I\'ve got this thread up in a couple of other forums, but I thought I\'d post it here as well, in hopes of ruthless helpful painting criticisms, my DoW army is on hold, and I may paint it up and sell on a few following whenever I get a finished 2000 points of chaos. And do a completely specific thread for helping me achieve that.
My \'Deadline\' is the end of august, when I\'ll be attending my first tournament, where I expect to get thoroughly spanked, so I figure if my stuff doesn\'t look bad that\'ll soften the blow
Right; as for the army itself, basically apart from the characters I\'m not going for crazy detail on anything, but what I do want is a really coherent army with obvious homogeneity between every unit within it, also if anyone feels that any piece is below the standard of the rest please shout out, and let me know why, and I\'ll try and go back and sort that out a little, enough chitchat, on with the pictures:
(Nothing is completely finished, there\'s at least the fine details missing of everything)
Dogs:
Knights:
Lord on Demonic Mount (Converted this guy, love the model, but I never use his mount, so I doubt he\'ll get included which is a shame, I may try and put him on a warshrine if I can):
Sigvald - love the model, it\'s going on a disc as an exalted:
Marauder Horsemen 2nd unit - riders on their way
Marauder Horsemen 1st unit
Chosen - looking to have a unit with every model at least having a small conversion:
1 Sorc on foot - nurgle guy:
Warriors - these were my first unit for the army, so the standard isn\'t great, still need to do details.
Horsemen so far:
(dreading doing the layering on these, as it\'s a technique I find very perplexing :s)
Converted chosen chappy:
Sigvald from behind
Also I made this as a shield for him, as he\'s going to be my dude on a disc, I\'d like opinions on whether people think it would look better with a circular shield and the point bits behind it, rather than moulded to and coming from it?
(Any tips on freehand would be really appreciated, it\'s something I\'ve barely ever done before, and I find it really difficult :S)
and 2nd unit of dogs - even though they\'re throwaway units I don\'t like the seal lines so I greenstuffed their noses
(These guys are now undercoated, basecoated and skin is nearly finished, same with bases
All of your comments + criticisms welcome, I\'d like this army to really look as good as possible and be something I can be plenty proud of, no matter how brutal your thoughts, they\'re always helpful
