Retirement, I wish  lol

Got several large commissions on the go eating up most of my time but I've been getting in a bit of tarting up time here and there and here are some more Empire troops that have been tarted and rebased  :)

The original work on them was done years ago and they probably would've done but it'll be good to get all my Empire troops to the same standard (sort of).

cheers

Looks great (yours).

Thanks chaps  :)

Not great but they'll do as unit fillers.

Decent?

They look GREAT!  Love the stone troll back on the other page too!  I have a big tub full of them, I was going to do a troll army back in the days when you could have one.  Who was it, Throg maybe?

I'm going to have to go back and do some painting now too!!!

I to am doing a bit of Properhammer painting to. It is a bit disconcerting that second hand ebay items  you are looking for to filll some  gaps cost as much or more than they did back in the day. I should have made an even more substantial investment.

Looking good Jim :-* :-* :-*
What rule edition do you use for Old warhammer?
Back in the day my brother, Andym, had an empire army but most of the troops didn't have arms nor were they fully painted :o :o :o
That was in the days before he was shamed by LAF
I have an old Dwarf army that I may have to get out and have a look at, also a woodelf army as well

Cheers fellas  :)

Got some more done. Just touching up on these, bases, matt varnish and sorting the horses out (snapped tails etc) etc.

Fortunately I think I’ve got everything want but of course that will probably change in the future  lol

Nothing yet mate but it will possibly be a fantasy mod of M&T or the eventual mass battle rules from Fistful of Lead.

Bring out your lead  :D

It's a pleasure to see those old school pistoliers - so much better than the fantasy plastic ones.

Nice!

I have ten or so that I got in a long ago trade, with a sub-standard paint job.  Had to do like you mentioned too, drill/pin to reattach the broken off tails. 

I think mine need an upgraded paint job now!

So, they’re a tiny fraction of the cost of modern GW stuff?
