Hobgoblin Khan

 My fledgling army of Hobgoblins needs a leader and it just so happens I have a guy who's up for the task. 

Scream loudly and carry a big stick.

Well, he maybe eager, but he'll need some work first. These first two pics were taken after I stripped the model of it's gloriously bad paint job. The stuff I strip paint with also has a way of dissolving superglue.  In this case particularly the glob of goop that was holding the cloak onto the Khan's body. It was also pinned in place, which I can still use. 

The cloak is temoved.

Whomever owned this prior to me removed the head of the axe. I thought I had an appropriate replacement, but I couldn't track it down. So I took the head off of a plastic dwarf axe.  I like the idea of this being a corrupted old dwarf weapon. 

Axe head attached. 

After adding the requisite skulls and basing grit to his base, I decided to prime this model using Wraithbone spray. 

Primed. 

And this is where I am paused, contemplating the color scheme I want to run with. I am thinking about attempting a metallic red on the armor, but some experimentation needs to happy beforehand.
