So ages ago I wrote a blog post about a proposed female SM army, the Space Kittens. Well I've not worked on the background a lot, until prompted recently. I do have round 1500pts painted and converted, though so I thought it about time to consolidate the background I put forward in the first post.
If you go back and read the linked blog post you will see I had three streams of thought regarding the background, in the end I went for a combination of the first two (well three, technically).
So, as I did a census of my Craftworld force I thought I ought to do one for my Kabal, as it helps me keep track of things. What is listd below is everything that is painted, I've still got boxes of stuff to assemble and paint. All are the new range as I loath everything from the old one:
Archons x2 (one metal, one converted from plastic bits. Both girls)

Most of the Aspects are mixes of all the three generations, though over half would be the latest sculpts. No pictures, sorry:
Autarch x 3
Farseer x 4

For most of my hobby career I've avoided major conversions, as I've not deemed them necessary. I've done headswaps and some minor GS work to make female models and such but little beyond that. I've always felt the existing models were lovely so why bother? But lately I've been doing more ambitious conversions, maybe I'm growing as a person/hobbyist?
Oh and in a small update to this, we have another silly 40k themed song:
