Ongoing Dwarf/Human Army Thread...
« on: 03 August 2011, 03:55:32 PM »
So I thought I would start a thread displaying some of my ongoing work on painting up a joint Human and Dwarf Army...this will include many of WKs figures as well as the classic Marauder Dwarfs and GW Empire figures...many of which you saw in the Last LPL.

Anyway...here is my latest effort...a small group of Marauder Dwarf Handgunners that I painted up for the July contest over at Bugman's Brewery.



For WIP shots of this group see my blog...the link is down in my signature.

Watch this space for updates!

Cheers,

Blue

Blue,
These are right up there with your Chaos Stunties!
Unbelievable use of colour, you always manage to pull off the really bright schemes without it looking like a comic.
Amazing work, will be keeping an eye on this thread.

Excellent, excellent work.  I've been looking at your blog and have to say that both your standard of painting and choice of subjects have really impressed me.  I really look forward to watching your project grow over time.

EXCELLENT choice of colors...vibrant colors are the way to go with Renaissance garb. As always VERY WELL DONE!

I worked up a couple of members of the Marauder Empire Command set for the monthly painting contest over on Warhammer-Empire.

Here they are...the other 2 will be along shortly... ::)



Cheers,

Great work Blue, as always. I am really liking the addition of the white to your colour scheme. It has improved your minis 10 fold (if that was even possible).

Now I have to laugh at you....because....if wasn't for painting competions on the various forums, you visit, I am not sure you would paint anything.....ok....maybe that's not true, but it sounds funny (well at least in my head).

Keep up the great work Blue. I would really like to see a group shot of ALL your minis.

BEAUTIFULLY WELL DONE! I love the color scheme particularly the way the white turned out. The banner is TERRIFIC.
