Holy cow, those look great! :icon_eek:

About the Free Company box, I remember when I first bought the box on a whim and joyously discovered the treasure trove of bits.  :-D

Great work on the spears, Sharkbelly.  Though maybe now you should work work some tribal troops who wear large skull masks,  certainly would be unique.  :-P

@Gankom,  Haha, thanks for the cheer. Expect to see more soon, I'm working on a project to help inspire the AoS thread. :wink:

I'm a huge sucker for the Lockhir Fellheart model, and his incredible Cthulhu mask. Stunning work. :ph34r:

Thank you very much! I really like how they all turned out.

Last night I finished up the Innkeeper and his daughter for the Old Sea Dog tavern.

Those Bloodsail Island models are great! Unfortunately, they came out after I made my own ogre pirate army...

Very nice! :biggriin:

Just by looking at his daughter I can imagine the "mysterious disappearances" of many a drunken sailor. Surely her father has no clue of what unfornate fate befell them. :wink:

That's right. Now, up next is my small Lothern Sea Guard army:

Sea Helm on Skycutter
Mage w/ annulian crystal
18 Lothern Sea Guard
Bolt Thrower
Merwyrm

All I had time for was this guy, the mage's familiar:




I went with a different color on the base than my previous models, and I'm thinking about redoing the others in the same color. It's an acrylic paint from the craft store that is a lot cheaper than model paints.

Cool seagull (no pun intended). Where's this model from? :smile2:

It's an extra bit from the Lothern Skycutter sprue.

I added some sharks. First, I bought a Shark TOOB at the toy store.



Then, I made up some bases for them.





Finally, I've started painting up sharks based on pictures I find online.

These are very cool. What sort of warscroll can be applied to these guys?

Not sure... I plan to use them more for D&D than Age of Sigmar.

I ordered one of Frontline Gaming's ocean mats today. They're a little pricey, but are on sale right now. Should be perfect for ship battles.

This army is really nice and has a cool motive. I'd love to see some batreps with it.

Hopefully some time soon! I don't have a group to play with at the moment...

In the meantime, lots of painting. Here is the base for the Merwyrm so far.

I finally finished up the Merwyrm. I made both a land base and a sea base for it.

Whoa, great work on the Merwyrm. I always loved the big beasties from FW. Shame they've ditched their WFB range, long before the AoS.

At least with Age of Sigmar it's a lot easier to include some of these great beasties in your army.

I've been working on a pirate themed Empire army for YEARS now. I've had to 'reshuffle' it a lot in recent years to get the 'classical' pirate look. NONE of the models wear armour [except for the militia heads which have helmets or the militia 'armoured' arm that came with that kit]. I've nearly finished it. Once I add a couple of ogre's it'll be FINALLY ready

Sounds great! I'd love to see some pictures of it. After the elves, I have some dwarves to work on.
