It's been a year since Age of Sigmar 2 was released and now the next stage in the Soul Wars is upon us, Forbidden Power! So what does this box contain and what exactly does the new book hold within its arcane pages? Read more »View the full article

These look awesome. I think I may borrow your skin color there. It's exactly what I was looking for.

Settra does not kneel! Keep it up, loving the TK models.

Cool! You should see if he can take some pics of the finished full army too. Would be cool to see how close the 2 painting styles match as well.

That's awesome to see a Warherd army, and a well painted one too! Do you have any more close ups of the models. Just added it up, thats about 1,500 points. Are they going to have you paint any more models to beef it up to 2,000?

You're stuff looks like cell shading, it's really cool! I especially like your ghouls, so clean, and that grey and purple are perfect.

Bravo!

This is a very nice looking army. Love seeing older armies like this get some attention in AoS. Will definitely be following this thread.

It's hot here (Michigan) today (in the 80s) but I went from my Air Conditioned house, into my Air Conditioned car, to my Air Conditioned office. So I guess it doesn't really bug me. Anyway, orruks, orruks orruks! Da orruks don't care bout no heat. Waaaghh!

Do you not have Air Conditioning over in the UK?

I did some greenstuff work on my Banshee last night. Mostly just filled the gap in her wait, and some gaps on her arms. I still have a bit of work to do on the hand holding the knife, and probably will round out the waist in a few places. I also still want to do the magical energy coming off of her outstretched hand. I'm also thinking about putting her on the base with the two banshees swarming around her, and use them to elevate her a bit, kind of like a mini Nagash. At the moment it looks odd, so I will mess around with it a bit more, maybe heat them up and see if I can bend them more. I also messed around and came up with a warscroll for her to use in narrative/friendly games. In Matched Play games she will just be a regular Banshee who's my general with the command ability that makes her a wizard. The black box on the warscroll will have a picture of the finished and painted model later on.

So last night I was messing around with the Banshees from the Mortis Engine kit, trying to figure out the best way to stick them on a regular base when I looked at some of the other bits I wasn't going to use from that model. I thought the torso from the lead vampire on it was particularly Banshee-esque so I started messing around with other parts and this is what I came up with! Still a lot of greenstuff work to do, mostly filling gaps, like at the waist, and re-sculpting detail that was lost. I may sculpt magical flames coming off her outstretched hand. I'm also playing with the idea of elevating her above 2 of the banshees from the Mortis Engine, so they are swarming around her. I may switch out the head too for one from the Mortis Engine Banshees with some greenstuff work. I'm unsure on that though, I kind of like the look of this, like the death magic has stripped her flesh away. Thoughts? Her robes are made out of the Coven Throne curtains by the way

You beat me to finishing an Endless Deserts table! My own table is only about 80% done and the terrain about 50%.

I got some nicer pictures of my Nighthaunts army done over the weekend. You can see more shows of the army on Mengel Miniatures: http://www.mengelminiatures.com/2017/02/showcase-vanguard-nighthaunts-army.html Thanks!

Love it!

Last night I managed to finish up my Banshee and my Mourngul. With these two done my 1,000 point army is done! This was my original goal, but I will probably continue to expand these guys out to 2,000 points. I think I will go on to a different small army for the moment though. I will have better pictures of everything by next week most likely. Thanks!

Started in on my Mourngul for my Nighthaunts last night. So far I just have most of the shading down, no highlighting yet. I think I'm going to continue making the hands a bit darker. The claws and teeth will be black with ethereal highlights. I don't think this guy will take too long.
