Well, finally I have managed to get the scorched grass I wanted for my bases and can start completing my units. So here is the very first unit I have got done as a tester, my heavy weapons Free Company detatchment. Course they are just normal free company... I just wanted to give them some silly weapons

.

More to follow as I complete units.

Try twisting the flagellant torch up to 90 degrees either clockwise or counter-clockwise. You probably want the flame look best from the front and back rather than the sides.

Go Hochland!

Nice to see some work from you.

I like the conversions, the best are the one on the far left and the one on the far right. The first looks mean, and the other looks cocky, nice personalities.

Hope to see more work soon.

Thanks

Good point about the flames... I did almost wonder whether I should even go a step further and tilt them so they face directly upwards... if I was going to reposition them anyways, maybe that would look more realistic...

And yes indeedy, go Hochland!

Very nice work

Well, I've got my next detatchment done now, it's been a little slow going what with the whole making a board and making beasts too...

Next thing I think will probably be some characters

Great looking troopers. Menacing lot, though....

Dino! · « **Reply #7 on:** April 11, 2008, 01:10:05 PM »

Very nice man. I can't wait to see some characters.

Kurt Rødkopf · « **Reply #8 on:** April 11, 2008, 07:26:08 PM »

The one on the far right from your first post looks realy ninja style

,.. but then with a big axe

Your Mother · « **Reply #9 on:** April 11, 2008, 09:21:19 PM »

The expression on the second crossbowmen from the lefts face look like he just witnessed something go horribly wrong.

Very nice work as I said earlier though.

no, its that he's looking at a daemonette and wishes he was on her and that she would not want to kill him, or he saw a pair of oversized ***** on a daemonette

Siberius · « **Reply #12 on:** April 11, 2008, 10:18:55 PM »

I just noticed he's got some terrible acne going on too, poor guy

Siberius · « **Reply #13 on:** April 28, 2008, 01:57:56 AM »

Well, I said there'd be some characters and here they are! (I was going to put my captain/general up too but when I saw the picture close up I realised I have a little touch-up to do before that one makes it to the forum).

In the mean time though, here is my jade and bright wizards (chosen purely because they fit the colour scheme of my army

)

And my huntsmen, which I already posted somewhere else a while back because someone was asking about them, but I have since finished them to a degree which I feel more happy with.

So all things going well, the next up will be that captain and a cannon which I am in the process of basing. Thanks for looking.

Dino! · « **Reply #14 on:** April 28, 2008, 02:09:16 AM »

Very nice wizards. I like the bright wizard. The archers look nice as well. Keep up the good work man.

Hooch · « **Reply #15 on:** April 28, 2008, 06:25:24 AM »

Nice looking models

Especially the wizards.

Keep up the good work for Hochland

Hooch

warhammerlord_soth · « **Reply #16 on:** April 28, 2008, 06:51:22 AM »

Great stuff Siby.

Huntsmen are exemplary.

Jade wizard is cool...

The Bright wizard is hot....

, but maybe needs a wash to blend his colours some more ?

Siberius · « **Reply #17 on:** April 28, 2008, 11:13:12 AM »

Good point Soth, I wondered whether he could do with something like that but I have a severely limited ink set right now... gonna have to stock up on some colour ones.

All I need now is that flaming monkey poo monkey that Steveb made and he'll have the perfect familiar

WolfyGriess · « **Reply #18 on:** April 29, 2008, 08:17:37 PM »

they are definately looking good, better than good really.

I fear that my poor old Sollanders wouldn't look so good under such close scrutiny.

I think I prefer the look of the Huntsmen to the Crossbowmen, but that's just my pref. I need to get me more of both!

Siberius · « **Reply #19 on:** May 10, 2008, 04:04:26 AM »

I'd like to post more pics of this really but for some reason my camera vanished them, it does that. But anywho, here is my first cannon. (I only have one... but I'm sure more will follow in due time).

GamesPoet · « **Reply #20 on:** May 10, 2008, 01:18:19 PM »

Looks like they are watching something up in the air.

Siberius · « **Reply #21 on:** May 10, 2008, 01:55:09 PM »

Probably a stray pigeon bomb

steveb · « **Reply #23 on:** May 10, 2008, 03:11:13 PM »

Those troops are looking good, bring on more, what brand of scorched grass did you finally end up getting? Thanks for sharing, steveb

Siberius · « **Reply #24 on:** May 10, 2008, 04:00:58 PM »

After much hounding of the local gaming store (and a complete inabilty to get in the right stuff

) I finally ordered it from GW. It's their own brand and I'm glad I did because it's a little toned down from the normal scorched grass that I used on my beastmen and to me that helps with these guys keep the bases muted but not too boring.

The brown flocky stuff itself is tea bags I emptied out into a yoghurt pot mixed with a little crushed up oregano.
