Hello friendly forum dwellers!

Thanks a lot for your nice comments. They motivated me to paint more stuff.

Here are the first units of my new dwarf army. I was trying to find a good balance between the quality of the paint job and the time required to paint them. Please tell me what you think about them and what I should improve (like maybe an extra highlight on the slayer skin?).






I glued magnets onto the first base of the warrior unit. This is why it it looks a lot thicker than the rest. I am not sure if I like that. Acutally I dont like the look of it, but the magnets make transporting the army way easier. What do you think?

These are absolutely stunning - I wouldn't say they need anything adding at all!  The snowy bases are beautiful too!

Great painting! I like the colors and those viking style beards...  8)

The fact of the thicker base is not very noticeable or odd, at least in the pics for me :)

Really, really great paintjob.

I know what I´m talking about because when I did dwarfs I also painted their eyebrows, beards...etc.

Thanks for the kind words guys! Really happy you like the dwarfies.

Here is a stand of nurgle dudes that I painted to see if starting some kind of chaos army is a good idea (I need some evil guys to play against the dwarves and lizzards).

I chose plague bearers because someone on some warmaster forum posted that they can replace marauders and are fast to paint. Which seems to be a good idea.



Sorry for the blurry picture!

That might have been me... my youngest ran a Chaos proxy with these as Marauders and actual WHFB/40K Nurglings as Warriors....

Those where slapdashed...  basic coat, wash and different colors on weapons and hors etc for some variance....

Now your painting makes me want to trow them into a vat of Break Liquid...  :'(

Those Plaguebearers look great. :) It might be mine you're thinking of, I use them as Marauders (along with some Bloodletters) and did it purely for speed. Of the two the Plaguebearers were easily the fastest and I think look the best (I really like the sculpts and the casts were much better too - the Bloodletters had a lot of flash etc). If I get some more PBs the only change I'd make would be to create a standard bearer to indicate the front rank (very helpful when you've got multiple units).

Hi again everyone!

Id like to share some orcs I painted yesterday. They are still work in progress (base not done). The idea behind the color scheme ist make them look like the miniatures 15 years ago when I started with warhammer. Initially I also wanted to include the red color (as in the red period), but decided that this would be too much. Hope you guys like them!
