Thanks for the feedback guys! I have noticed that he originally has that little suns on his armour painted in black and yellow, might add that to make him stand out a bit (if Warlord wants  :biggriin:)

Here is some very WIP empire stuff...

Ludwig Schwarzhelm


Hurricanum/ Luminark



I'd be glad fore some feedback on chariot - I have done its base and wheels in woodgrain, but the rest wouldn't look good IMHO in woodgrain. But now it seems that these two styles don't match...any help?  :-P

Black suns and yellow suns sound nice too. Should you put some more embellishments on the horse barding? Maybe just because its the GM? Not a lot, but a little?

Not sure what to make of Ludwig because its WIP. Perhaps a darker blue barding to contrast more with the grey of the horse?

Banner looks nice.

The chariot - I have no idea. Maybe we open this one up to the forum to assist?

I like your metalics a lot. They look really realistic and cool. :smile2:

@Warlord I'l think about that and look for some help. Hope to finish something soon.

@Xatgrodox86 . It is just classic citadel paints - Leadbelcher, Nuln oil Wash and some Chainmail highlights, nothing special, but thanks  :icon_biggrin:

Here is some progress on space wolves...
first interceptor



Also, some really bad pics from 7th ed. 5000 pts game (we ended in the half of 4th turn  :eusa_wall:)

Two stanks and all that artillery, and still the Dwarf doesn't move...

Nice progress with painting. Really crisp colours.

Thanks Zygmund! The one in the middle is actually a War Altar - sadly I don't have the model for it  ::heretic::

Yeah, apart from Gyros and Miners, he barely moved... :unsure:

Sorry bout that! Just an exclamation of sheer shock and awe that used to get said around here when I was growing up. That is utterly magnificent.

Thanks for the feedback as always Artobans Ghost! I'd like to hear some constructive critiqu, if possible. Not only regarding the paintjob itself, but maybe choice of colour, because that is what I struggle with mostly... :-)

Some work done on Hurricanum/ Luminark. I went with white instead of black, to better suit both Heaven/ Light schools on Magic. I feel like i could make the chassis and wheels look like woodgrain painted over with white, but I'd love to hear some feedback on overall look. The upper parts - hurricanum/luminark "device" are still early WIP. Also not sure if I should keep the barding on horses clean, or add some insignia?
It is not glued together yet, hence some of the parts are a little wobly. Thanks for help and feedback in advance!  :smile2:

The blazing sun GM looks great. Can’t wait to see a whole unit like that!

Regarding the wizard wagon, the white looks good. I think your suggestion about white wheels / chassis is a good one - i think without that the wheels are a bit too much extra colour.
The rest looks good, including the barding. I don’t think it needs any insignias at this stage. Candles and internal details look good too!

Ludwig looks fantastic. Very very nice!

That lighting on the Hurricanum/Luminark looks awesome. How did you achieved that? All of your models look exceptionally well. :blush:

Thanks! Oh - I'm not even which colours I have used. Might have been some mix of enchanted blue a and the fang for the middle part and probably gretchin green with some blue for the outer parts. Then I kinda drybrushed both parts togehter to get sorta blend. And than hand picked some highlights. :Ohmy:

Looks great, it's postings like this that keep me motivation to paint. On the subject of dwarf gunlines or static dwarves...I play dwarves and it usually confused new opponents when I used a mobile army. Apparently being involved in more than half of the game sequences is still foreign to most dwarf player.
I may disagree with what you say but I respect your right to be punished for it.

Thanks Brother Sutek! Well, I know that it might be sorta hard to play offensive dwarfs, If I'd play them, I'd dug myself in the corner of the battlefield and never go even a feet forward  :-P But playing empire against dwarf, with worse shooters and artilery, no ambushers and flyers, not too many chances in magic, there is only way to go left....march forward!  ::heretic::

But don't get me wrong - I love playing against dwarfs. Only it gets a bit repetive after a while  :icon_biggrin:

Somehow missed on the luminarch. Beautiful colours. Reminds me of a quaint German village all wrapped in one package.
That snake is awesome. I had the feallling the zombicide were smaller figures. All look great!

Thanks @Artobans Ghost! I wonder  that so many people like the colours, I don't remember some special procedure to achieve that :engel:
Zombicide models seem to be even taller than human models in Warhamer (I tried to put them next to imperial guard model). But they have more realistic proportions and they are more slender...I was a bit disappointed by the level of detail, I expected a bit more from CMoN...

Here are more of the heroes...

He lives! Almost two months from my latest post. Week ago I have finished my master thesis, so I finally had some time to paint minis...
