'War in the North' rages on and the Forces of Titanspear muster to defend their territory from friend and foe alike.

 

So ive avoided posting until I had something to show but now we are halfway through Month one of our little groups escalation collect-and-paint I have managed to paint up the bulk of my first batch. Needing to build a core for further expansion I went with 20 freeguild guard in 2 units, a general to command them, and an Archmage as the start of the Aelven part of the force.

Month 1 - March 2018

Leaders
Freeguild General (100)
- Stately War Banner
Archmage (120)

Battleline
10 x Freeguild Guard (80)
10 x Freeguild Guard (80)

Total: 380 / 400

So far my painting has produced 7 Freeguild to a good level, 7 to a basic level, 6 base coat.  My general has gone walkabout so he need found and ive just put together my Archmage.

Here are the almost complete Freeguild Guard (with Tempest Lord Stormcast support), final highlights, shields and basing to go. Ive used Bretonnian models as they suit the theme of Tempest Eye and the Tempest Lords Stormcast (and i have them already).

My Archmage is now assembled ready for primer. Obviously its a conversion, based on the Mistweaver model with a different head (Sister of the Watch) and arms (Doomfire warlocks, Sisters of Silence and Island-of-Blood Archmage staff). Pretty happy with it, cant wait to paint!

Great looking blog @stato!

It's awesome to see another Tempest's Eye player (and even more awesome to see one with their models painted in the proper colours, which most of mine are not;)).

The Archmage is fantastic, what do you plan on converting your Freeguild general out of?

Thanks DM,  the general was going to be based on an Excelsior Warpriest, but i seem to have lost the model somewhere so it might not happen.  It was an idea i came up with entirely on my own, or at least i thought i had until i stumbled on something in my browser history (no not that) and remembered id seen this late last year.  Great blog and another Tempest and Dwarf player!

I've got a Warpriest at home (minus Gryph-hound) I've got no immediate plans for that you're welcome to if you can't find him.
