The unit is looking good. I just remembered what the skull faces remind me of though. They look like this guy's face:...

Ok, updates wasn�?Tt coming so soon after all, it has been several months. There are mainly two reasons: I�?Tve had less time for Warhammer, and when I had, I has been working mostly on my Mordheim warband (http://www.chaos-dwarfs.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=8874) and my goblin army:
But I have done some chaos dwarfs at least. First, I have converted some chaos dwarfs with great weapons, pretty similar to the rest of my army:
And here is a close up of the test model:
And here are some half- painted warriors, a little different from the rest of my models (they have bare arms and their armour trim is red):
(sorry if the pictures are blurry)
And I have also decided HOW I WILL MAKE ASTRAGOTH, the great chaos dwarf lord, the high priest of Hashut and the most potent sorcerer in Zharr Naggrund. Instead of making him from something like a space marine dreadnought, or the old model, I found something that fit much better! I came across a model called Karchev the terrible, in a game called warmachine. He looks almost exactly as I imagine Astragoth, so with a little conversion, he will be a perfect choice! A picture can be found here: http://battlecollege.wikispaces.com/mkiiKarchev
Here comes some random bonus material: a monkey
Bye to next time :hat off
OMG I can hardly wait until Warhammer Forge release the first chaos dwarfs!
nitroglysarine:
That would be an EPIC astragoth, he’d be huge!
I’m considering a similar idea for my inferno golems, some kind of ‘Hi-tek Prosthesis’.
Hazkar:
that a nice looking force so far
that mini will make a huge astragoth
oh and btw:what an awesome monkey!
Alfract:
Fast Progress is Great Progress… looks good
tjub:
Great update, dont leave us waiting as long for the next…
Astragoth would be huge, but its a really cool idea!
Joshmohr:
Fantastic conversion work and great painting. Love the army- cant wait to see more.
astragoth:
Update!
Here are pictures of the now painted troll:
And this is how he looks inside a unit:
I also took a character I made a long time ago and based him:
Then, when everything was painted, I decided to make one more unit, so I made this test- dwarf:
More updates comming soon…
:hat off
Zanko:
Great army so far! :hat off
Like the painting of your Troll a lot! :cheers
The troopers are very well converted and painted - kudos - go on!
:hashut
Vash:
i really like the masks you used for the warrior units, they work really well.
and i also like the flail idea for great weapons… there’s a large chance i’m going to try something simulair.
