Maybe someone has already noticed, but I have a question: why on earth that shield has "Karl Franz" written on it??
Where...no, when did this gargant get it?!

Hello dear people, thanks you for the replies. really appreciate it .

 

the thing is I want them to look like the corpses from that Poltergeist picture, so they are not ghosts. they are for a diorama, they come out from muddy graves so to speak. so they will not be on bases, they will be integrated into a diorama.

 

thank you for that link Fulcanelli, def will check it out, hope there is something good there . cheers  

You're welcome. Blanche's job is very impressive, and yes, it's sad the technique isn't explained.

I don't like so much contrast paint, I think that with shade and little drybrush you can achieve a muddy looking. Maybe you can try gloss shade, depending on how "wet" you want to go?

[how to paint muddy dirty undead ?]

Yep, a good commitment on the bases is required, but if I understand correctly what you have in mind, you might want to work on a brown/mute palette like John Blanche did!

I love this stuff.

[Hello lot!]

Welcome Bray,
I also play Greywater Fastness, such a cool lore indeed. Enjoy your stay!

[Hello from Italy]

Hi Tzanna!
I've come also to AoS recently, after playing Fantasy years ago... And I also played Bretonnia (still in my heart).
Welcome to the forum!

The Tank Commander has the Steam Tank Keyword (I don't have the Warscroll in front of me but I think so) and he is in range of m model that has the Keywords Ironweld Arsenal and Hero . So yes he can.

Yes, of course, he has the Steam Tank keyword. Seems logical, thank you!

[A unit can benefit with his own ability, if the rule doesn't say?]

Good question, so just to be clear, I follow up with a doubt on the Steam Tank Commander's CA "Target Sighted".

It's this the same case? The commander benefit the +1 hit bonus?
Thank you guys.
 

[Being musician and standard bearer]

Anyway, despite I really love banners, I agree that sometimes musicians are unpleasant to the eye, especially in a minimal size unit (e.g. 5 models)... 
So, as suggested by @Greyshadow, at times I simply glue a trumpet on the back or at the belt of the model.

[Being musician and standard bearer]

Rules for musicians and standard bearers tend to be a bit confusing, and they differ according to different warscrolls.
Chaos knights' warscroll says that 1 model (every 5) can be standard bearer and 1 model (every 5) can be musician: so, IMO, the model can't be the same.

Never seen anything like this, in fact it would be kind of weird... Core rules say that "Command models must be represented by appropriate Citadel Miniatures if they are included in a unit", and it would be logical for me to see 1 model for each role.

Keep in mind that old kits contains a lot of extra bits...

[Skulking in the trees, a new opponent has appeared.]

Hi and welcome! 
I'm also building my Cities of Sigmar army, I think you'll enjoy it.  I picked Greywater Fastness

[AoS 2 -Greywater Fastness Discussion]

Oh, it looks very promising, I like both the ship and the handgunners!
Great conversion @Lightbox, thanks for sharing!

They aren't going to drop any of the units, just potentially update the sculpts.  And if they do update Saurus Warrior and Knight sculpts, I imagine it will get the Slaves to Darkness SC treatment and not replace the old kits. 

Yes, I agree. I really hope for seraphon players!
And probably you're right, guys: it's a sudden increase of interest before the battletome update.

Just a thing i spotted today : 

more than half of seraphon products are out of stock 😵

 

 

just a coincidence?! 😱

Strange! Besides, it says "temporary"... Also we've already seen the old Slann in the terrain preview and saurus in warcry.

It's repackaging a possibility?

[High Elves of Hammerhal (update: Demigryph with Lance / Dragon Prince)]

They looks great!
Good job on the banner.

[AoS 2 -Greywater Fastness Discussion]

I like so much your idea @Lightbox, hope to see some pictures

Probably you won't cut the second Steam Tank, but if you do so, you'll free a lot of points for some screen units.

[Neverchosen, an AoS comic strips]

My compliments, I really enjoy the strips. I like, as you said, the fact they're definitely warhammer, but  enjoyable for everyone, not only who know the deep lore.
Hope for new ones!

[Jabberslythe or Karkadrak]

I too would like to see a picture!

What's strage, to me, it's that it has a huge "vintage vibe".

... but what if it's a mask worn by some big character? Look at the eyes.

I'm here to say that I like your hoplites more than new lumineth ones. 
Also stunning work on metal! 👌

Love your greatswords!
If you please, how do you achieve that bright blue?

I'm fully expecting a Big Waaaagh vs Cities of Sigmar in the Excelsis storyline. Maybe with a unique character that has Ironjawz and Bonesplittaz keyword?

I'd love a something vs Ogors box. Or even a more general box, with maybe an order vs destruction to encourage some wider armies? 

We just got the Bonereapers/Ogors box... But yeah, I'd love a Waaaagh vs CoS box, with an hero for both sides!

[Help find my conversion base.]

I would go with Incubi, because Chosens are an elite infantry, and Namarthi have too light armour.

That’s personal choice, I think - I would disagree personally, as I think the light brown makes the base less visible, focusing more on the model! But a lot of people are using black rims.

Of course it's a personal choice, but OP asked for personal opinions :) Anyway I understand your point so, in this case, I think grey it would fit better, because imho that light brown clash with the model scheme.
