Another Ancient Reforged!

Reforged Brother Thaen joins the fellowship of ancients amongst the Red Scholars!

I went all out on the dynamic shading and highlighting on this model. I think it gives it almost a comic book finish that I really like. I also got to apply the lessons I learned from painting the Forgefather with my improved NMM recipe. It was a lot of fun to do on a larger scale.

Without further ado:











Here he is amongst his brethren:


Finally, here is my next HPC vow- another ancient!


I'm going to try my damnedest to get this guy painted up by tomorrow evening for me and Nyle's Warhammer Brodown Weekend. Lets see if I can't get the edge in our forthcoming dread bash. We'll try to do our best to actually document some of our games between the inevitable excited shouting, rolling, and laughing.

Triad of The Ancients!

I finished my dreads!  Here are Ancient Ajax and Rovik The Martyr.  



You may notice I mixed up the weapons when painting, so now they have the opposite gun.  Ah well.  I just get so excited sometimes that I lose track of these details.  

Alternate weapons.



Next up is The Cullers of The Weak! My goal is to finish them before sunday June 1st for a Bros Before Saving Throws Bro-Down Show-Down Jason and I will have that week.  That's a lot to paint durring that time!  It is so hard to balance two jobs, a girlfriend, and familial obligations with being a colossal 40k nerd.  Worst case scenario, I fail and take down a Lamenters tact squad instead.  Here's hoping I wont have too!

The whole host so far:


Quake mortal and know fear!  The fury of The Triad of The Ancients cannot be abated!


They are comming for you Jason!

First 1,000 Completed!

I finished Ashur today, which means I hit the 1,000 point mark!  Here he is!




In addition I was flipping back through my posts and noticed an omission...I forgot to post the before picture of Squad Kalath!  Well here it is regardless...


Since I completed six units for my thousand point list I don't feel terrible about the mistake.  Still silly to take the picture and completely forget to post it though!  I haven't had time to write background due to an increased workload at work.  Maybe I'll get a bunch done in the future, but for now I only have time for painting.  On to the the 500 point chunk for the June games with twoplussave next!
