This is a painting off of my post-Dark Heresy/Black Crusade group from Warhammer 40K. It's not at this time an accurate representation of it (countless battles/gear upgrades/mutations have occured since I started painting it, aswell as me leaving out the groups cameleoline cloaked beaurocrat ^_-), but what can you do.



From left to right: Harlock, post-Inquisitional sniper turned psyker. He's been able to rack up an impressive kill count, and became even more powerful as he learnt to control his psykik (psychic?) powers. He has by far managed to outrun most of us in cheer amount of corruption points, and has managed to mutate his eyes, grown wings (which happened recently - not included in painting) and an ability to phase through matter. Also a survivor of two grand possessions (who knew pushing psychic abilites was a bad thing?).



Scarlett, the chaos cult of Vulture's rest's resident psyker - a completly devouted follower to the dark gods. She managed to become the first marked character of the group (Tzeentch), and is insanely powerful. Scrimshaws stuff in her spare time - mostly her own arms, but one can usually follow the trail of scrimshawed chaos runes in order to find her. Stole parts of a Sororitas light power armour, and has a disc of Tzeentch called Fredrik (name might be pending, but that's what we've come to call him x)).



Sessily "Star" the renegade, previously hired scum for the Inquisition (they needed someone with skill close to Vulture's Rest that could help bring down a heretic - her previous career as a bounty hunter made her a "candidate"). After being pressganged into the Inquisition, she sought many an opportunity to break free from the Empire (she grew up on a frontier world, and had no loyalty to the people that arrived in a massive ship and put her in chains). She didn't need much convincing when offered to join chaos - it was the closest thing to freedom she'd come to know since the pressganging-incident. She was always a distrusting sort, and after joining chaos she also became very paranoid. Notable accomplishments: surviving 6 dozes of Nurgles Rot, and countless critical wounds.



Asgrim the Servitor. He's technically a heretek with the mechanoid mutation, so he looks like a machine, but he hasn't been available during the campaign - wanted to paint him anyways, 'cause tech priests/hereteks are pretty badass :3



Wilhelm the renegade, previously an Inquisitional hierophant, joined chaos after realizing that the reward we'd recieve for completing the Inquisition's mission was a boltshot to the head. He started out as a fanatic, with the belief that there is no innocence. He became known as an unstoppable force who had no qualms about burning anything, or anyone. Also known for inflicting burnwounds on his own body, to repent for his sins. After hearing a voice in his head he started becoming more unstable, and eventually became this winged monster. Nowadays he's aligned with Khorne, has a legacy of Slaughter-weapon (which was a powermaul.. now it's more of a chain-power-bloodlusting-super-weapon) and leads a group of savage Ork Bloodboyz (if there is such a thing as "humie lead da boyz").
