Having been through all 17 or so pages, it's become clear to me that I like this army an awful lot! The colour scheme works marvelously, as do all the variations on it; it's all unique but not out of place. I particularly like the Arch Lector, who makes a welcome break from all the Imperial hammer wielding hunks of the cloth.

[Gustavus Magnus]

WOW.

Most impressive.  And I have to say I love the pikes.

[warhammerlord_soth]

Thanks for the comments guys.

Now, on to some serious artillery. I wanted to make enough mortars for the 6 pie plate of Doom army, but one thing has been holding me back : I'd rarely use these models, since, really, I prefer cannons over mortars.
I looked into the Workshop article on making the barrels interchangeable, but disliked the look of the mortat barrel on the long beams...
12 magnets later, I had the solution. I liked it so much, I made two (although that also had another reason, but I'll tell you about that in due time..)

Oh, and since this is a MORtar that can be changed into a cannON, guess what I called it ?

Indeed.... a MORON...  :engel:

[Lord Tilioth]

that is freaking sweet....lol love it :D

All Hail the king of Magnetism!  :biggriin:

*drops to one knee*

Good work, as always.

Hah! I was right about the articles! But nice job, well executed.

And in the series "I really should do something about my lack of artillery", this is the last installment :



Second Helstorm.

Coming from the man who's done it all, that is an enormous compliment. Thank you Steve.

That helstrom came out very nicely! :icon_biggrin: :icon_cool: :::cheers:::

[Albrecht von Hinkel]

The rocket battery looks excellent. I want to do something similar myself as the regular one looks a bit off.

[Valetus]

Really like the rockets, look a lot more sensible than the actual model

[Merrick]

Dude, the guy at the back just saw the Tomb Scorpion tunelling up behind them!  :-o

[warhammerlord_soth]

I still have to flock their bases, but I could no longer restrain myself... What do you think ?

[Inarticulate]

Soth. Jesus christ.

[Obi]

Very nice! Very nice! I love the skin tone and the orange beard.

[Oxycutor]

Those Ogres are great, nice job!

[Hagen_von_Loewenstein]

I just LOVE the pikemen. All the soldiers look brilliant (all the more since Reiklanders are a pain in the but to paint even just decently), but the pikemen take the cake.

I'm not into them ;)

Really though, they are fantastic :icon_exclaim:  one question though, why is the pistol ogres gut and chest a different color? warpaint? sunburn?   I always thought it would be funny to give a shirtless model tanlines.

[Zak]

man so dang cool  :ph34r:

[Stmr5000]

I love two out of the three ogres.  But the one on the right looks odd.  Like I said before, the shield is out of place, especially with how you painted the ogre.

I thought he was wearing a vest...

[Obi]

so did I...

It's his codpiece!
