This guy wasn't too hard, actually, and I still enjoyed painting him. I wanted my armor to be a bit different from how I usually do my infantry armor because, well, he's a beast. So I went with a blue that I mixed with some silver to give it a bit of a sheen. The spikes are a dark bronze color and the detailing and siding are all a light silver. His weapon matches, of course. His skin I actually based as a plain gray, then just went and put several layers of violet over it to give him the usual purple look.
Now, there's supposed to be a few more pieces on him--two wings stubs up on his back, beside his spines. Weeeeeell, I lost one. Oops. So I just decided I'd leave off the other one as well. I mean, why does he even have them to begin with? He doesn't fly.
Now, he's not a game changing piece, but he is pretty handy. This is a piece you keep near your warlock, because he has Shield Guard, which means if a friendly model that is within two inches of him is hit by a ranged attack, he can take the damage instead. He also has Empathic Transference, which means a warlock can transfer damage to him even if he is full on fury, which normally, you cannot do. Handy, like I said. He's got a couple of other tricks, but like I said, he isn't a game changing piece, but it certainly doesn't hurt to have him around. I've used him a couple times and he's helped my warlock several times. ^^
