Quick group shot
Up next archers, some light cavalry and a mounted version of our hero.
Then the Fallen wolf riders!

Lovely use of the oathmark orc bodies. I had thought about but not got around to doing something like that.

Ooh! I like those a lot! As Ogrob says, you made the orc bodies look really good as the base for grubby and downtrodden human militia. I think I might pinch that idea to make up a set of bandits for skirmish games, so thanks for the inspiration!

Great stuff. You've done a nice job with those Oathmark human kitbashes and as Ogrob said the use of Orc bodies is really smart. I also really like those 'fallen' heads and how you've painted them.

Really great work. So much atmosphere oozing from the Knight.

Thanks cap 👍🏼👍🏼
Couple more shots of the new arrivals
Trying to get a good one of the exiled knight, don’t know whether the skin colour comes through in the pics. Quite a pale base with a few washes of druchi purple or whatever it’s called (why is everything by gw suddenly unpronounceable?!)
Infected by the White Death he is slowly becoming that which he has dedicated his life to destroy….

And in case anyone was wondering leaders get ‘big boy’ bases just to let everyone know who’s boss👍🏼
