Very quick update on progress.
First up is some really quick and dirty medieval scatter terrain:
Four outhouses to add some character and get in the way of line of site and charges in Mordheim most likely.
Really, really basic and not planning on them winning any votes, but they are done and will look good sitting behind a house somewhere.
Some of the laser detail is really cute too.
Now onto the main point of this post, I would like some opinions. I am almost finished the first lot of Infernal Guard for the Chaos Dwarfs (these are 20 armed with Fireglaives) and will run as two small units of 10. They have no command group so what you see here is the two basic poses (front and rear ranks). Overall I am ok with them, but they are very dark (and the poor quality lighting doesnât help). I just feel that they are lacking âpopâ and wonder if anyone has some ideas? It is hard when they are pretty much an armoured shell with not that much point of focus. I tried highlighting the armour again and found I really didnât like it as they got far too shiny and âdo-gooderâ look to them.
Anyone want to venture some ideas?
Also, I have decided to keep a model count painted for the year and hope to manage 365 models. An extra motivation hopefully to get things done. This will not be anything more than if it is a single model (terrain pieces included) it counts as 1 to save on working out a system for bigger stuff. So, based on that simple criteria I have so far this year paintedâŚ33 models out of 49 days. Not too far behind and I have almost finished these 20 Chaos Dwarfs. I think at least for now I can do this.
Thanks for reading.
