Hi Everyone
Firstly I would just like to say I am a long time watcher first time poster so I hope its all ok
A bit of Background.
I have played Warhammer since the age of 12, back then i used to think that slapping on a bit of colour constituted painting. I collected Dwarfs and had loads, then took some time out from the hobby to go to Uni and in order to fund my student lifestyle i sold all my figures
then recently a friend and I were remenicing about the "good old days", to cut a long story short we decided to start Warhammer up again. After several weeks of flitting through various army books I decided to go for Empire. And fancied being a little different so, after looking at several posts on this site i decided to paint and theme my army using Ostland as my focus.
I have a been collecting for 3 months so far and have a few units, I hope to upload photos as I get each one finished. Below is a list of models i have so far aquired.
- 50 Halberdiers
50 Swordsmen
40 greatswords
3 Great Cannons
1 Hellblaster Volleygun
1 Mortar
1 Hellstorm rocket battery
9 Knights
3 Warrior priests
1 Captain of the empire (BSB)
16 Archers
20 crossbowmen
8 wizards (one from each college)
Also eventually i want to convert a steam tank
I have also been thinking of various terrain pieces to make. I wanted to go for something that wasnt shop bought but was home made, that way I could stamp my personality onto it. I hope to upload photos of each piece as and when i complete it, below is a list of terrain I will be making.
- 4 Buildings
1 Inn
1 Church and accompanying graveyard
6 forests
2 hills
1 encampment
Various walls and fences
A frozen lake
6 frozen rivers with fords and a 12" wide bridge
anymore I can think of as I go along
I warn you now this maybe slow as, while i have a fair few models painted I am terribly slow at basing them so as it stands at the moment only 10% are based but i have this week off so i hope to change that and get some photos up asap.
Any comments and critique is welcome.
