Actually, most of the Pike Dwarfs are White Knight miniatures, now sold by TAG. But 4 of them are Marauder, including the command.

Hahaha, yeah, never thought about that before. I made the pipe myself, out of wire and greenstuff. The mini had an odd hole in his mouth and I decided to give him a pipe rather than trying to sculpt a mouth.

Building on the background story for my Dwarf Army the main portion of my Dwarfs left the mountains and moved to the hills outside the main human settlements, acquiring the lifestyle and habits of the humans. This works well with the Marauder and White Knight renaissance style minis and of course some of my older Dwarfs are just grumpy and still do it the old ways.

Then we have these Dark Dwarfs now. In my background story for them I decided that these are the Dwarfs that stayed behind in the mountains. Apparently something happened there which drove their regular kin to move and the same event has driven these guys to dig deeper and now live deep beneath the mountain.

The Dark Dwarfs have become twisted in mind and appearance, but when a war is fought on the ground they still come to help their distant relatives. Not only because they are related, but also because they just love the bloodshed and mayhem.

Post by: 3 fingers on March 09, 2018, 07:33:34 PM: Those Dark dwarves are awesome ,they look better than the slayer dwarves, though they strangely remind me of the large creatures on fraggle rock.?
Title: Re: Medieval Squats Part II
Post by: Jonas on March 09, 2018, 07:47:27 PM: The Gorgs lol

I quite like these dwarfs, even though they are kind of strange looking. I do have some Slayers coming up too though and I even painted a Dark Dwarf slayer, but since I damaged my SD card for the camera I can currently only take 3 photos at a time.

Yeah, I know. But this is Fantasy, so a bit of word play must be allowed ;)

The army will end up a total mish mash of old school goodness.

The Classic Army Pose!

So far my army consist of the following characters and units:

Dwarf General
Runepriest
Engineer

Two units of 10 Warriors
One unit of 10 Quarrellers

A Cannon and a Giant

= 1000 points for AoS.
