Nice! Should be a great fit, even going by the little info we've gotten.

And yea, I'll go cross post these to the N&R thread ...

DEAD SEXY! Nice minis!

Reconquista at Partizan 2020, Christian Vignette II

I've been slowly working on vignettes to spread across the table top and create some interest outside of the units of fighting men for the demo.
The second to be finished is a chap being blessed by his Bishop during the battle. Perhaps he is in need of reinforcement to his mettle? Perhaps he is preparing himself for the very real possibility of death? Perhaps he will just look good on the table top!

Oops. I thought it was Kings of War historical!

It is still well-painted, and it is for Kings of War.

Very well painted! And i personally would love to see more kow historical here

Returning gamer here, this is my Vampire Lord. Lot of firsts on this guy, not painted anything in like 10 years.

You can tell he's a vampire lord because he's hanging from the ceiling! (he's right side up in the link at least)

jokes aside he looks good, just a little thinner with the paint maybe? purple is a fitting color

Sorry about the image being wonky. I'm new to Vallejo using a wet pallet and actually thinning paints. Thanks for the feedback

This is my first image of a mini posted on Dakka, despite years of posting. Really liked using this technique.

He's got some mighty looking eyebrows! Nicely done

That berzerker lord is one of my favorite models in Mantic's dwarf line, and you really did it justice.

Working on a Nighstalkers army using primarily the Contrast paint range from GW.

They work pretty well, he's looking nice and creepy.

I am deeply in love with contrast paints. That fellow looks fabulous!

I am not a good painter but in the interest of having some activity here, here is this guy!



also part of my finger is there too

Dope! That looks fantastic and very table-worthy!

It's a wee bit hard to tell, but I bet if you hit it with a little bit of wash, it would really look fabulous.

Now i've gotta go find some KoW stuff to photograph!

Long overdue, here's my Undead army. I haven't figured out how many points this is yet for 3rd edition, but it's around or just under 4,000

The family portrait:


So many commanders, so little time!


Four riders of the Apocalypse (counts as whatever cavalry I'm in the mood to go overboard on. Base size is equivalent to cavalry troop. Skull and Crown Stratagems minis.)


Can a man truly own too many zombies? Hint: this is not all my zombies


Some classic GW chaos warriors, happy to stand in for Revenants or Soul Reavers.


Do the undead even have a giant? How is this not a unit? Anyway, I guess he's just the team mascot.


The undead tend to be slow. So having a few of these in the army is pretty key.


Multibasing is fun - here's a few wraith troops


Woof woof! I don't know what this is, but the model is pretty cool!


I am long done with Warmachine, but true to the theme of the undead, these fellas live on as giant undead infantry in servitude to my Necromancer(s)

Empire of Dust has the Bone Giant if you don't mind changing "nationality".

I have a handful of mummies, evil pharaohs, etc

So... Maybe?

Ooof. I just did the maths. It's closer to 8,500 points of undead. lol

Really like how eclectic the army looks!

Painted this Mantic Undead force in 2 months.



Very happy with how they have turned out... trouble is I want some more now!

The undead list also got a Zombie-monster 'Goreblight' that could stand in for a giant.

It's a bit on the small side for that particular model, Height 4 and a Monster rather than Titan class, but it's close enough, at least for non-tournament games and/or regular opponents.
