SHADOWS OVER HAMMERHAL - HEROES

You may of seen some of my journey posts chronicling our adventures into Hammerhal.
you may well of also seen the odd picture of thier mini's as they have been getting painted.

well here is a better look at all of them


I decided that whilst i have been trying out different painting methods the last few months. i would simply trial how the paint guide within the box set fared. And whilst i was missing a couple of colours to do exactly the same. i was still able to find the odd replacement or mix up something similar.

LORD CASTELLANT

My guy during our campaign. i never really liked these gold shiny dudes when they first came out..sigmarines right?? regardless he was fun to paint up. retributor armour paint is by far the best quality gold paint i have ever used. the pigmentation is so full and the paint still doesnt clog up.
rather than paint using the colours provided in the paint guide. i went with retributor armour. washed with reikland fleshade and then simply built up in layers using chainmail (some of my paints are old!!)
regardless he was fun to paint. 




BLACK ARK FLEETMASTER

he was a pain to glue together and that anime hair needed a few touch ups. this figure isnt one i would of ever thought of purchasing. but now i have him. its a pretty cool mini. i love that cloak and the blade leg. also he was bloody hard to take any 'sweet spot' style photo. so apologies for lack of face shot.





LOREMASTER

This guy i painted up first out of all of them, due to my youngest daughter having this guy as her character. i had to lie and say it was a girl so she would play...c'mon GW sort it!
regardless he came out really cool. and im glad how the paint job turned out.
I have never been a fan of elves. but painting this one made me start to look at other alternatives as well. so may well make a few purchases soon.





COGSMITH

This guy in game is a total beast for ranged attack. that axe though, leaves a lot to be desired.
i'm not too keen on this sculpt. and due to his range. i was seemingly a little too far away when i primed him too! hence the graininess. but he came out well enough.





Ive actually painted all of the minis except 2 now in the hammerhal boxed set. So coming up soon will be the gryph hound and the chaos sorcerer. I also have to take some photos of the Putrid Blightkings who have also been painted up now. my next hammerhal journey post will add a few more too. and we are close to completing the campaign so will wrap everything up in a conclusion post. however based on the amount of posts ive put up about this game. that may well tell you how well it has gone down in this household.
Anyways enjoy. and have a nice weekend all :)
