Tale of Warmaster Painters II: February...

[azrael71]

Just 5 characters today as I have been working on my shaggoth :0

Not too happy with these pics as the colours are not coming out quite right especially on the veins on the herdstones (inspired by me reading shaman slayer at the minute).
Will have to have a play with the settings

Doombull 2 absolute uber-awesome
All the other stuff quite good - I like the freehands on the Tzeentch Bray Shaman

Keep on beeing that busy.

Very nice beastmen!

@Vincent: Amazing units! Really impressive. I think I have to challenge that army when its done!

I didnt make it for last weeks entry but I am working on it! Heres a rough WIP of 2 Chariot crews:



Hope to finish the chariots by the end of this week.

I would be more than happy to play against you. But I remind you we do not live in the same country

Bah, when has that ever stopped a game eh?

But then there's being in different states (or provinces) this side of the pond.

Azrael, those beastmen look very nice.  I wasn't sure about them when viewing them on the Eureka web site but seeing yours painted they definately look good.  Now I have to try and resist buying yet another Warmaster army.

@Vincent: Superb stuff, not that I expected any less from you. I'm now scouring ebay for super-cheap undead so that I can have a go at a unit or two of skeletons in the same style to see just how viable a whole army would be.

@Azrael: I love the fact that you've not only raced way ahead but that you've had to start a whole new army just to keep us company. Those beasts look really good, the only think I'm unsure about is the blue patterning on the herdstones (I like the red one). Maybe it's because it looks metallic.

@Guthwine, looking good, that non-blue scheme is very nice indeed.

As for my painting, a crazy work schedule and the winter Olympics has put a serious dent into my painting time. The fact that I've just agreed another Blood Bowl commission isn't going to help much either. Still, I'm determined to get a unit sorted this week so there should be something to share by Sunday.

@guthwine - loving the greens on your elves, they really do make a nice change

@everyone, thatnks for the kind words.
The veins on the herdstones are both metallics but not showing up (as you would expect) I have gone round then with black to make them stand out more.

As for racing ahead, as I have said before, please don't let my speed put you off, it is just how I paint, we all do things differently and that is a good thing. I wish my quality was up there with everyone elses. One thing I have got from these challenges is trying to make a bit more of an effort with the basing

 I do burn out regularly and cannot go near an army for months.
Got to say the thought of the 15 units sat undercoated follwed by around another 24 is starting to be a little overwhelming

I keep saying "pictures soon", but I'll say it again.  Pictures soon!

My Pendraken order came in.  I am using the 10mm aliens from the sci-fi range.  Khursan Miniatures has 15mm "space demons" that are larger versions of basically the same thing.  I plan on using one of the larger demons on the base to indicate a "command" stand, and then filling the rest of the stand with 10mm figs.

I also ordered AC34 -- "Tentacled Behemoth", which I will use as the figures for a second unit of Daemon beasts.

hi Guys not posted for a couple of weeks but i have had a good excuse, my wife has just given birth to our 4th Son via c-section, so not had much opportunity to paint, saying that i have managed to complete 5 units of high elves as test cases and am happy with them, i have gone with a golden armour theme similar to LOTR elves, hope to get pictures posted with the help of Mr Ralf. Also managed to paint 3 units of warmaster medievals for my Italian Condotta army, full 1500 points painted now, played my first big game last night down at my club, 3000 points a side it looked and played awesome, i really like some of the rule changes they made to Warmaster historical and would dearly love to see those changes with the fantasy version.
Anyway off to Dave Vos to do some more painting, hope to get those pictures up soon.

Congratulation for there recruitement

[David Wasilewski]

We painted at mine last night (I did the flesh on my 3 regiments of flaggelants). Mark shared an awesome idea for his High Elves - to make some of the chariots be pulled by lions - (white lions of Chrace style) anyone know any 10mm lion like models that would be of an appropriate size?

Oh and Marks 5 regiments of HE are excellent - the white and gold makes them very bright.
