If I'd be able to see the pictures I'd be crying "Averlaaaand!" right now, but I can't

.. so fix it

cool, but I cant see the pics

I love the shields. Feathers could get some more shading/highlighting.
Overall a great job !

Van Der Steegh · « **Reply #5 on:** February 24, 2008, 09:50:47 PM »

As promised : Averlaaand!!!
Very nice use of seperate empire sprues, the helmet on the musician is a nice touch and the shields that they wear on their backs are not too shabby either! The pistolier heads make them look tougher, which is cool.. but absolutely not the truth as i've experienced last friday..

*cough* Morathi *cough*

Paintjob's a good one, but I think if you gave the feathers one last highlight they would look even better.
Still.. superb painting..

Not yet, I currently working on a militia detachment for the spearmen I will post them here when I have done the front rank. I must warn you that I'm a slow painter.

Thanks to everybody for your comments

Nice to see some more of the fine Averland troops

They look really nice; do you also play Wood Elves? I am pretty sure I see some Wood Elf bits in there...

Dino! · « **Reply #19 on:** March 27, 2008, 12:33:46 AM »

Very nice Averlanders. The yellow must be tough to get. Keep up the good work.

Your Mother · « **Reply #20 on:** March 27, 2008, 01:01:16 AM »

Very work here keep it up. im glad some put those Wood Elves to use. i hate Wood Elves for some reason i dont even really know why. The only good WE is a dead WE. Im getting to off-subject, em as i was saying nice work.

farmer · « **Reply #21 on:** March 27, 2008, 09:29:00 AM »

Thanks for the replies !!

@ Wyzer1: My brother plays Woodies so I get the spares from him.
@ Dino!: The yellow I use for my state troops is the foundation paint Iyanden Darksun which is really easy to use.
@ Your Mother: I couldn't agree with you more!!

Van Der Steegh · « **Reply #22 on:** March 27, 2008, 02:31:35 PM »

Very nice, I like the woodland you added to their bases and the head swaps.
Good idea, nice execution!

farmer · « **Reply #23 on:** April 13, 2008, 06:48:29 PM »

Here are some more Militia men that I have done recently
