Chaos Lord joins the heroes for power
Quick one tonight, whilst the core complete it is great fun adding even more heroes both good and bad that can take on the Silver Tower.
This time it is a Chaos Lord looking to claim power from the Gaunt Summoner.
Again contrast but this time with a little more layering on the cloak to try and achieve an old leathery look, it is not great but for tabletop I am happy.
Play time
So this entire project was painted on stream and it was something I really enjoyed sharing with those people that came and support me, the conversation and interaction really helped me get through to the end.
This is the first project I have posted in quite some time and it feels good to complete something.
Really enjoying the streaming aspect and I can see myself doing this quite regularly now https://www.twitch.tv/thehobbylodge
As a family, we have now completed 3 shards of the Silver Tower so 5 more to go before we can claim the power of the Gaunt Summoner.
Thanks
1 hour hero
Painted this up on stream last night, a quick one hour job to get it to the table.
Why clear bases
I went with clear bases because this is a board game with some very highly decorated tiles, and whilst I could try to paint bases it would result in some very odd fits.
With clear bases it means one I could cut down the project time and I think it gives a great look against the very nice tiles
Hero time
One thing we like about the Warhammer Quest game is they provide cards to pretty much use any Hero character from the fantasy range, so over time I am adding all sorts of faction heroes.
The Guant Summoner
This is the main guy and so I spent some good time on him to get some of the blends better than just contrast can do on its own. But I will say for flame effects using the red, orange and yellow and allowing them to run into each other is a great way I find to blend quickly.
I am really happy with the way he turned out.
Skaven badass
Love this model and in-game it is super dangerous, painted in two versions just to keep things interesting but painting method remains the same.
