Long time no update (yet again)...

My latest 65pts
A few weeks back me and my friends jumped at the opportunity to play WM/H with some of Swedens best players in a cup in our local store.

Needless to say, my first game against Legion and Saeryn was ... quite an embarrassement. But I didn't feel so annoyed or irritated as I usually do when I lose. Partly because I have never played against Legion before, and my opponent played one of the best Warlocks in the whole game and is a Protectorate-player.

Anyway, we needed three fully painted 50p lists with reinforcements so I had to work pretty fast to paint up the models needed.

Thought I should share a few pictures of my freshly painted miniatures!
I decided to put down enough work on Eiryss2 to feel really pleased with her, and her cloak is painted with six layers of different greens and a few thinned out washes.

It turned out just as I wanted.

Regarding her base, I have decided to put all of my mercs on cobblestone bases made from greenstuff.

Since I didn't want to bring my favourite 'Casters (for some stupid reason...) I decided on Thyra, Severius2 and Feora2.
I'm not a huge fan of Severius standing on his priests' back so I removed them and made a new base from cork, slates and sand.
My second Reckoner needed a more dynamic pose, so I gave him a new base as well and pulled one leg back and bent one arm a little more outwards.

Flaming daughters and salivating fire-robot

Almost got my Fire of Salvation and Daughters of the Flame (I just want to type "Emperor" instead of "Flame" for some reason...).
They are quite funny to paint actually, it goes fairly fast, I have now finished the red and have only the faces, the metals and a few touch-ups before they are ready.
Next project will be my Vessel of Judgement, though I should really finish my Knights Errant but they are so daunting to paint (especially after having painted one full unit + ua and Seneschal of Errants Exemplars, AND a unit of KE + Seneschal already).

Though I must say, I am quite pleased with the rate at which I'm getting done with my Menites.
When I'm done with the Daughters I will have TFG + UA, Zealots + UA, Errants + UA, KE, Daughters, Rhoven and friends, and then I haven't even mentioned my solos, jacks and casters! :)

Meaning I have only the KE's on my shelf to finish, and one Crusader, the Vessel, a Repenter and a few solo's to go before all of
it's painted.

Good times, good times.

(Then I have to finish my Merc's and the Skorne....)


----------------------------------------------------

The 2012 painting pledge is actually doing wonders for my lazy painting-nerve, I have never finished this many models in such a short time before, and actually enjoyed it, even though I paint "under preassure".

With the rate I'm finishing up models at the moment, I will be out of miniatures to paint by the end of the year, what a disaster!

;)

On another sidenote, by thursday this week, my gaming group will actually invite a more experienced player to join us for some thursday action funsies.

I suspect we will get our asses kicked properly, but I'm still looking forward to it! :)
