Stick 'em with the pointy end

November 26, 2023

That’s the first 40 done. All with sword and shield and all looking pretty great on their movement tray if I do say so myself.

There are 50 still to paint and as they aren’t for a game, equipping them is going to come down to what I think looks best. Current plan is three stands of ten archers and a block of twenty spear and shield.

I have put this project to the side for the next few weeks as I work on some more Nightstalkers. End of January though feels like a good timeline for these though. A little later than I think I mentioned a few weeks ago but there has been a little project popped up on the horizon that will be distracting.

They look great as a unit! 🙂
May be tempted to buy some to complete a Vampire Count army for the Old World (need to finish some goblins first…).

Something you may want to try for the patina: dirty down verdigris product. Easy to apply. It looks great if you apply a thin coat. But the best part is you can remove some of it later with a wet sponge or wet towel. Overall, dirty down verdigris looks great and it is really fast to apply. The only downside: it’s a bit pricey.

Thanks, they were fun to do. It is very much a pointless army that was painted just for the fun of it.

I have the Dirty Down moss but not picked up the verdigris. I don’t see me picking it up for this project cos pennies are super tight right now though

Don’t they look perfect on their little 20mm squares, fitting together like nature intended 🙂
