Hi there!
Those two units are really looking cool.
Like them very much!


Cheers

Thanks!

Latest update, painted these cold one Knights. The One on the left is a high elf dragon prince previously painted for a high elf army. The owner wanted his dark elf cold ones to match
So they could be used in a combined Khaine end times list.
Apologies for harshness of the light, it had to be taken indoors under a desk lamp.

Regards

Jim

Paul's Ostland army grew by the addition of a unit of infantry with sword and shield

Ah, that box was my first ever real regiment kit. I had a few of those boxes of 6 to 8 mostly monopose plastic guys before this, but the Empire state-trooper regiment was the real deal. Had to get my father to glue them together for me (much to his chagrin - I still remember his swearing at the fiddly bits).

I still have a couple kicking around.

The paint job is really nice. It's got a fine muted vibe to it, with the red complimenting that. Good stuff!

WONDERFUL STUFF! Even in his fussy photo, I love what you did with Grom.

Thanks chaps!

Only 4 assorted GW demons today, still working on camera settings etc, but it's difficult to get decent photos with only the desk lamp

The demon Guys look SPLENDID. I really like the Fellow with the pink hands. VERY WELL DONE!
I think you might have better results with the focus if you move the minis off your painting table. The camera is probably unable to pick a focal point with all the activity on the board.

I'm going to take your advise when  I can DeafNala, I think you are right, these wouldn't focus properly either, but I
couldn't use daylight outside today as the weather was atrocious
Anyway, dark elf executioners but painted in a high elf colour scheme to fit into a khaine end times army

Today some dark riders, again painted to join a khaine combined army. Still dreadful weather
So it's one of my blurry indoor shots.

Cheers DN!

To reinforce Paul's empire force he had me paint 3 old GW plastic foot wizards.
Metal wizard, death mage and grey mage respectively. They are stock except for the Middle guy who's
had a skull and scroll added to his staff.

Regards

Jim
