Army Diary First model

Monday, April 28th, 2008

first archer

This is the first post in a series covering my new army project. As I mentioned on previous podcasts, I am putting together a Araby themed army using the Empire and Dogs of War rules.

I am a big fan of Frank Millers Graphic novel and movie “300″ so I want this army to be similar in apperance to the Persian hordes. As you can see the colours are very drab in an attempt to emulate Frank Millers imagery.

This miniature is the first model painted. The army will primarily be made out of Black Tree miniatures. Characters and other bits and peices will come from the Hell Dorado Sarrasins range.

Let me know what you think

Stay tuned for more updates

What is not shown here is the second the microphone because I can’t seem to find the mic stand at the moment.

belial



Direct from the Cry Havoc news letter:

Last week we presented the new Rackham Legends® range. A range that will offer painters and hobbyist exclusive limited edition miniatures that require assembling and painting! Time has come to unveil the first reference of the range: BELIAL

Pre-orders for this miniature are already possible on the Rackham-Store !
Limited to 600 casts, it comes with two possible heads and two possible weapons. Belial is an impressive both in scale and detail. He will be first released as part of the Rackham Legends® range. He will later be available painted and assembled along with the Houses of Acheron.

Belial´s characteristics are available on the official Confrontation forum .
Beware of the beast, Belial is an exceptional piece with exceptional characteristics. Keep the kids and pregnant women away from it. We can promise there will be blood and tears. Do not hesitate to send your feedback and battle reports!

This isn’t quite Warhammer related but wouldn’t this thing make an awesome Keeper of Secrets?
