Greetings, Enlightened Ones. Allow me to show the latest progress for my Ymetrica army... It's not much, sadly, but I had a Bachelor thesis to write, and those Dawnriders do take a while.

Good luck on your bachelor's!

 

Don't let the Dawnriders steal your time, or rather not stealing your energy ;)!

I play Iliatha, but to be honest, I don't know how this army works. I lost every game so far 😂

Really? You seem to have a very solid core with 20 Wardens and 20 Sentinels.

Are Eltharion and the Lord Regent your only heroes? What about a Cathallar, Teclis or the twins? 

And what are you playing against?

I have a Cathalar Proxy from Raging Heroes and think about buying the twins as they fit nicely to an Iliatha force.

My problem is that I'm used to charge with highly mobile deadly flying sea creatures, deepstrike and kill fast (just look at my profile pic 😄). All this is not possible with this army. My horses are dead before they did any damage. The bowmen are great to snipe enemy heroes but that's it and Spear phalanx just waits to get charged 🤷

Pictures

Don't know how to tag at this forum, but I really like it and I love the spears!

 

In October 2020 I got 5 Dawnriders from gw since the banner on the starter set broke when I cut it from the sprue(spruce?). To be fair, I wasn't done with much at that point, but it was first this weekend that I got the energy to start working on them. I know there are more of y'all that still have models to paint, but you might have burned yourself out on the Lumineth and especially have no desire to do the Dawnriders!?

 

I cheated and made the most of the model in contrast wildwood color. Then I spent more time in layering the white instead of doing my best to do the trim and then clean up the white. This helped me a lot and would suggest that. I know he made the suggestion with iron hands steel? And skeleton horde contrast, but I felt that it was as awful as the normal book suggestion....

 

Anyways, here is a picture of the results. Please ignore dust that the camera was good to point out on the model.

I've been feeling the yearning recently to go back to the Lumineth models I set aside earlier in the year and try to finish up the units I have primed. 

They can certainly be taxing to paint sometimes, but they are such fantastic models, and they look so good once done (as this thread so beautifully demonstrates.)

Really glad to see someone paint these up in Illiatha scheme. That’s definitely what I plan on doing if/when I get round to picking them up. Lovely job.

The sister looks way better in that color scheme compared to the citadel version.

 

Now I've done 8 out of 10 Dawnriders. Only got the steedmaster and banner left. I have two weeks of vacation with no big plans... I should be able to finish my whole Lumineth army before 2022?!

And here is the whole army. It was hard to get a good picture with them all. My camera is pretty old though!
These will be the last pictures I post for now, since I'm done with the painting project :)!
