More Spearmen

Sorry for the lack of updates recently, general business prevented me from getting much painting time. But after a brake of two weeks I managed to finish some more spear men. This is the last batch before i finish the command group and then the unit is finished.




Fortunately after a previous few weeks of difficulty the camera was working pretty well today, and I got reasonably good pictures of all the models. Note the last picture is actually a different model to the previous one. As always, click for a bigger view and C and C warmly welcomed.

High Elf Spearmen

Finished another rank of spear men today. I changed the way I usually paint them incorporating Dim's advice and  think it looks a lot better so thanks to you Dims.


Unfortunately the camera refused to focus once again so most of the photos I took had to be deleted.
I also made this plinth up during the week, I'll be using it for a project I'm about to start working on for four years in the hobby.
And here's a picture of all ten of the spear men done. As always comments and criticism is welcome and click on the photos for a better view.

High Elf Spearmen

Haven't done much since last post because of a busy schedule, but did start work on these spear men. The purple cloth is done and so is the gold and silver. Click on pictures for a better view and comments and criticism is welcome as always.

With the fourth anniversary of when I started the hobby coming up I thought I would go all out on a new miniature to celebrate. At the moment it has just been built and mould lines removed.

Finished War Walker and High Elves

So as I said last time the reason for a severe lack of posts was among a number of things working on too many projects at once. But through a great length of time mostly I managed to get the War Walker finished. I did have more pictures of it but the camera after running out of battery decided to misbehave even more so I'm left with 2. Click on pictures for a larger image and comments and criticism welcome as normal.



I usually run in a pair as shown because at 50 points each scout, a scatter laser and a shruiken cannon that's a lot of very manoeuvrable firepower at a very reasonable price tag. Even though they are only toughness 10 in the admittedly few games I have played with them they have survived quite well whilst always making up at least double their points back.

One of the other projects I've been working on is my high elf spear men. Even though they were already painted I've basically repainted them as before they looked quite boring and without any technical skill. I've kept to the same colour scheme and because my skills have improved it still takes me the same amount of time to paint them even though I'm doing three times as much.


I did have pictures of all five but once again the camera had the final say and so only these two will be posted in the meantime.

War Walker W.I.P.

First, sorry for the lack of updates lately, a combination of being busy, not inspired and too many little projects on the go at one time has left me very little to show. But here is a War Walker I've been working on, all it needs is some final details and clean up.


As always click for larger images and C&C very welcome.

Farseer

Did a bit more work on the farseer, even though I had designated it as finished. Anyway highlighted the gold once more and since I hadn't put up alot of pictures for it I thought I would do it now. The pictures can be clicked on to get a larger image.

Painted Dwarf Army For Sale


After looking through my stuff the other day I noticed an army I had won in a raffle that was so covered in dust that when I touched it my finger turned grey. Now to me this means that I will never use it and I don't want it, it's just taking up space. So I decided to sell it, so here it is. I'm putting it up here before I list it on eBay so if you're interested email me at w.hpaintingstudios@gmail.com I'm asking for only $40 and a $20 postage and handling to anywhere in the world, pick up is also an option if you live close by.

This army was fully painted when I won it [still is] so it was not painted by me but if you're looking for a comparison it's about the equivalent of "Quick and Dirty." It includes the following:
  • Dwarf Lord
  • Dwarf Daemon Slayer
  • 12 Dwarf Warriors, full command
  • 10 Dwarf Thunders, full command
  • 8 Dwarf Miners, full command
  • 1 cannon and three crew.
 This army has seen use in the past on the gaming table so it is not in mint condition as a two axeheads have been re-glued but otherwise everything is in very good condition. Here are the pictures.
