The Hellequins are support units, so as with the gargoyles and lukers, I can only use a couple of these in my warband.
I didn't really care for the look of the paint job suggested, so I went with a little different look. I like what I came up with and think these will look nice with the rest of the warband.
These bring my total to 25 models completed for Nick's New Year Painting Challenge. I only have 3 more models to paint for the project.
With the warband nearly finished, I'm looking forward to actually getting a game played soon.
Very nice indeed. I wasn't sure about the full metal look at first glance, but the coldness of the riders is impressive - they seem very otherwordly and that's thanks to your impressive steel effect. Really good metallics. I'm just finishing a pair of them for a friend, painting 'off the box' as far as I can and it's been an interesting challenge. Suffice to say, I don't normally paint a lot of red stuff and this has been a novel experience. Plus I use enamels, just to make my life harder!
ReplyDeleteThanks. Red can be a real challenge, but can also look really good. I went with a different color scheme partially to break up the colors from the rest of the army.
DeleteI've not used enamels since I was a kid doing model cars and stuff. Do you have issues with it cracking on the bendy pieces?
