Blood and Souls for my Lord Arioch

Here is the first a short number of posts that will centre around Citadel Chaos Warriors from the pre slotta era in the early eighties.

The title of the post comes from Elric himself, an original chaos warrior pledged to Arioch, Knight of the Swords and patron of Melnibone. If you haven't read Michael Moorcock's Elric saga then try and make the time to do so.






Both of these figures can be found in Citadel Compendium 2 and several others from this range will be appearing here soon. Still looking for a several of these figures to complete the set, so you know of anyone with some lead to move on leave a comment below.




Next up will be more work in progress and something completely different.

Cheers for now

Nice job, they look great...and fierce!

I do like the first figure, is it me or does the sword look a little to heavy for the poor chap??

I'm just rereading the Corum books at the most and will get to the Elric ones soon.

Nice figures and a great post.

Great stuff, haven't seen those figures in years. I haven't read any Moorcock for a while either!

Very cool figures! That Elric could double as a Richard III, methinks! :)

Thanks Phil

Yes, it does seem that the sword is overly heavy for its wielder.

Corum, I haven't read those books in almost 30 years. God, where does the time go....

Cheers, Ross

Sadly, they don't make them anymore. Glad that you liked them.

Cheers, Ross
