the pics are a bit blurry, it's hard to give you feedback on these.
They look funky, and potentially good.

Yeh, the macro function was a bit iffy on the camera.

I am undecided on whether I like the chaos warrior.... some days I do, some I think there is something missing or too much. The beastmen are generally ok.

I have also just acquired some Dark Angel marines (plastic ones) and they could make decent Chaos Warriors with some tinkering. I want a Tzeentch-themed team so having Warriors in robed armour would be appropriate.

Though I am wondering whether they will look fantasy enough or just like Space Marines out of place.

The warrior in the picture is definately fantasy based, though is he Tzeentchy enough? I was thinking my next warrior could be based off of a flamer with the lower half of his torso being a Flamer with the upper half being human (armoured of course). Plus there are the obvious birdy-themed tzeentch things so I can give them wings and beaked heads and so forth.

I was also wondering about making some marauders/fanatic fans/cheerleaders using the Empire Fanatic models. Again they are robed so would fit the Tzeentch theme well and they also look a bit psychotic to contrast with the cold, steely helmed warriors.

This is the potential line up for my Tzeentch-themed Chaos team.

There are two mutated marauders, 1 untainted beastman, and 1 chaos warrior. Not sure about the Chaos Warrior yet as they look smaller than the beastmen even though they are supposed to be stronger. The other picture posted previously is the first concept I had for a Chaos warrior (more fantasy and mutated and much larger).

The marauders and the Chaos warriors are both in robes as this to me represents Tzeentch as a magic-focused team. I might convert the Chaos warriors further so they have mutations and so forth. Also, I could mount the warriors on discs of tzeentch even though this would not be represented in their rules it would just be for theme (the discs would be just the normal sized round base with spikes and such added, not the large disc model).

So what do you think?
