Title: Grand army of the free city of Altdorf
Post by: Noigrim8 on January 29, 2024, 02:15:58 PM: 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:

Post by: Noigrim8 on April 15, 2024, 07:53:54 PM: Thanks :happy:!

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!

Post by: Noigrim8 on April 16, 2024, 09:29:01 PM: 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!
