You're the Energizer Bunny of painting, where do you get the energy. The only way to describe these guys is heroic looking, well done.  :eusa_clap:

I wish I had the energy (and time) you describe, in my eyes progress is slow with to many projects still lingering (and more to come on the horizon)
But I am pretty satisfied with how these guys are looking, thanks!

Did it last weekend, as the rules suggest a shield he needed one!

The shield was about an hour of 2-3 (including drying times)

Your AoS army must be massive now, you never stop painting it seems.

When finished with my Stormcast I might shift my focus to the Devoted, that would be a nice combination :)

Nah it ain't massive yet... you can see my model count on the 2nd post in this thread, but I never stop painting (due to the backlog of empire models)  :happy:

Truly, your work is pure inspiration. Every model draws the eye and the quality is top-notch throughout, exceptional work! :eusa_clap: :eusa_clap:

Looking forward to seeing your soldiers of faith. The true underdog heroes who never give up hope or faith despite being surrounded by hell.  :::cheers:::

@Artoban's Ghost, just thought this might interest you since you like the Extremis chamber, artwork from their book:

Agree with the above 100%. It was sks's models that started my return to the hobby and I actually forget how I came across stegs work and blog (it may have been lustria online) and his battle reports that rejuvenated my interest and my joining Warhammer-Empire which has sealed the deal.  I have a long way to go but at least it's a start.
@baron thanks for the link ! Awesome artwork!

I certainly will! At the moment I have a Knight-Vexillor and 2 Retributors on the paint table. and thinking about if my Bright wizard is done (base contemplations) and if I should take some pictures yet or wait till I figured ut what to do with the base

I guess you're right its not a super huge army, but its seems huge. I'm stuck on my last 3 models have been for months now, and I've been distracted by the squadron of spitfire Mk V's I'm building.  :laugh:

Waiting impatiently for the dracoth's! It's funny I can be impatient with other people's time😺
Looking good! Are those crystals bits of series?

The Dracoth's aren't high on the priority list though.
The crystals are just sprue clip offs

All looks very nice!

I love how the color scheme looks with them. The green is a really nice color.
