  1. So, I have a bit of sad news... apparently, some of my older models that I varnished a couple of months ago by brush had a bad reaction to the cold weather here... and they have frosted by a noticeable amount. It really sucks because I've had these models for about a year now. The models affected: 2x Allopexes My Squad of 5 Ishlaen Guards, which were some of the first models I painted. Fortunately, nothing else has been affected by this. Still really bumbed out by it. I think they stand up enough that I can still put them on the table. But I will ultimately replace them when I can. After selling my Daughters of Khaine, and now this, my collection of painted models has grown and shrunk simultaneously this year. I cannot wait to get more stuff painted and based this year. And since it's winter, got nothing to do but paint more stuff :).
  2. Went back to my Treelord Ancient and made some more progress. Still WIP.
  3. Went back to one of my Kurnoth Hunters to see how I could improve it. Here's the result: Akhelian 95% finished, needs some clean up work. Three more Reavers completed.
  4. Sorry for the delayed update, and that there's not much to it at the moment. I was going to paint last weekend, but then I got sick as a dog and couldn't really be bothered to do anything but sleep lol. I did build a Wild Drycha. I've made some progress on my Soulrender, which is definitely still WIP. I'm trying to figure out how I want to base the blue armor. I could use the regular silver highlights, or I could try something different like a neon green to kind of give it a more undersea feel. I also managed to get another Reaver past the basing stage, for seven in total, but the pics I took only include the six completely based so far. I hope to start painting again this weekend.
  5. It has begun... Working on finishing one Namarti Reaver unit, then I'll switch to the Akhelians. Different stages for these three.
  6. Didn't get as much as I wanted done last month either lol. Here's my to-do-list this month: One Squad of 10 Namarti Reavers 1 Unit of 3 Akhelian Guard 1 Tidecaster 1 Soulrender 1 Soulscryer
  7. Hi Josh, Sorry for the late response! Thanks about the magnets, they were a bit pricey, but man they're worth it! Will eventually transition most of my eels to this. I bought the magnet + bases + supplies from Magnet Baron, if anyone is interested. I know they do customer orders on top of the stuff they already sell. Got the rest of my army primed. I should wait on the rest of my paints to come in... but I might paint something this weekend with what I have lol.
  8. Not certain if I'll get the paints I ordered in time to paint these this month, but, I thought I'd share! Sorry, working at my desk rather than the painting table lol.
  9. Still some work to be done, but here is my renewed progress on the eidolon.
  10. So, still WIP... this wasn't originally on my list, but I've gone back to my Eidolon tonight and here is culmination of my progress!
  11. Hi guys, first time joining in on the thread. This month, I will attempt to paint: 20x Namarti Reavers 1x Soulrender And maybe 2x Akhelian Ishlean Guard We shall see!
  12. @Trevelyan A second wraith would probably be a better option, wouldn't it, for redundancy? I do like your idea for giving the Treelord the Vesperal Gem, the Branchwraith the chalice, and giving Drycha the regrowth. Then the second branchwraith something that is a little more unreliable, but like you said, increasing volume, like Treesong, Dwellers, or VH. I'm feeling it😁. Will definitely try the Quicksilver Swords, since both of you recommend it. Question: I'm actually relatively new to AoS... how many Wyldwoods are ideal for any game? My initial thought is perhaps three?
  13. @Griffin839 Hi Griffin, thanks for that advice. Glad that you like the list overall. Will definitely be considering what you said about the artefacts and the Endless Spells. I can see how the Gladewyrm is the weaker of the Sylvaneth specific Endless choices, and I'm inclined to agree that another endless spell here would be good. I'll experiment with the pallisade and the quicksilver swords and see which ones I like the most. Thanks 😀!
  14. I know Winterleaf is the thing these days, but I'd appreciate any advice on this list. #Gnarlroot# Are there any other endless spells I should consider swapping my current ones with? - Glade: Gnarlroot LEADERS Treelord Ancient (300) - General - Command Trait : Nurtured by Magic - Artefact : Chalice of Nectar - Deepwood Spell : Regrowth Drycha Hamadreth (320) - Deepwood Spell : The Dwellers Below Branchwraith (80) - Artefact : Spiritsong Stave - Deepwood Spell : Throne of Vines Branchwych (80) - Deepwood Spell : Verdurous Harmony UNITS 20 x Spite-Revenants (200) 15 x Spite-Revenants (180) 5 x Spite-Revenants (60) 5 x Tree-Revenants (80) 5 x Tree-Revenants (80) 6 x Kurnoth Hunters (400) - Scythes BATTALIONS Outcasts (100) ENDLESS SPELLS / TERRAIN Spiteswarm Hive (50) Vengeful Skullroot (40) Gladewyrm (30)
  15. The Warhost of the Mu'garean is growing!!! (Dryads still a work in progress!)
  16. Absolutely loving this! Been thinking how to paint my eels for a little while now... might have to try using an airbrush!! Great work! Also, really cool stuff in this thread :). Will have to participate next month!
  17. Durthu is still in Stage 1: So he's looking very incomplete right now. So, what can I tell you about Scale 75 Fantasy and Games Range? 1) These paints are much thinner than the regular Scale 75... don't need much to any shaking like their cousins, which you need to shake to death. You also need to barely thin them, since they're really thin enough. 2) Coverage. So, over a white undercoat, most of the colors will adequately cover in one or two coats maximum. It was actually kind of insane, because I was covering deep browns with faded greens, crimson with bright orange, etc. Of course, sometimes it takes a couple coats. Also, I'm proud to announce that the mid-yellow color covered over the white primer in about one or two coats without a problem! 3) The metallics are gorgeous, but the most difficult part of the Scale 75 range that I bought. Layering them over a dark steel didn't really work too well. Neither did layering them over a flat black... might try the vallejo gloss black sometimes and see if that helps. 4) Inks are great so far! The only ink on Durthu at the moment is a mix of violet + chestnut brown ink, which is on the main color of the wood. The wood was a deep bruised red before, now it's a deep wooden brown, but still with a hint of that red beneath.
