Finished Unit–Chaos Marines Word Bearers

Another inroad into the plastic mountain. The figures are Citadel as is the Chaos Temple in the background.
ChaosGroupShot
This was the first unit I had tried using the Army Painter method. I was pleased with my test piece:
TestCloseup
But I clearly didn’t mix the dip well enough before I used it on the others as they came out brighter and with less definition which was only partially remedied by ink and paint:.
FinalDip
I did like the gloss finish it made them look very different from my matt Imperial marines.
For reference I used the guide available for download from the Army Painter web site. I will be trying again, hopefully practise will make perfect (or at least acceptable).

Finished Unit – Huguenot Command Stand ‘The Notary’

Rightly or wrongly this command vignette illustrates the  most notable aspect of my wargaming with the League of Augsburg. Another brave officer lies slain probably during some foolhardy charge. His replacement has decided that he’d better get a will made before the next turn comes round…

What I’m Working on Now..

Chaos Space Marines that have been sitting waiting for contact with a brush for some years. They probably felt it wasn’t just the Emperor that had forsaken them.

These will be an experiment in dipping… more of which in a later post.
