The Avatar of Khaela Mensha Khaine, molten god of war and murder, the Bloody-Handed One, is not Khorne. But you can see where the entirely correct analysis mistake comes from:
 |
Molten metal, cooled and cracking as it moves, charred from heat and fuelled by devotion, faith, and blood - the Avatar of Khaine's very footsteps char and burn the ground
|
 |
The Bloody-Handed One's name is not hyperbole!
|
This is, of course, the result of me getting distracted and sidetracked by the Endless Spells and the Avatar of Khaine rather than working on the Melusai. I was fiddling around with army builders last night and discovered I have just under 1,500 points (1,480) of Daughters of Khaine at the moment, but that it will be quite hard to bring it up to 2,000 and keep within the Melusai theme without being very repetitive. I'd put Morathi in but she's over 700 points and that pushes the army to something like 2,200 which - again - isn't a particularly useful points value. And honestly the Melusai are a pain to paint the way I'm doing them. Anyway, to put off highlighting individual scales hundreds of times, I did this today as well:
 |
The Iron Heart of Khaine, the result of prayers from priestess of Khaine
|
 |
| Blood oozes from it as it hovers above the battlefield |
|
Tomorrow I'm planning to finish the last Endless Spell, the Bladewind, which shouldn't take too long, and then I can try again at mustering the willpower to paint Melusai. Who knows, maybe I'll come up with a way to spend 520 points and keep to the theme of "everyone's a snake lady*"!
Painting Points:
Today: 10
This Week: 10
2025: 132
