Gorax, the redhead is for you tides

Thanks zfreie that was indeed the plan

Laris, sorry no redhead, liked it white.

That wolfie fella looks cracking. Not sure about the big piece of lichen though; obscures too much of the pose. great paintjob though

My dad said the same thing and I removed most of it.

I really dig that armour scheme. I like the white wolf will be quite striking amongst the other models.

Thanks, you are right. The white wolf, and the gorax (which is actually a slightly lighter shade of red) stick out nicely and break up the army fairly well.

Cool. The red angry dude is very angry. Nice work.

EDC

Yeah, red head works well.

As another suggestion (your dad will be able to confirm that I do this a lot), the edge of the fur patches, where it meets the "skin" could be improved by making sure that the raised fur detail is painted darker around the edge than both the skin and fur; this will look like the shadow.
At the moment the edges are red (skin coloured) rather than grey (fur coloured), which looks odd, to me.

However, this probably doesn't show in real life and is not something to worry about for gaming purposes (which I know is the point of these for you), and only really shows in photos when they are blown up huge on a large monitor.

Consider it something to strive for.
Or just ignore me, it's only a suggestion.

Grey wolf is nice too.

Well I'm inexcusably late catching up on my P&M blogs but that red head looks really great!!

We demand an update!

Red Head looks brilliant, really angry and about to hurt someone, nice paint job.

Wolfy looks fantastic, shame he is covered up by that basing, need to trim your bush young man.

Actually, at the moment he doesn't have anything to paint. Hordes isn't like 40k... you don't need dozens of figures to field a modest sized army. We are waiting to run into a friend of mine whose got something for him... but scheduling has been difficult. Thanks for keeping tabs on the blog though Cam, I'm sure he'll post something as soon as he's got something to work on.

Ironic you don't need hordes to play Hordes, but do for 40k. No projects for crons or some throwback Doom Eagles?

He's not particularly enthusiastic about that at the moment. I'm sure there are necron projects that he'd paint... but I'd have to build those stupid, complicated models (which is why he doesn't want to do it).

Hey, sorry I haven't been active lately, as Gits mentioned I don't have anything to paint, and at least for the next two weeks I have finals, WOO. As a result I won't have much time. However, I plan to paint a model for my D&D DM at school before the year ends, so I will post that hopefully soon.

Best of luck with the finals.

And don't worry we're just kidding about updates. We are infinitely patient old farts, we will wait happily for you. As to a lack of models to paint, well we will have to see about that. Maybe if I send you something you will actually paint it.

Ouch...

Yeah better to take your time on building things up . Honestly, now is a great time to take a short pause because the new rules will be released in one month's time, and once they are you can play around with list building and see what would make sense!

I am really stoked for the new MK3 rules... will make things so much more streamlined, and encourage taking more warbeasts (although you're already taking them, which is great!). The Circle spoilers are supposed to come out later this week!

Are you aiming at an exclusively wolfy horde? Or are you going to expand to the stone golems or the goats?

very very cool work, well done!
