Ostland Charging Bulls NEW:- swordsmen 26th july
« on: April 21, 2011, 05:56:03 PM »
Just thought i'd post up some piccies of a commission i've just finished for a club mate. GW Empire knights painted in Ostland colours.

He's magnetised the arms of the command figures so that they can have full command or be replaced with lances on an individual basis. The headgear has also been converted to have the bulls head of ostland. All the conversion work is his (general squinty on this and other forums), only the painting is mine.





regards

Red, white and black... you should add yellow in there too, to get all the problem colours into one paint scheme. =) Great job!

Hey now! These are great, as was said before the contrast between the black/grey and white is awesome. What a great unit, love those bases as well.


Cheers

I Like those a lot. Looks like a very striking unit on the battlefield. Also well though out with the magnets. I defenitly have to look more into using those.

thanks for sharing

hi chaps,

The guy i'm painting them for didn't like the red hats and wanted all the swordsmen to have bull shields, so here they are in their final form..
