Nice. I think they would fit very well into an undead army with heavy-weathered equipment and skeleton/zombie heads, or the original helmets with glowing eyes. For vampire counts I can think a complete army building from bret models, based on a Moussilion color theme.

And for the swordmasters: their armor is cool, and the helm-top is also good. I think that you should do something about their face, it's the only thing that bothers me. If you wish, and I don't insult you with my offer, I could make a face-painting tutorial that is very easy (I paint that way, and lately I ended with some nice looking miniatures).

I wondered how that system worked. Friggin' huge map. Wouldn't a Brikwars game that big just own? Mabye at Ragnablok...

so. much. wasted. money.

war-hammer just feels stupid after learning of brikwars. Even epic level battles like this just feel boring as hell to me. But wow, thats a lot of stuff. And it looks like most of it is really well painted.

Yeah. Except for the guy who it looks like dunked his dudes in orange paint. Seems like something I would do if I ever got into this

Maybe the best paintin method ever. Basecoat your army with your main color, than finish them quickly.

And huge armies might be boring, I, for one, prefer small scale skirmish with a dozen of minis painted well.

I would think they would be Demons of Khorne if they were painted that colour. Unmistakable on the table, but all that red must be boring to paint.

For some years I was a keen Warhammer player and I collected mainly High Elves, but after too many rule edition changes and all that fine and fiddly painting I really do now much prefer Brickwars.
