50pts painted now to basing

Still not sure about the bases for this army. I want an urban base theme but how to do it alludes me atm.

Anyway I have painted a full 50pts now. The winter gaurd need some prettying up, like faces finished but they are good enough to take to a tourney now. I will do alittle more work on them as time permits. Ive also done a quick paint job on torch (Not my torch I will build a heavily modded version if he palys well) Also a couple of mechanics are near done as well. Once again a few small details to finish but good enough for now.

Winter gaurd with Yoseph. I left a few at home but a unit of 10 with command are done.

The worst thing about digital cameras is they show up mistakes I cant see with my own eyes. I will do alittle more work on the faces tho.

My version of torch. Needs some battle damage and more highlifhgts and shading but he willdo the job for now.

I hope to do some basing this week so stay tuned.

A Quick Update

The bodies of the MOW are near done. A few bits to clean up and some battle damage (which may have to wait) . They look a little drab at the moment so I will put a splash of red in there somewhere as well. Next is finish weapon and shields which just need a bit more highlighting. Also the cod pieces need t be glued on as well..

More soon

Cancon here I come

Been awhile since an update but I have been slowly progressing My Khador army for both Cancon and the BBBB. I have had a bit of success with Sorscha of late wining 8 of my last 10 games. Its a one hit wonder but so far the caster snipe is working for me.

Along with my new found respect for Sorscha is a growing respect for the resiliance of the MOW's so I went out and bought Drahken and added him to my army as well. I now have enough bits to field all 3 types of MOW units as well as 2 solos.

Anyway I decide to go to Cancon next year.

What is Cancon?

Cancon is a game convention runs in Australia’s capital City “Canberra” organised by the Canberra Games Society, it’s been around for ever!

I usually go to Dogcon in Sydney (Well Ive been twice) but the last couple of years the numbers have been down and Cancon is currently the premier event. It runs Friday 27th – Sunday 29th - This is the Australia Day weekend.

There are two events during the weekend for Warmachine/Hordes

25 Point Highlander – One day event

In order to keep my painting time down I will be taking a core army for both events

Not sure about the points for this as I thought it was 3 points for 4 mechs but seems I get 6 for 3 points online.
So I have alot of minis to paint still.

Base colors for the Man O war unit. I was originally going to magnetise the weapons but now I can field all 3 types.

Wips of the shield. The colors dont really show up well with this camera. Maybe I need a better light source.

This is the unmounted Drahkun. Picture is bad but the base color is Khaki and grey.

This is Drahkuns horse. Still have the head to go and also put him on the bigger base. I havent really decided on basing yet but it will be some sort of urbin base job.




Hopefully more to come this weeks
