I just started playing WHFB about a week ago and have had an army done for some time now. I’m in the process of repainting some models and making some new additions. I figured this would be a great way to keep me going and get some new ideas. All comments and critique will be appreciated.
i fixed the picture siz problem. the Shoteye Boar boyz  here Is a side profile to show the banner.  This banner will be the theme for most if not all of my army. let me know what you think. This post has been edited by ahmusgra on Sep 6 2011, 04:30 AM |

Heey, nice vibrant colours! I really like the yellow shields especially, are you going to make that an army-wide thing?

Hi, nice start. I like the colours.
Putting the old and new minis together can be hit and miss. Personally I'm not sure the old boars and new ones fit together terribly well. I would be inclined to field 'em as 2 seperate units, but that is just my view. |

Thanks for all the comments. I agree about the mixing of the boars, but hey you use what ya got. when I get 5 more of the new ones ill be swapping them out for sure.
I finished the Black orcs last night so here you go  Instead of the shields I added the theme to the shoulder pad of each Blorc I like the way it turned out.  let me know what you think all thoughts are welcome. |

The next thing im working on right now is a full re-paint of my 10 forest goblin spider riders. they were some of the first models i painted. im going to try and make the paint scheme fit with the rest of the boys. should be posting them within a few days.
If anyone has any tips, comments, or dislikes please im all ears. constructive criticism can be the best way to improve. thanks |

I like the choice of yellow for the accent color. For some reason I don't tend to see that in WHFB all too often. Well done.
What's on the plan after the spider riders? |

Im not sure what's next after the spiders. I have a lot of stuff i want to touch up or re-paint all together.
1. unit of 20 orc boyz with hand weapons and shields 2. unit of 19 orc boyz with spears and shields 3. unit of 40 night goblins with spears and shields 4. unit of 20 night goblin archers 5. 1 giant 6. I need to come up with a crew for the spear chukka that I made. Things I would like to get new 1. Big Spider  2. buy or fabricate a doom diver 3. need an orc shaman 4. need a few boss types to add to the army. This will all take some time to come up with but its what I have in mind at the moment. Thanks for all your comments. I got 2 of the spider riders done tonight (ran out of primer ) hopefully ill have more pics up soon. they turned out better then I hoped so I cant wait to see the whole unit finished. |

 I gave most of the theme to the spiders but also added it to the shields and feathers.  Let me know what you think. |

Thanks "Dagreenskin" the one thing that I felt my models were missing was better basing so I decided to give it a try.
I finshed touching up my Giant  I gave the color scheme to the Dragon scales and the Banner theme I decided to give him a shoulder tattoo of the Blood shot eye  Let me know what you think. This post has been edited by ahmusgra on Sep 18 2011, 04:13 PM |
