Konflikt 47: Some beat up whitewashed Brit bots. They’re the start of a winter force defending their positions on the Rhine. A good chunk of the army are going to be engineering teams who’s whole in lore job is to burn bodies to prevent more totencore.
5 robots armed with 50 cal machine guns. Painted as if they were initially painted green and then have had a white wash applied to them. 5 robots armed with 50 cal machine guns. Painted as if they were initially painted green and then have had a white wash applied to them.

#oathmark test minis Spearmen and linebreakers made using Victrix late Romans and Huscarls respectively. These were really fun and a quick job which is good considering oathmark is a rank and file affair. The plan for these guys is a human Age of Sigmar army uniting the human tribes.
Four soldiers armed with spears and shields. Painted mainly in more drab colours, though the shields are painted in cream and red. Four soldiers wearing chainmail and helmets armed with two handed axes.

If you see this, post your rider(s).... Some WIP pistoleers for my empire army made with @wargamesatlantic.bsky.social renaissance heavy cavalry. Still more work to go but really happy with how they look so far!

More beautiful Warhost minis, this time some sinister looking elves. I used cooler tones so they contrast the other Warhost minis in my collection and the basing, I want them to look apart from the world they abandoned. I’m keen to do more elves but it appears that dwarves are on the horizon!

Maybe consider something from Warhost? They have a lot of cool elves and orcs right now and even have a guide on making men using wga plastics! Pictures of my own minis and some taken from their website. warhost.online/blogs/articl...

I’ve been really enjoying the range of muted greens, browns, yellows and khakis from these historical sets for my pseudo historicals like Warhost. More premixed ones on the horizon is always good news!

Warhost When the men of Velgard march to war they do so wearing light mail shirts armed with a variety of weapons. This unit accompanies a local captain (the guy with the green shirt) so have been armed with falchions instead of the more typical spears or axes.

These guys are done now, it was a fun time but it definitely ended up being a bit of a slog at times. I might go back and touch some bits up but right now I think they’re great.

@Wolfdawgart on the other place posted a picture of some variant schemes when HH 2.0 dropped and the white scar caught my eye, with mk2 coming I thought it was the right time to do some white scars. To me this brotherhood were mainly Terran scars that primarily worked with the SoH..
