Progress Updates, yay!

So I finally took the time to take some pictures of the Dwarf hammerers unit I've been working on. I had every intention of doing updates with a basic tutorial of how I painted them but... I didn't. Whoops.

However! I do have plenty more squads to paint for my Dwarf army and I WILL be doing a tutorial for those. It should be noted that the tutorials will not be vastly detailed. I'm painting my army to what I consider an above average table-top standard and this is what they will reflect. Hopefully SOMEONE out there will get something useful out of all this and maybe, just maybe, inspire some hobbying of your own!
Enough chatter. Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of painting!

Dwarf Hammerers

Close-up of the basing

 A unit of 24 Hammerers. They will be my Dwarf Lords' bodyguard unit. They're old sculpts for sure, but I love them for some reason. Not the most dynamic posing, but they have a timeless quality to them I think. The unit champion and standard bearer are not pictured, I'm painting them separately.

More Basing

Dwarf backsides, sexy!

Profile shot

Close up shot of the basing. I'm doing a mountain wasteland basing theme. Seeing as how Dwarven Holds are all from the mountains, kind of a no brainer. I'm debating if I should add some snow flock to make it pop a little more but I'm afraid the green trim I'm doing on their armor will make it look too Christmas-e. Hmm...







More basing shots, hurray!














Here's a detail on the shields. I'll be doing a tutorial on how I paint gold in the near future. I get asked about gold and bone colors a lot, so I guess I paint it well. Don't judge based on these pics, I'm still new to this blogging damnit!









Here you can actually see the details of the Hammerer models. It's really a shame to have them ranked up in formation cause you miss out on how well these models have held up (seeing as how they're about 20 years old).









Now I still have a few minor details to complete like gems and such, but you get the idea how they'll turn out!
Ta-ta for now! Peace.
