Empire army List from episode 26
This is the list we talked about on episode 26. I already have some thoughts on what I change but I would love to get some imput from others.
Araby Army Diary - Xbowmen & Knight
After seeing Matt’s awesome progress with his army, I thought it was time to put up a few more pics of my growing Araby(empire) army.
The first image is of 4 more crossbowmen. Since the first test model I have streamlined some of the colour combinations. For example the yellow belts on the original models were done by laying down a layer of Tempest Ochre followed by a chestnut ink, I then reapplied Tempest Ochre followed by Iyanden Darksun. While I will continue this system for heroes and other important models. For the rank and file I have cut out the second layer of Tempest Ochre. This saves valuable time with no real disadvantage in the appearance of the model. I also changed the skin tone to be more middle eastern in appearance. By using Calthan Brown as a basecoat for the skin followed by highlights of Tallarn Flesh I am very happy with the result.
Araby Swordsman
This is the second model I have painted in about a month. This is one of the swordsmen from my Hell Dorado starter set.
Army Diary First model
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
