Been a bit inactive again, hehe. Just to show you guys what I have been working on lately: Cellphone pics, yes the attic is a mess (my dad uses it as "office", I discarded 3 boxes of old paper, just so I could add an aditional floortom...) http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n82/Sarcon89/DS...

Ah, I didn't know that. I built my peg from other bits. Hmmm quick thinking then. How good is your sculpting? You can trim sone off the chain mail and cloth to make the wings fit, then sculpt it a bit of a "fold" over the wing (Don't really know how to explain this in proper English). If t...

I think he rather wants to use the model he already bought for it. You could change the angle of the "flight" of the pegasus, glue the CoK legs on, and trim the top down so the body will fit in place better. Got any pictures to show us the exact problem, and to see how the peg looks with t...

Also, the problem would not be the resolution as much as bandwidth. It takes forever to load images with dial-up and not all places have broadband internet available. And if someone uploads 10 1600*900 images, even a broadband connection is going to take its time. HUZZAH! What? No broadband!? Where...

Maximum Picture Size rule, P&M

I think the rule for maximum size pictures can change about now. There's new technology, and computers aren't as they were like 2-4 years ago. Most people use high screen resolutions nowadays with larger monitors (19"+), so I guess the screen resolution can be raised to 1024x768 (would be rough...

I'd personally drop the mage, get hotek in there somewhere, and get a war hydra. They rock at 1k. And 1k pts doesn't really have hard magic anyways.

@ Ampao - I'm glad you like it, I was a bit skeptic about the way the painting turned out at first, but now that it's varnished and seen them a few times, they're quite alright. Thanks for the comment @ Lord_Azoth - I'll try to make a few new photos later today. My hydra suffered some damage, sadly....

Very nice, very well done. Good job on the first green. The details all look great, it just looks odd because the proportions are a bit off (esp at the legs)

My favourite must be the khainite bloke, he just simply beams out bloodlust. All the details add a lot of character to your model. Well done!

Oh yes, it's been a while. I decided to update my thread. My mates signed me up for a tournament so I HAD to paint something. Deadlines are great for results I've taken a *small* break from warhammer, hence my inactivity. So, here's what I have done the past month actually: Hydra: http://i110.photob...

You could try to shade the gold parts a bit (A mix of devlan mud + leviathan purple works really well), and then rehilight it to shining gold, and highlight the edges with shining gold + a bit of mithril silver. The regular metals could use a bit more contrast aswel. This can easily be achieved with...

I like it! I would consider replacing Manbane on the Death Hag with a BSB to reinforce the Stubborn LD9 on the BG but thats just personal preference. Overall though, a good list. If she's my BSB, who's my general? Thanks for all the positive feedback. I hope to playtest this list sometime this week...

That's correct. Khorne heralds confer Hatred to bloodletters. Chillwind works fine against flamers, rendingstar assassins and dreadlords with potion of strength + hydra blade + pendant on a black dragon can easily take down a weakened thirstier (@ 3 wounds left it should be easy). Knights are great,...

Maybe have a single character on dark steed with a pendant/sword of might/full mundane hunt warmachines on his own? If he fires at that with his boltthrower, I wish him goodluck.

I'd go with the second list, but swap the whip of agony for the crimson death. You got the pendant + regeneration anyways, so why bother with a shield. A 4+ save is good enough. I'd also swap the sacrificial dagger for a dark star cloak, because with a unit this small, you'll start losing ranks when...

Trying another style of Druchii - 1k pts list kickoff

I'm used to playing Druchii with nearly no blocks. Just 2 units of RXB and one unit of spearmen tops. The rest is all cav, skirmisher or monster.
