Post: Emperor’s Children Noise Marine and squad
I picked up the new Noise Marine when it came out. I loved the old Noise Marine, had one the first time round, remember Warhammer records and was a tweenage metaller and all that stuff. Even though glam or hair metal wasn’t really my bag, I prefered Metallica and Iron Maiden until I discovered Nirvana and that changed everything… but yeah I love that the old noise marine was painted as a glam-metal type, and that maximalist silliness was definitely a certain type of Slaaneshi worshipper. I tried to paint the new one according the box art. This is not something I normally do because I have ideas in my head that I prefer to the box art. But the box art was full of ideas and tricky techniques and I wanted mine to pop as much as possible and didn’t trust my own aesthetic sensibilities to come up with something as good as theirs. According to the 8th ed. dataslate in the box, Noise Marines come in a squad, of which between 1 and All must have sonic blasters and 1 can have a blastmaster. I decreed the Noise Marine to have the sonic blaster, the Space Crusade marine has the blastmaster, and the rest have the standard boltguns. I thought that the 6th ed. Chosen and the SC chaos sergeant made good Slaaneshi marines, and I think the other one comes from the baddies for Blackstone Fortress.
I don’t expect to post again this year, so have a good holiday season and I hope 2024 brings you joy! Thanks for reading and looking at pictures of my averagely-painted minis, I appreciate you all!
