Halflings

Rapid progress on Lumpin Croop's unit! I'm really surprised by how fast I'm geting these guys done. And they deserve it as their success on the battlefield has been demonstrated time and again. They should be finished within a few days at the most.

After that its the duellists! Still tweaking the color scheme for these guys and doing some small conversion work.

The tournament is also coming up!

pics to come eventually

Update

Not much new, steady progress on the dwarf unit.

Picked up Ricco's Republican Guard and Lucrezia Belladonna for the DOW - Last thing to get will be Asarnil

new VC rules look nasty

more updates to come once I find some time to get stuff painted etc

also haven't had time to take any pics, still need to figure out the lighting

DOW Dwarf Unit - WIP

Working on my 20 Dwarves for the DOW. The picture quality sucks, I'm gonna have to work on getting better lighting. All of the Dwarves have been basecoated and most have some of the basic colors. I finished one test model with a great weapon and am working on getting the unit champion up to that level too. More pics to come as I get more finished.

Front of the unit. Champion is almost done. The test model is hiding in the back rank.

Test model. Turned out pretty good. Eventually I'll add some highlights but for now its all good.

Shot of the unit champ. Most of the unit will get blond beards - he'll be sporting a gray beard as per his veteran status.

News

Maneaters are completely finished, and the rest of the DOW are basecoated.

Next project are the cannons and the dwarf unit.

The DOW took on the Ogres again in a recent battle. I decided to switch things up a bit and try out Asarnil the Dragonlord. While he adds a ton of offense the points I had to cut out to use him trimmed my magic defense and shooting. I had to downgrade my lvl2 mage to lvl1 and 2 dispel scrolls. My mage lord had no items. Using Asarnil also takes up a rare slot so I was down to only 1 cannon as well. Every other unit was down to minimum numbers. WIthout posting a full battle report, lets just say the ogres quit on turn 3.

The first 1v1 victory for the hard fighting mercenaries of the Dragon Legion!

Dogs of War - reinforcements arrive

Adding 20 more Xbows to our forces to keep all those enemy hordes honest.
