could work with this army,

either the demons as Trolls / Ogres:

or these cool snake men for Dragon Ogres / Trolls / Ogres etc.

Snake one seems very slaanesh!

Many thanks for the tip-off.  I wasn't planning on an expansion of the Nippon army.  But now I may have to reconsider that decision!
