And last, but not least, the Demon Prince with his little pe(s)ts and my Chaos Sorceror (he is some kind lf named character in GW lore) with his summoned pest demons!

Hope you like them.

Definitely Slaanesh! The blue and pink colors, crazily dressed beastmen (teddies mostly) plus hypnotic music, that’s what you experience in her room!

I’ve had another face off with a virus from kindergarten hell that took most of two weeks  o_o thereafter it’s been my wife’s turn again, so hobby time was at an utmost limit…again.

I managed to steal a few minutes here and there and managed to get some  trees battle ready. These will soon be „reinforced“ by mutated plants to make up for a true chaos forest.

The models are simple but nice and were part of my Joan of Arc pledge. The game is really strange: some excellent 15mm stuff but many monsters are so incredibly huge that they would still be large in a 54mm game… when I needed space I sold off most of my pledge and only kept the terrain, village and siege sets. I do regret selling the basic box a little because iirc there were some nice models in it, but alas, better regret it than have some 10+ boxes full of stuff you will never paint blocking one‘s man cave…

Well here are my trees and bushes. Apart from creating a forest terrain feature for 15mm, they could also work fine as shrubbery for 28mm.

I played a bit around with my ad hoc photo station. I managed to get a cöean background and might add another light source and a holder for my mobile, but I am quite happy with the results.

Here are some older models from my pseudo-arthurian collection of knights.

1. Dwarf knight vs. The Green Knight
2. Wizard, Hellyboy and a Roman Knight (Grenadier High Elf champion)
3. Arthur and the good guys including two fey
4. the bad guys

Cool adventurer parties!

I love this green knight! Looks like the perfect final boss of a campaign.

Thanks! The Green Knight is actually an old 25mm Citadel miniature. I was heavily inspired by John Howe‘s famous picture:

Sir Gawain is in the evil posse. :)

These are great - and that chaos warrior is just the ticket for the Green Knight!

Thank you! Words like these are always appreciated  :)

Great artwork

Yeah, I like it a lot, too. Arthurian fantasy is so much underexplored in tabletop wargaming. Everyone did Tolkien, now everyone copies GW, few people risk new ideas (there are such things, though, KA and 3d printing made a lot of things possible). Knights both good and evil in a fragile peace solving quests, fighting giants and a world full of pixies, fae etc.

These are great - and that chaos warrior is just the ticket for the Green Knight!

Oh, I forgot that he was one of those early chaos warriors! Of course, that makes a lot of sense. Thanks for pointing that out.
I guess, I still have one or two other models from the set. Sadly they are too small for all modern ranges, but thanks to you and this forum, I have really learned to appreciate their originality!

I’m still testing my ad hoc photo station and what would be better than to go back to the models that started this thread?
Good evening you sons and daughters of vanquished people, fellow hobgoblins and praised Chaos Dwarf masters!

Here are some of my Chaos Dwarf blunderbusses. The models are sold by Admirality Miniatures via etsy. They are really characterful and paint up nicely.

Praise Hashut!

And here are some of the axe-dwarfs. I haven’t found the time to do the shields. I’m not the greatest painter so I’m kinda afraid of freehands. Is there a good source for 15mm transfers that look proper chaotic and dwarfish?

My small unit of Bullcentaurs and some CDs for size comparison. Nice models, but I need some more for a good sized unit both in Dragon Rampant and KoW.

Second picture shows a selection of hobgoblin servants. Same problem with the shields here. :(

And finally my commanders and their pet demons.
