    If GW are planning different seasons of Warcry like Underworlds, I'd love an Anvilgard themed set: all different races of cutthroats and some non-ruined back alley/port terrain
  2. MarkK
    That's fantastic, I think it's my favorite in this thread

    Best of luck with the PhD! A simpler game like Song of Blades and Heroes or Warcry might be a good shout, both pretty simplified, with any miniatures working with Song of Blades & Heroes

    Ha! Could be the right idea these days, potential opponent under the same roof too! I know you're up to your neck in studies at the minute, but when you need a break, I would start small and maybe build one of the shadespire warbands, 15-20 mins a day, two warbands built and you can play a game. Then prime and paint in small sessions. In a month or two, you could have a fully painted game, which is a rare thing!

    I got back into the hobby just over a year ago, and starting buying minis for multiple games but never really completed anything, just jumping from one project to another. I've pretty much stopped buying until progress is made on what I have, e.g. I'm building towards a 1000 pt Nurgle army this year, have a start collecting set in progress, won't buy more for it until that is completed. It was annoying me looking at a desk full of half finished minis, and took the enjoyment out of it, just felt like work trying to get stuff finished. Feels good to just complete stuff and put it away. Good article from the author of frostgrave on the subject: https://therenaissancetroll.blogspot.com/2019/10/deliberate-purchasing.html?m=1

    Started on Nighthaunts from the Mortal Realms magazines as a change of pace from Nurgle Blightkings. In the last week I've built and primed the chainrasps, stalkers and banshees and started painting the chainrasps. Used loaded brush to blend in the ghostly effect on the robes pretty quickly. Update 1: Experimented with oil washes, pretty happy how they turned out, still need to apply highlights, but lessons learned!

    Pledge for this month is to: • finish the unit of putrid blightkings from last month • paint a converted Nurgle sorcerer • start painting 2 pusgoyle blightlords

    Thanks, it's a metal tone I find hard to get right, mostly looks like dull gold instead of the warm reddish colour here
  10. MarkK
    Nice work! Really like the copper on the overlords, do you mind me asking how you done it?
  11. MarkK
    Blightkings are WIP now, 1 almost complete, hope to finish before the end of the month!
  12. MarkK
    Female Knight incantor, nice enough model, may swap the head out myself though
  13. MarkK
    Might of use to you also, bone colours used by the painter of the studio army, might be a bit much for a full army though!

    Posted by DaveC on Dakka, shipping manifest for 10th of February for sons of behemat battletome
  15. MarkK
    These are beautiful, good job! What colours did you use for the brass and red if you don't mind me asking?
  16. MarkK
    Really characterful conversions, great work!
  17. MarkK
    Well on with the pledge, got more time at the weekend than I was expecting; all built bar gap filling and basing. Upping my pledge to painting the unit of putrid blightkings
  18. MarkK
    I found that a wet pallet was the biggest change that improved my painting, opened up a lot of techniques like glazing and blending, that and trying to use washes more conservatively instead of the GW method of washing all over. I'm trying to add more colours through thin glazes to my skin tones, purples for recesses and reds for cheeks, example spoilered below
  19. MarkK
    Made a start! Great kit to put together
  20. MarkK
    Pledge for this month is to build a start collecting maggotkin box and convert a Nurgle sorcerer from the necromancer kit. Hope to get some painting done too if I get the time!
  21. MarkK
    Hi all, starting maggotkin as my first AoS army and want to build up to 1000 pts initially. I have a unit of 5 blightkings, a Lord of Plagues painted and a SC! Box ordered. What units should I add next to reach 1000 pts? Thanks
  22. MarkK
    Nice work! Great job on the terrain too!

    Scion of flame art seen on dakka, from Warcry champion's tome:

    Pledge for this month is to finish the Untamed Beasts warband I started last month and start and hopefully finish the Iron Golems.

    Cheers elfhead, it looks great, very realistic, don't think I would have figured it out!
