(Army Painters) 2014 - Warlord Games British - Finished!

[syrinx0]

Found the metal command figures to round out the plastic sets. Finally finished the first unit and a bit of the second.  Not sure what I was thinking last year when I was working on these but I missed parts of the webbing on way too many of the figures. Ah well, I have new lighting and glasses -  that should help.
I have 5 units of 20 infantry to finish with some additional command and individual Empress and WGF blisters.
What I finished:






Not that my best is all that, but given the number of figures I want to finish, I am trying not to obsess too much on the details.  Generally two shades of each color to give some depth and a wash with Army painter add some shade followed with a few coats of Dullcote. Given gencon in August and limited painting time, it should be interesting to see if I can keep up the pace.

[Dr. The Viking]

That looks quite OK I think. 

[Dr.Falkenhayn]

blimey,you've been busy 
keep em coming!

Ha! I am not that fast. I had a bit of a head start as I had mostly painted about half of two units worth of plastic.  This month I painted all the metal figures, cleaned up the mistakes and started basing.  Some of these figures have rather tall integral bases so my normal basing didn't look very good.  I remember reading of using liquid nails so I gave that a try and it worked out a lot better than PVA.

Nice, I've not seen many of those figures painted. I thought they would be all over the place.

My thoughts exactly.

[Groove51]

I like em. But 5 x 20? That sounds like a lot of work.

I failed my moral last year as the repetitive nature of a big unit can wear me down, hopefully I do better this time around. 
I might have to add a fantasy or pulp figure in between each unit for sanity.

Stunning. Thanks for sharing.

Unit Two finished.



Unit three is pretty close as well thanks to a vacation.

I should say finished except for the four kneeling guys without a red stripe on their pants I need to go back and paint. Oops.

This army is coming together nicely

Unit 3 has finished forming.




The army to date:


I decided to vary the basing a bit if only to help keep the units separate later.
