Topic: Grand army of the free city of Altdorf

[Noigrim8]

Hi all, with the coming of The Old World I've decided to start an imperial army in the glorious livery of the city of Altdorf. The first models will be a reiklander warband painted last year:

Those are looking awesome, and good choice on having yellow feathers, makes the figures look more striking, congrats!

[Zygmund]

Nice colour choices. Also super nice that you name your troopers!

Welcome!

Love the style and the composition is solid. How many spearmen are you going for?

Just finished my first spearmen unit: the glorious Hoch und Burgmeister regiment:

was just about to say that too!

Thanks  !

To paint the lion first I drew the interior lines that marked the shape of the body, arms, tail. Then I painted the outline and filled it up, the finishing touch were the strands of hair that hang from the body. I used a google heraldic image as reference, for my halberdier unit I want to do a griffon!

More troops for the Emperor, this time an harquebusier unit. It's nice to see again on the field these nostalgic Perry sculpts form the early 2000s, the first wargaming models I ever had!
