Blog Chicken Lips Warhammer Armies

Obviously the bringer of memes, Star Wars, Samurai Jack and anti-AoS content is exempted... and also those boasting a platinum trophy in Horizon Zero Dawn.

 

Impressive collection!

 

Just went back and started looking through your entire thread for the first time... it was an eye-opening experience

You have an amazing collection!

My favorites that stand out so far (I have only made it through the first 11 pages, need to take a break ):

Your wood elves. I love the dynamic poses of your treemen with their giant wooden spears. And the way you modelled each of the warhawk riders so that they are dive-bombing their enemies is amazing! I especially like the warhawk riders with the black hair, they looked incredibly feral and ready for a fight.

Your dwarfs. Truly huge and inspiring collection. SO MANY BEARDS!

And last thing (a small one) is the unit fillers you have for a few of your empire units. I liked the extra touch, adds quite a bit of detail to a horde of infantry without buying all those extra models!!

 

Thanks so much Warden! That really inspires me to post more work! I'm glad you like them! I try to get really detailed with them but it doesn't always pick up on camera. I'm glad that you saw some of those nuances!

I hope you continue to enjoy the rest of my armies!

As far as the unit fillers go, I try to keep them to a minimum as much as possible, but they do add a nice dynamic to the group overall. Whenever I make one, I usually try to have an alternate use for them in mind, like playing capture the flag, or alternatively serve as a terrain feature, like a Sorcerer's Portal when I'm not using that particular unit.

I still have a box FULL of sprues that I haven't even touched yet (mostly TK and O&G). Once I work my way through the majority of those, I'll probably start making a lot of terrain features, unit fillers and alternate table tops to play on. It's enough to keep my 8th edition hobby going for years to come!

 

Noooo, that not true it's impossible !!

 

NOOOOOOOO!


Edit: Also finished your blog again, cool dark elves!

 

Thanks so much! More to come soon! Wardancers!

 

Making progress...but it's slow going.

 

Slow moving progress is still progress... and it's looking great!

 

Looks good from afar, get us some close ups!

 

I've actually put a temporary hold on the Wardancers right now while I work on a project for a friend. This is a "thank you" for helping me get my foot in with a new job. He plays VC.

 

Sounds like a good friend (on both your parts)!

 

Well, I finally managed to finish this project! This has to be the most delicate model I've ever worked on! And slightly top-heavy. Does anyone have any suggestions for transporting a single model like this? (It's quite big.)

 

Very nice. It turned out very well.

Unfortunately I have no idea how you would safely transport such a large and fragile model.

 

Yeah, I'm still scratching my head over that.

 

Anywho, on to something that more people here might find a little more interesting...
