Dwarf spearman #14

Actually a halberdier.

Dwarf spearman #13

A MM15 Marauder Clansman:

Dwarf spearman #12

Citadel again, this time from the Norse Dwarfs range. Note that I have removed the boss on his left hand to spare a shield (that was before I discover the medieval shields sold by Wargames Foundry).

Dwarf spearman #11

Now the slayers are done, it's time to complete my second unit of dwarf warriors. A Citadel miniature from the Imperial Dwarfs range. Definitely not my best painting job, I'll hide it in the rear ranks :p

Slayer #11

It's been a while since I've posted something here. Blame the holidays, a painful removal, and the total loss of internet for a few weeks... Anyway, I'm back with a few dwarfs. The first one is meant to replace Throbin Dead Eye and complete my unit of troll slayers.


I've also tried to rework the skintone of my slayers. I won't blame you if you can't see any difference :)

 

In the next weeks, I'll try to finish my spearmen unit.

1121 points

Family photo of my Citadel slayers. Obviously, the standard bearer is not everyone's cup of tea and I may decide in the future to replace him by an "ordinary" slayer. I'll see if I can grab the old dragon slayer on eBay...

Anyway, I will count them as Giant Slayers and give them light armours and double-handed weapons:

So 10 times 8 +2 + 2 makes 120 points: I am now the proud owner of a 1121 pt dwarf army :)

Slayers #7 to #10

Last batch of slayers, nothing much to write except that for the last guy, I've replaced the original weapons by an axe and a dagger from the Hasslefree dwarf weapons set.


And now, you know what I did from my evenings the last two months. What a life :p

Throbin Dead Eye, slayer #6 and standard bearer

This is the second time I paint a Throbin Dead Eye miniature, anb hopefully the last one :) I'm not a big fan of this sculpture, but it was the only mini I had that I could convert into a standard bearer slayer.

As you can see, I have simply replaced the axe by a flag from a prepainted Confrontation miniature and I've tried to clean as much as possible the layer of paint to get a smooth surface before undercoating the whole mini in white.

And now the painting. With my "kind of" crusade army theme, all my standard bearers have a black cross as emblem:

So, keeping this theme in mind, I've tried to find something suitable for a bunch of orange hair mad killers with suicidal tendencies. And finally, it's just a black cross on a white background with "trollslayer" written in the middle...

The red gems are here as a reminder of the dead eye of Throbin, as you can see below:

Hmmm... should have spent more time on the shadowing, particularly in the back :(
