Theatralics Dwarf Army: Groupshots

[Ninja]

Man you are rocking this thread. I love dwarves and you are doing some amazing work here in terms of really giving them a individualized feel.

Thank you so much, this means a lot! One of my biggest quarrels with Dwarves in the past was, that they started to look outdatet and soulless ( My All Plastic army anyways), every other Army had cool Toys and great Sculpts, but our Warriors looked bland. Than I started to see all this Vintage Armies in the Brewery and fell in Love. My aim is to mix OOPs with current models to get some Theme and Variation in, Dwarves should be more than Row after Row off identical Looking Plasticminis, don`t get me wrong, I like Plastics but not for the whole Army.

Dwarves have so much Character and a rich Background, if I manage to catch some of that in this Army, I did a good Job!

Very cool.
I like the statue idea.
Keep the photos coming.

In my opinion the dwarves of Avatars of War could be dangerous for my purse...

I really dig this thread. Even though I'm not too hot for dwarves these are just spot on! Great paintjob, great selection of models and those statues really rule. Two thumbs up.

Oh, and don't worry about posting work in progress. I find that very fascinating as it helps me remember that other people really have to work for their results as well.

Nice idea with the ratnik dwarves and the statues - they're going to get a bit tired lugging that big old thing after the rest of the unit though aren't they? 

Looking forward to seeing them painted up 

[Theatralic]

Thank you all   , glad that you liked it , it really feels good to know people like whats happening in here.

@ Thansants, nothing a strong Dwarf Back can`t take

Here is a birthday Present my girlfriend got me ( I had back in August but never got around to go to Ikea, but now its done). My own dedicated Hobbyarea. No half hour of Preparations anymore, no Paints on my Work/PC Desk anymore, no putting everything away each night. I am SO Happy, this should really help me to keep my schedule and get some Painting in every Night, more room than I ever had to work on my stuff, so I have no excuses anymore.

Now lets see how long this will stay so clean....

Looks like a great work space...now put it to work!

Good luck mate...you need to pace yourself and think of the long game...just the LPL around here...the first few weeks are easy...but by week 5-6-7 things get tuff!

Cheers,

Blue

Thanks Mate I will keep that in mind for sure !

And I did like you said and put my new corner to work  , sadly the Pics swallowed a lot of the contrast, I will probably take new ones . Any Feedback is welcome 

[thebinmann]

That's a beautiful start!

[Mason]

Lovely!
 

Good luck with the rest of the mountain!

Thank you Guys

This is kind of an angry Update, we all know this I suppose, you try out new Things and they kinda suck

I started on my cannon today and I want to improve my Blending and skin skills, but as for now I am not that happy, but I know also It won`t happen on one mini, it takes practice, still its unnerving.






The Result.



The actual mini looks even uncleaner in realife *grr*

But I don`t want to continue on that skin for now, maybe I revisit it later on.

Great army, It has a very clear look, I love them.
This huge collection of classical dwarven miniatures has to be a pleasure for paint.

Congratulations!

[Theatralic]

Thanks Rigel, yes they are a pleasure, but I wouldn`t call that collection huge, I would kill for welfs collection or when I think of some of the armies I have seen in The Brewery I could cry. But I am young, I have Time to get my little fingers on more of them 

[Theatralic]

Another paintless WIP shot, but its an important one: The Project 500 has started and I am allready feeling the pressure. Some people are pumping out mini after mini and I haven`t even started. For my first 500 Points I am going for Warriors and a Runelord.




Deadline is December 16th, wish me luck and bombard me if I start to slack, I will try to post WIPs in between.

Cheers T
