I really wanted to complete this regiment before the end of this year. As I said before, the 8 last models painted these last two weeks were meant for the rear rank, so, even if the painting is not perfect, it is barely visible :)
Enough talking, pictures! On the front rank, the Guildmasters, the shield bearers and their fiercest bodyguard. Behind them, a bunch of Marauder Miniatures (mainly from the citizen MM62 range) and a last rank of Citadel Fighters/Dogs of War designed by Aly and Trish Morrison.
And now the army points: my militiamen are equipped with spears and light armour, plus a musician and a standard bearer, which gives a total of 272 points. Less than 10% of the whole army... Sigh.
Lovely!
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot :)
DeleteThis defies words. It is simply beautiful. Looking forward to the remaining 90% ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks. Please, don't mention the unpainted 90% :)
DeleteThey look like a painting :) The composition is superb - it looks like a group of men (beings?) stood together rather than four ranks of miniatures. 272 points? Rome wasn't built in a day, as they say. Just imagine how beautiful the entire army will look especially next to the Dwarves.
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot. Yes, I hope the entire army will be at that level. We'll see.
DeleteFantastic work! Keep them coming ;-)
ReplyDeleteone model after the other... 2 years at least
DeleteLa classe à Dallas mec. Trop bon.
ReplyDeleteArf. merci !
DeleteVery nice indeed!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteAbsolutely stunning!
ReplyDeleteThanks Kym
DeleteWonderful looking unit, and a great use of many old miniatures, including merchant miniatures. Really lovely painting. I like the use of the Halfling pages. The positioning of the standard bearer in the second rank really allows a better visual effect for the front rank.
ReplyDeleteA Guildmaster regiment is a good idea, I might borrow it for my Marienburg army (based on the Empire army list).
Feel free to borrow. I'll check the result on your blog ;)
DeleteC'est tout simplement magnifique, le plein de détails et de couleurs. C'est vraiment un travail de titan. Mille bravos!!
ReplyDeleteMerci. La milice rend bien, mais ça s'est fait presque par hasard.
DeletePar comparaison, la Garde a été peinte sans beaucoup plus d'idées a priori, et le résultat est moins péchu. Comme quoi, on ne maîtrise pas toujours ce que deviennent les régiments.
Autant de caractère concentré en une seule unité, c'est génial, comme si chaque figurine racontait sa propre histoire, superbe !
ReplyDeleteMerci. Elles sont bien ces figos, surtout quand on arrive à mélanger des civils parmi les brutes habituelles :p
DeleteMazette ! C'est une belle vision que voila ! Tu es quand même sacrément tenace ! Bravo !
ReplyDeletePouah. Dire qu'il va falloir écraser tout ça sous mes marteaux nains. Quel gâchis :)
DeleteIls vont quand même faire chouettes dans mes étagères à partir de janvier.
DeleteLe coffre de la clio est plein :p va falloir attendre... ou faire le déplacement pour admirer TON armée dans MA vitrine.
DeleteA simply superb unit. The attention to detail and character of the miniatures is fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThanks, I appreciate.
DeleteAbsolutely amazing!!!
ReplyDeleteLovely stuff!
ReplyDeleteI've enjoyed watching this unit come together this year. Keep up the beautiful work in 2018!
ReplyDeleteJeff
Thanks. I'll do my possible for 2018.
DeleteThis is just so incredible and quite honestly at the pinnacle of our hobby. As always, i’m In awe.
ReplyDeleteWow, thanks. But don't say that, I have other regiments to paint :p
DeleteThey look stunning! Definitely a labour of love. Plua its great to see that old army list entry. Was that from 3rd edition? I now need to go and have a rake through my old books! Loving the retro!
ReplyDeleteJust wow.
ReplyDeleteThese are amazing!
ReplyDeleteThanks, both of you :)
