Thanks guys! The Phoenix Guard cloaks do look quite nice, I think, and were worth the effort.

The red weapons are a bit polarising - some people really hate them! - but I like them. They really give the army a unique visual element, and that is always nice.

I based my Tomb King catapults, and found that it really helps to tie them in with the army. Confuses opponents sometimes though, which is a slight problem.


I like the weapons as they are adds another spot of colour.

Not sure how people could be confused by a big skull firing catapult, I cant think of many other things it could be mistaken for

Hey all,

So after frantically finishing a Warsphinx for a doubles tournament on Saturday, I relaxed yesterday by finishing off my Bolt Thrower.



The wood effect - the same as on my lances and spears - has come out decently at this scale, though it is a little dark from a distance.



I'm not all that happy with the crew - they are all kinds of dull, and the white doesn't look as impressive with no darker colours to contrast with - but they look decent enough when standing next to their charge.



Here is how they look when taken off the base. I'm fairly happy with this, though I could still cut those black squares out to allow the crew to 'stand through' the warmachine base. What do you think? Otherwise this is finished, and ready to join the army as it stands...



This is all of my painted models. Not that much so far, being about 1700 points if I take all the characters and some magical banners, but I'm slowly getting there.

Until next time!
