Hey All,
I have collected a bunch of WM pictures with the good intention of sharing them on these forums as batreps and such. Like many good intentions, they've soured a bit, as I have a ton of battle pictures and no time to write a proper batrep...
so, in order to nibble away at the backlog, I've decided to show off my relatively new dwarf army. Then the 3 batreps won't seem like such a big task...
So, on to the bearded ones:
I decided on a checked color scheme of deep red and mustard-yellow. I wanted them relatively colorful, but not as garish as the Empire can be. So I started with a black undercoat, followed by the red and yellow:
Then came the skin, and of course, the beards. Since the beards are so prominent, I decided to vary the colors. Looking at an entire unit of brown beards would've nibbled away at the sanity of my OCD side
Next I did the metal parts and flags:
Then further detail such as gloves:
And finally, basing and painting the bases. An example of some warriors before flocking and sealing. I decided to also apply a black wash to their beards and faces after this pic was taken:
The infantry and artillery at the same level of completion:
The flame cannons are converted skaven warp cannons (or whatever they're called). Seemed to me some sort of metal would work better for fire-related weaponry, so I made them brass-colored (converted still-style - appropriate for beer-swilling dwarves, yes?) You may recognize the heroes from the BoFA box set.
Slayers before the wash and basing/flocking:
I will get around to the finished product-pictures soon. Enjoy!
