Army Project: The Penant Crusaders

[Causalis]

Hello everyone!

I want to document the creation of my Stormhost "The Penant Crusaders" in this thread. Originally I had bought the SCE half of the Dominion box on a whim. I painted a few of the models but didn't like the colour scheme I tried and so they just sat on my pile of shame. This month we hosted a big tournament at our local gaming club and it was the perfect excuse to dust off those minis, get them painted up and crunch out a 2000p army. I managed to paint all these minis in two weeks and I'm really happy with how they turned out! Here are the results:

I have no idea how you can paint this in two weeks! ****** awesome!

Thank you!  Streaking Grime goes brrrr! Painting the models so fast is possible because I use a very limited colour palette. Iron Warriors for the silver, Scale Color ***** Gold for the trim and a beige colour for the cloth. Then Streaking Grime over everything. I then remove most of it and stipple on some Leadbelcher on the armour and highlight the Gold a bit. For the rust I thin down Skrag Brown a lot and dap it on and then another stipple with Firedragon Bright. For the oxidized metal I use a turquise green. Snow is Valhalla Blizzard from Citadel. 

I'm currently adding a blue OSL to the weapons in order to get more visual interest on the models.

I got some more painting done! Three Evocators on Dracolines are now finished.  I'm really happy with the bases. Bought a basing kit from Gamers Grass and I think the temple ruins amidst the snow are quite pretty.

I've also got three Prosecutors, ten Sequitors and six Longstrikes in the pipeline.
