Another update. I've started with the detail painting and I'll be moving on to the bases soon.

Looking good!

As for the headgear decoration, it reminded me of this...

A quote regarding Voltigeur Shako plumes...

“The plumes were liked by Napoleon, in some early fight, he discovered that the tall color plumes magnified his soldiers' appearance and caused the enemy to fire too soon and too high. The soldiers like the plumes during parades and generally in peacetime.
In combat, however, they thought that the color plumes attracted far too much attention from enemy's artillery and skirmishers. It was also impossible to hide in tall crops and surprise the enemy with a sudden attack. The enemy saw your tall plumes before you saw him.”

AIM for those marks and odds are you will kill the hat rather than the dwarf.

I have now painted the bases. I used my usual Snakebite Leather colour as a base and highlighted it with either Flesh or white.

The eight Flintloque Dwarf Landwehr have been varnished and I have decorated the bases with static grass and static grass tufts. I still need to model the rampaging Werewolf and I will be posting details soon, but for now, here are the eight finished Dwarves;

Following on from the Flintloque Dwarf Landwehr I have started work on the Werewolf. I chose a model from the Reaper Miniatures Dark Heavens Legends range - Werewolf Alpha 03946 sculpted by T. Manor. For more information see the Blog.

The latest Blog update shows how I both based and added 'body' to the Reaper Miniatures Werewolf miniature. For full details and more images, see the Blog.
