I actually finished Eagon up a week or two ago, but couldn't find any Dullcote until yesterday to finish him up. He's all set to go now though. The eagles are proving more difficult as I can't decide on a good way to paint them.

Everything looks fab!   Love the custom dragon... subtle work on those horns.

Slow week this week. Most of June is going to be slow in the painting department. Here's some Seaguard that I'm working on. I'm got to put a quiver on the guy ion the left, and fill in some undercut areas but I think this will get the idea across. I'm also thinking of doing something special with the helmet.





Here's a musician and standard bearer I'm working on too. Since I only have one of each of these guys I think I'm going to make them Swordmaster command first.

That looks so fiddly - are you going to make an entire unit of them?!

Those look great, I look forward to seeing them ranked up once you've laid down some serious science on them!

The Dwarves weren't holding my attention much so I swung back towards my first WM army. These Sword Masters have been a long time in coming. I still need to finish up their command but in the meantime I started in on the rank and file for two units worth.





Additionally, I thought it was time to work on something completely superfluous for the army. Namely, casualty counters. What general wouldn't want to represent his own troops brutally hacked apart and left for dead on the battlefield?

That's a really nice army Dave!

Are the Sword Masters from the Character set or did you cut the OOP stripes into pieces? Actually cutting the OOP guys makes a lot of sense, since you can now "create" different stripes.

The SM originated from the character pack.

I am intrigued!

I've got a few more ideas that ought to pique your intrigue even higher. Know what I mean? Nudge nudge, snap snap, grin grin, wink wink, say no more...

Work continued on the Sword Masters and markers this past week. I finished the flesh on all of them, washing it and hitting it with two highlights. I also hit the first strip with the white basecoat.



Next week will see the white finished most likely and on to the red.
