Awesome! The army looks great but custom army book cover is fantastic.

[sknich]

Love it! That looks just like the army I played with in a doubles tournament this weekend. But my Ogres would never ally with such puny humans!

Nice update rexy.

[Zywus]

Sweet idea.
The metal looks a bit smeared though. A coat of the ol' "black wash" (previously badab black) and a really light highlight of say mithril silver or similar would take the armour up a notch without much work.

[snyggejygge]

Great idea, loved the book, have always considered Kislev to be far cooler tha both Empire & Bretonnia, so I love your plog

[Tuttivillus]

Great plog here! I really like the work You did on those chaps. Splendid idea. Keep it up!!!

[AzureDruchii]

Thanks for all the kind words everyone! Just starting work on my display board and peasant archers so I will post pics when I can.

[AzureDruchii]

Alright boys and girls, progress is being made! Knights Errant unit is finished and my archers are coming together. As always, constructive criticism is always welcome

Knights Errant (winged lancer models with ravenwing mini back banners. Wanted to make sure they were different from the KotR and Grails.)






And then my archers! 22 of these bows, all converted. Some of them started as Kislev Kossar models, the rest came from Bretonnian Peasant Bowmen.






Well there you go! Next up is finishing up painting and the display board.

Looking good! Shouldn't the Empire archers box be great for you? Lots of furry hats there.

I just happened to have some peasants laying around and I found Hoodling's blog that converts some Bowmen out of Peasants. I loved what I saw so gave it a go.

Alright everyone, I've done a lot of work yesterday and today so here we go!

First off, couple fences I made for my archers. They are magnetized to the trays for easy removal.

Unpainted


Painted



Then I got my Eagle Rider unit finished. I figured everyone can do normal yellow claws. I wanted something a bit different, plus since Kislev is so near the Northern pole, I figured theres a chance of some minor color changes! You'll likely see what I am talking about.

Whole Unit


and the Champion




Here is what I have left: Trebuchet, Lord, BSB, Level 4, 22 Archers. With 17 days left. ARGGGGGHHHHH

Oh ya, and a display board. FML

Great looking army! Those Kislev models are nice indeed. Also love the fact you did some extra work (with help of friends) for a personalised armybook.

I have no critics, but I do have something to mention, as a well meant idea. When I look at the Kislev models I aspect some guys with muskets. Maybe add some models with muskets for the bowmen unit (with of course "count as")?

[Confessor_Atol]

Really cool stuff, and great background! Kislev has always been underdeveloped in WH background. Next you need to start an Ind. themed army!

[Boreas_NL]

You have a great project going on here! Lot's of character and very original too!

Looking good! Shouldn't the Empire archers box be great for you? Lots of furry hats there.

As for the furry hats, I have around 30 of them should you be interested...Hit me with a PM...

[AzureDruchii]

Alright everyone, the big tournament is tomorrow and my army is... FINISHED! So, thank you for all the kind words and sorry if I haven't gotten back to you recently, it has been a busy few weeks.

HERE WE GO!

First off: Whole army shot



You may have noticed a piece of paper in the background so I'll show that as well.



My new display board.

Lord with his faithful BSB


Trebuchet



Finished Archers



So, I hope everyone likes what you see. If you happen to be going to Quake City Rumble stop by and say hello! Hope everyone likes them in the flesh.

You've exceeded your bandwidth limit on Photobucket.

PS: I don't know if you've seen them, but Warlord Games have posted previews of Polish Winged Hussars, and they're looking great so far.
