bizzaroeric Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Hello! New member here. Long time player of warhammer fantasy now AoS. After some time playing other miniature games while the End Times dust settled I finally committed myself to begin a new army in AoS (I know, I dragged my feet a little bit). My hobby group is fast approaching our next grow league and since I am a fairly slow painter I wanted to get a head start! Here are my first 5 liberators. Let me know what you think or if you have any questions! I always try to push myself with every new army I paint and do feel this is my best work to date, so be gentle. I would also like to shout out this forum, while this is my first post I have been lurking on here for quite some time. Great community, huge inspiration (some of the painters and sculptors on here are incredible!) just a wonderful place to get in touch with the hobby. Thanks for looking. -Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stauderpower Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Love the color choices! This is one of my favorite looking stormcast paint schemes. Love the heads too, I used the exact same ones on some of my stormcasts I had a while ago, gives them an awesome look. Can't wait to see more!

bizzaroeric Posted February 3, 2017 Author Share Posted February 3, 2017 Thanks @Stauderpower that is a huge compliment! I was a little worried the heads would look to small but they turned out great. I'm hoping to finish a unit of 5 or a character every month or so (no guarantees) so hopefully I can post with some regularity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soulsmith Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 These are fantastic. Really characterful, and a great scheme with well executed difficult colours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nicromancer Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Looks awesome. The colour scheme is nice, love the shields. Not enough grime and dirt for me, but maybe I'm just strange like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lysandestolpe Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 The idea of the lines on the shields are spectacular. Well done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sehanine Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Lovely bases as well. How did you do them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n1ceguypaul Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Loving this different take on the stormcast. Making me very jealous (reaches for the paint stripper) hopefully get some shots of my first finished stormcasts very soon. Good job look forward to seeing more.

bizzaroeric Posted February 5, 2017 Author Share Posted February 5, 2017 Wow, thank you guys so much. I'm very happy you like them. @Sehanine the bases are the GW shattered realms bases with some added texture thanks to the texture paints stirland mud and agrellan earth. If you want the paint recipes let me know and I will pull it from my notes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Double Misfire Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 These guys are choice! The heads, (lamentably rarely seen) upgrade pack stuff and striking colourscheme totally transform the models. My jaw is on the floor, can't wait to see what you do with the rest of the force.
