Show us your painted army - in one single photo.
« on: January 13, 2012, 08:29:30 AM »
I thought it would be interesting to have an overview of the armies in single photos and gathered in one place. So take a photo of your painted models ranked in whatever formation you wish and post it here. But try to limit yourself to one photo.

The exception to this advice is :

If you have more armies in different themes or colors or from different counties or states, you can split your army in those tags and take separate single army pics.

If your army is too big to take a single shot ( I know some of you have this honor ), but can't be divided into tags - then choose the best painted or the elite or the most characteristic troops and make a photo of those as the most representative force of your army.

Also, it  would be a good addition to post the titles or names of the army if you have any ( points maybe?)  or which province the army belongs to.

Later on, when you add more troops to the army, you can either replace your original photo with the new one or post a fresh photo.

Open to debate is whether we should post here also our non-Empire armies.

Share your thoughts and suggestions and I will correct this initial post accordingly.

And post pics. ( single shots only :wink:)

Below your post please insert the link to your painting blog, so members can have a closer look to your army.

One of the big wigs... once told them "If a household doesn't have an income of $70,000, we don't consider them a GW target customer."

I think this is a nice idea! It's great to see which armies each one has, since they are always easily forgotten to pages slidden to history. Too bad I don't have an "army" of painted models yet to speak of, but I'll be posting soon as I'll have my Wissenburg forces ready.

Keep 'em coming  :::cheers:::
The reason for my uniform being a slightly different color to yours is never explained.

The picture is more than 5 years old and (thankfully) not very detailed. The collection has grown since, but the new additions are mostly unpainted. I hope that 8th edition Empire release won't be as disappointing as 7th edition release was.

Please people, you're embarassing yourselves - feast your eyes on this!



Yes, I too am amazed that I managed to fit it all into one shot. Humble beginnings, aye?

Actually back in the 4ed there was a rule  - 5 models is a unit + a general = an army. So a good start it is. :wink:

as soon as I saw the title I was laughing at the impossibility of it ever happening, I can't even get my army all in one room.  Here is a picture I have posted before, it represents about 4/5ths of my cavalry that is painted. I have about another 400 or 500 unpainted.  steveb

Wow.  Very impressive to see the assembled hosts.   :happy:

Wish I had a table to put it on, but for now my troops reside in their cases and go to other places for games.  But here's what it looks like in my spare room.  A few projects are still "under construction" - War Altar, I'm looking at you - but by and large things are coming along smoothly.  It's certainly more models than I expect to put on the table in an average game...so why can't I stop picking up Empire units...?
