Swordmasters of Hoeth

Its time...

This is my Swordmasters of Hoeth collection repainted. 

I tried some new techniques with heavier shadows and such, they didnt turned out exactly as intended but it will do. Im not repainting them again. 

The collection is all metal from different edition with the exception of the nobleman with the Loremaster honour seen by himself casting a fire bolt.

This is an oooold miniature that will act as an noble with the Warden of Saphery honour. Its not an GW miniature, but he will fit as the design element shares so many similarities.

Initially I really didnt like him but with a new paintjob and some kind of nostalgia for his age I instead love him now.

The miniature is/was from Heartbreaker miniatures, sculpted by Tim Prow 

Freehand painted banner.

Another free-handed banner.

The Loremaster honour makes the character a lv1 mage, gives him a sword of Hoeth and he can wear armour even when casting his spell.

The fireball and the edge of the sword is painted with florescent paints that really pops under a UV light...

Seriously... look at that fireball. Florescent paint is the shit for this kinds of effects.

And for fun I run a quick AI rendition, with mixed result.

Napoleonic French 33e regiment de ligne

 

I just love white Napoleonic uniforms so I just had to have a unit with it...
Here we have the 33e regiment de ligne in 1806 uniforms.

White and purple is nice colours for uniforms.

Warhammer Old World Escalation campaing 1, Army photos

 And a final post from our gamingday of Warhammer fantasy the Old world. Army photos.

All these forces are 500pts of Warhammer Old world.
I felt that at 500pts you got a little of everything, sure these are rather small forces and you wished you had more units or bigger units but it is enough to give you a great game.


First out is a bunch of hairy barbarians from the north.
The massive mammoth acted as the baggage train.
 

Next out is the Tomb kings.

Night Goblins with squigs and fanatics.

I noticed that I had forgotten to take pictures of my own Ellyrion themed High Elf force but luckily on of my friends had a picture.

Using the picture above I toyed around in Chatgpt and after some work managed to create the pictures below. 

I tried to create a fitting surrounding to each force.
