CGoM - Durin's Folk - June '12 - Done

[Chris Guard of Mardat]

Thanks, I was going to shorten the length of the two-handed axe - possibly change the axehead as well - add make a shield, or buy some from Gripping Beast - probably make some.

I have returned, this time with Dwarf Rangers, painted in the same way as before

I've also updated the painting guide page on the blog.

Good work! Really like the red colour scheme, makes me want to collect dwarves!

this makes me want to go paint all my dwarves i have lying in a dark drawer (thought they would like it there).

the cohesive color scheme really ties the army together.

Hahaha those poor Dwarves - to be honest my Dwarves have banished my Goblins to a similar place

Thanks for the kind comments

Now I just have to decided what to paint for March, out of: 12 Khazad-Guard, 2 Vault Warden Teams, 12 Warriors with Shield, 18 Warriors with Bows,, 8 Rangers with Bows, Durin, Mardin, 2 Dwarf Kings
The two-handed axe-Dwarves(?) still need to be converted

[Chris Guard of Mardat]

I've decided to go for Mardin (who I will also use as a Vault Warden Captain), 6 Khazad Guard and the 8 Dwarf Rangers with bows for my March entry, with 6 more Khazad Guard, 6 Dwarf Warriors with Bows and 2 Vault Warden teams later in the month


I lost the original proof picture, so I had to take this WIP one - only done the flesh on the rangers and Mardin, and metal on Khazad Guard and Mardin, with the red basecoated on the rangers and Mardin

Here's Mardin, 6 Khazad Guard and 8 Dwarf Rangers with Bows - as normal, more pictures can be seen in the blog link:

I'm also working on a painting guide for the article section, so expect to see that up with the next batch

Boom! They look really gritty and realistic, im impressed.

..If I ever put together a dwarf army (which I probably shall some day!) I might have to rip off your paint scheme..

[Chris Guard of Mardat]

Thanks Danasdfgh My Dwarves would be honoured to have some more e-friends

[Chris Guard of Mardat]

Here's part 2 of March - the question is whether I will finish them without getting distracted, my Warg Riders and Wild Wargs have arrived so the answer is probably no...



17 Dwarves - 6 Warriors with Bows, 4 Warriors with Two-handed weapons, 2 (Metal) Vault Warden Teams (shields not attached), and 3 Khazad guard
