It was always going to happen really . . . . . .
After watching these videos and buying the rule books it was inevitable . . . . .
I was going to build a Regiment of Renown warband . . . . .
They are an amalgamation of these blokes . . . . .
from the 'Uniforms and Heraldry of the Empire' and these . . . . . . .
Which is a book I picked up for pennies while buying one of the army books on eBay.
I have to pick a winter painting project as the early nights play havoc with my partial colour blindness. Last year in was these blokes . . . .
This year because of this tutorial and something I have planned for next year I want to concentrate on making and painting terrain over the winter.
Forward you Sons of Ulric!
They really feel like a little diorama or book cover - you definitely get the regiment feel from them, and they don't even have paint on them!
ReplyDeleteI especially love how dynamic they feel. You can sense the movement in them.
Thanks. I do really want to go to town on these fellas and see if I can push my painting and free hand forward. Fingers crossed!
DeleteThat's a great band already, they will look superb when painted.
ReplyDeleteThanks. The lipped bases allow me to add more movement to the figures.
DeleteHopefully I will be up to the task with the paints.
Most impressive and beautiful job so far!
ReplyDeleteMany thanks, hopefully I can do the figures justice when it comes to the paints.
DeleteLook forward to seeing them all painted up and kicking some butt :-)
ReplyDeleteMate if your interested I might be organising a 'regiments of renown' tournament in Feb. It's simular to the event you showed on your blog. Win games = win beer!
DeleteInteresting choice. I like the look of your minis so far. Do they rank up well all dynamic and so forth?
ReplyDeleteTHe Regiments of Renown rule set is a skirmish rule set of Warhammer 8th edition rules. Due to that reason I do not have to worry about ranking up. Hence the lipped bases!
DeleteIt made the kit bashing a LOT easier.
