The Chapel continues with much momentum.
See the brief for the Chapel project here… https://heresyofus.com/2017/01/09/those-who-would-brave-the-chapel/
I was busy nutting away on my Warband when suddenly Heresy posts this doozy…
An exciting distraction to be sure.
Straight away I new I wanted to use a very different head. Something even more surreal.
Latius Gromm the prestigious Ostium Guide –
He does not speak he only gestures
He will show you hell and show you pleasures
Pay him what he asks and you will survive the trip
Deny him what is owed and your blood he will sip
Then after making the first guide I had the idea for a much older and decrepit guide.
Gagus the foul Ostium Guide –
He is older than time and sicker than death
You can smell his insanity on his very breath
He will take you to the gates of hell
He will take you to the drowning well
He will take you on a trip through his rotten mind
He will take all you own including your soul to sell
If you need someone to show you the way
some reassurance at your side
If you are willing to offer some pay
You first need to seek an Ostium Guide
IRO aka Imperial Rebel Ork 
I like the bird head on the first figure is that a Games Workshop piece?
There’s going to be more creepy stuff on your blog by the looks of it, you do this stuff so well.
Cheers Roger.

Interesting take on it mate, both very characterful! I sure as hell wouldn’t book either of ’em as a guide 😉

Haha. They look like they know their stuff but at the same time might just chop you up and sell you for dog food.

Blimey you’re fast! They’re both looking great, but the second guy is definitely the best. I imagine he sees pathways others don’t using that third eye, maybe like some strange navigator throwback?
I’ll be incorporating (stealing) the staff for my own model as well, nice simple design to tie them together 🙂

Yeah the third eye is kind of why I chose that particular head. He can guide you across all types of land and also the uncharted areas of your mind. Thanks for the feedback man. I’m glad you like them.

Well you did say they’d be surreal mate! There’s something of the psychopomp about them both. I can see them as guides of the soul as much as of the body. In that respect they also make me think of the Davinite Priests which led Warmaster Horus into treachery. Like Alex I think, given the choice, that I might buy a map and go it alone but I still like ’em, they ooze creepy character!

Yeah I reckon I’d just fire up the old GPS on the phone. Thanks for the comment.

Nicely done mate. I would have to say the second one is my favourite although I do like the idea of only using hand signals to communicate. I think that would suitably annoy travellers no end!

Gagus is my favourite too. Thanks Heresy. I hope I’m achieving what you’re after.
