[WM] TooN's Warmaster Armies
« on: September 03, 2012, 09:54:29 AM »
Hi there everyone!

Since I am enjoying all the nice figures posted in these forums, I would like to share my stuff too. Id like to start with my lizardmen army. It is my first army and it took about 4 months to paint them. I yet have to play my first game of warmaster, but I fear I will never find someone to play with.

The pictures are a little too dark. The reason being that I just suck at making pictures and have bad luck with the light (it was so sunny yesterday, but once I was ready to photograph the army, the sun was gone).

Anyways, here is the army:























This picture is a little large, the others are smaller to fit the forum layout.

Hope you like them!

Wow! These are marvellous and make me want to get an army of lizards right now!

Where are you based? I'd love to play against this army if you're somewhere nearby (though if the weather was good where you are then I don't think you live near me!)

Wow, those are great models! I am not into the look of lizardmen, but looking at those makes me want to buy an army!

Purple  - bold colour choice but it really works!
The purple and yellow skinks work particularly well!

Much kudos to you - may your monkey venom darts fly true. :)

These are stunning, I'm sorry that I'm miles away in Berkshire!

Love the bone helmets especially.

A very nicely painted army!!

I really like the color choices and it all blends well together as a cohesive force.  I'll be stealing some of the color schemes for my Lizardmen (when I get to them)!

Great painting. I also like the color choice and your highlighting. Plus you get a bonus for the nice "jungle" background in some of the pics....

Hello there everyone,

thanks a lot for the nice comments! After reading them I got a huge motivation boost to paint even more.  :D I am happy you like the color scheme. I was a little worried about the army being too colorful; for all my warhammer armies I used only very few colors and this was my first time using so many distinct ones.

Initially I planed to add another unit of saurus to the army in order to make it more symmetric (if that makes any sense), but I got distracted by dwarves. They are really cool and I painted one stand of warriors and one stand of slayers already to test the color scheme. I intend to make some pictures of them this weekend and post them here. It would be cool to get some suggestions about the way my dwarf army could look like and what I could improve with regards to the painting.

I live in Paderborn, a city in Germany. I am also quite often in Austria visiting my girlfriend (Salzburg and Vienna). There are like no warmaster players around here, at least I never met one. Though I wouldnt mind to travel in order to play a game. Right now my plan is to finish another army and play with my friends who are not into wargaming. My first victim will be my girlfriend.

Hey Toon, hook up with Gerald, Sia and company,  there is a significant playerbase around Vienna and there are several german players I am aware of too.

And keep an eye out for a new EuroGT....

Now I HAVE to paint a lizardman army. That Slann is AMAZING! What a wonderful army. I can't find a flaw, really good work and I'm not trying to be patronizing, I really mean it.

I wish you guys were near me I would love to play a game with such a beautiful army on the table.
