Thanks, I'm not sure yet, I think it'll be a campaign, but I wasn't really told what's happening other than they'll be doing Battle Companies

Thank you, I have some conversions lined up, and then painting

Here are the first 5 Dwarves, 3 with Two-handed Axes, and 2 with Dwarf Bows, including the previous Dwarf (right)

Should be converting some more later, then painting Khazad-Guard/Vault Wardens

Very detailed 'baggage'.

Thanks GtW, I'm working on some backpacks and bedrolls at the moment, and painting the elites when waiting for Green Stuff to cure

Got some more Dwarves done:

You can see more pictures (including the Warriors) on my blog:

Aye, a quarter of your dwarves are metal? No Dwarf Hornblower? Funny that Gimli is one of the painted and Murin and Drar are not. No Kings Champions any time soon?

Yep, a quarter are metal Dwarves (and then a third of them are heroes). No Hornblower yet, I need to pick up the command box, as I want another captain, a shieldbearer, a Hornblower and another banner. I'm not sure if I'll get King's Champion, I want to get Iron Guard first. How is it funny that Gimli is painted but Murin and Drár aren't?

GothmogtheWerewolf · **Posted:** Sun Apr 01, 2012 2:06 pm

Funny because Gimli is canon and popular, but the two two are unloved in general IMO. You shoulf get Iron Guard for SBG, the Champion is nice if you want to think on it.

Next time I see Iron Guard in a shop, I'll be buying them, a Great Beast, or a Dragon. The King's Champion I'm still not sure on.
I like Murin and Drar, just Gimli is cheaper points-wise (I play smaller games), but I may be painting them this month. They could work quite well in a warband of 5 shields, 5 bows and a banner/hornblower...

I've also added a poll for everyone to choose what I paint next

Chris GoM · **Posted:** Sun Apr 08, 2012 8:15 pm

As I'll be painting Ashrak the Spiderkin next, I thought I'd do a review for all those interested:

|Well personally, I hate the model and everything it supposedly represents, but it could be good at getting female players to buy it as some of them think he looks cute.

Nice review all the same, and goood luck with the painting.
