Sweet! Looking forward to it (and tomorrow's my birthday too)!

Congrats man! Hope you had a good one!

I've finished the spawn/were;



I just have to say that I love the Clawed Fiend sculpt, very dynamic.

I also gave my unit of Warriors a new Champion, nothing fancy, just good old Crom with a new head and a new shield;

[Magot]

That spawn is one of the best ever seen !
congrats with a perfect conversion and a beautiful balanced color scheme !
(an Orange bracelet....... Briljant)

[Astraeos]

Great paintjob Glenning!
I did have a good day thanks.

[glenning]

Thank you guys!

Hopefully I'll post some pics of the WIP Marauders and Ogres tonight! The Lord is about 80% finished as well, and I settled with head #2(the Warrior Champion got the other head).
I've also got a lot of Empire bitz,so soon I will embark on another project - good old Ostland, so watch this space.

[Astraeos]

I've just started an Ostland army myself!
Oh damnit I have a rival already!

Yes, I've seen your stuff, looking great so far!

Well, it's time for another update.

Got a lot of stuff in the mail today;


And I've already converted a champion for my first unit of Swordsmen, Ander 'The Bear' Leitner;


Size comparison;

[Astraeos]

Yes, I've seen your stuff, looking great so far!

Then comment dude!

Mr Leitner's looking pretty funky, is he a Greatsword champ or a State Trooper one?

[Daniel36]

Love the greenish blue that you use as the unifying colour. The talisman around that one guy's neck looks really awesome. A true eye catcher.

[Morten C]

Wooooooouww... That were is soooo cool

Fantastic work overall mate

[glenning]

@Astraeos: Consider it done! He's going to lead one of my Swordsmen units, as I have something special in mind for my upcoming Greatswords.

@Daniel36: Thanks man! I must say that I'm pretty pleased with it myself, you can also find some of the greenblueish(that's Hawk Turqouise mixed with Jade Green(or Vallejo's version of it)) hue on their armor.

@Morten C: Thanks, glad you like it!

[Astraeos]

Something special in mind for the Greatswords? Now I'm intrigued!

[glenning]

I haven't really done any converting yet, just been toying around with some different ideas. Anyway, I'll probably use parts from the Greatswords set, Pistoleers and FW's Manann's Blades to create a well-armored and well-armed elite unit.

Does anyone know if the Greatsword arms will fit on a Manann's Blades body?

[Astraeos]

I haven't built any Greatswords myself so I have no idea! It could be possible with some cutting maybe.

[Boreas_NL]

You should be fine... I've used the same arms on the plastic State Troops and they fitted quite fine. The Manann's Blades were designed to fit with the other arms, too (like the spears and halberds) so the bodies should fit the arms for the Greatswords. Or, as Astraeos said, with a little cutting it should be possible...

[glenning]

Thank you guys! Sounds like it'll work - I'll probably order a set of Manann's Blades later this month..

[HiDeke]

That spawn is beyond awesome. Very sharp conversion- and its refreshing to see a spawn that is deformed- but not just a ball of heaving muscle and horns.

With some wings and different head- the clawed fiend would make a pretty great Varghulf also. Or a unit of undead were-beings- the possibilities!

Nice work for sure.

[Grain Weevil]

Nice plog, I like the spawn especially

[pointyteeth]

congratulations, you have now created my new favourite model! The spawn/were looks fantastic!

[glenning]

Thank you guys! Glad you like the Spawn, sometimes you don't have to have a Spawn with a thousand horns and tentacles, while many of them looks awesome it's just not my cup of tea.

I also like this one and some day I will convert another Spawn based on him(or it? ) Any suggestions on a suitable mini??



Anyway, I'm about 50% finished with my first unit of Swordsmen, do you guys want WIP pics or do you want to wait until you can see the finished product?
