Kera foehunter:
so where does the other steps leed that are in your picture??
Border Reiver:
Those would be the neighbours, I don’t have good lighting inside and am too cheap to buy a decent light, so I take pics outdoors.
Border Reiver:
It’s been a while but here are some new pics
Kurgan Grudgebearer on foot
Since with the Indy GT rules, I’m using him as a Daemonsmith with the spelleater blade, I created a “Spelleater” rune taking Hashut’s Rune and the Valaya rune (the one that protects Dwarfs from magic)
A Daemonsmith with the Blade of Bedevilment - Curse Rune and a Daemon Rune
Borath the Cruel with the Hell blade of Hashut (rune of Fire, combined with the Hashut Rune
And my tenderiser/ Daemoneater
I’ve also updated the Death Rockets, but as that update only reqired a rebasing and some touch ups, I haven’t taken new photos.
Pyro Stick:
Nice use of the blood bowl models. I think you should do more with the bases though. Like paint on some lava effect or something. And its nice to see a tenderiser although it could do with more colour. One just went on ebay for £37!.
Kera foehunter:
great job i love your paint colors the figure look great as always b r
it look like spring made it to the great white north !!
Border Reiver:
The cost is the reason I haven’t added a Whirlwind.
I agree that my bases are boring, but when your warrior covers most of the base, I just don’t see the point in going for dramatic bases.
Border Reiver:
Got the BFSP Thunderers converted and finished last week - now all I have to do is photograph them as proof.
Am now working on repainting 5 of the other Blunderbusses so I have a unit of 15 and a unit of 18.
Kera foehunter:
we believe you Mr Reiver
but photo are cool to
Border Reiver:
Anything for you Kera - except my heart. That belongs to my wife, that and other body parts.
We’ll start this out with some BFSP Thunderers made into Blunderbusses
The Jericho Regt
The converted Thunderer
And kicking it old school
My Immortals (BFSP Warriors and some old plastics)

Border Reiver:

As an exercise in math I took the list of models that I had in the first post of this blog and assigning mundane equiment to everyone only (and discounting the 20 or so marauder era CDs (cause I haven’t checked to see how many of them I have) and the hobgoblin archers I can field 3,889 pts of Chaos Dwarfs!
I had no idea the army had gotten so large. My only other army that is this large is my Brettonnian force.

jolpis:
wow, you’ve got quite a horde, and where did you get the bull on the champions hat?
Border Reiver:
It was part of a Bull Centaur Standard top. I had cut off the standard to make an axe haft for a champion and thought that the bull woud look good, so I cut it up.
Kera foehunter:
Well B R i love the army it greatly painted !! even more i love how the shrub is growing !!
Border Reiver:
That burning bush is my wife’s and my favourite. In the fall the leaves look really good.
Kera foehunter:
well i hope you have some painting to do then !!
the red will look great for a back ground
Border Reiver:
And now that it’s completed - The Ninevah Regt
It’s Champion
Standard Bearer
Musician
and 2 warriors (one metal and one plastic)
Right now I’m working on two Swivel guns/ Eription Guns - so look for them in the near future.
kefas:
I thought blue is bad color idea for chd bu I was wrong maybe only in your example!
Willmark:
Not bad on the shields its hard to keep freehand steady.
Border Reiver:
Thank you, freehand can be nasty to do well, but a bretonnian army where you try to replicate actual heraldry is good trining.
I managed to finish off the swivel guns today and tried a lava base. These will get redone later.
Kera foehunter:
Kera Take note of the swivel gun !! get her green stuff slave on the idea
i like the tall hat of your hero
