Here's a WIP pic:

Here's a unit of 40 Swordsmen. They are supposed to be one of the units of renown out of the Empire Uniforms and Heraldry book. I forgot their name. My entire army is from Middenheim so the primary colors are Blue and White. There are a few other units "on loan" from neighboring provinces, such as the Hochland Handgunners and those from some "Southern" province.

Here are my Knights of the White Wolf (17 + Grand Master + Warrior Priest of Ulric):

I went for more of a "cold blue steel" look for them. I think it shows up better in real life than in the pics.

My unit of Reiksguard Knights. I kit-bashed these together from several kits. The Empire Generals kit, Demigryph kit, and Luminark horses.

I did each one separately before I assembled them, but I started with Temple Guard Blue, then a wash of Drakenhof Nightshade, then a drybrush of Temple Guard Blue, then a drybrush of a light blue edge paint that GW came out with a little while back, and finally a light drybrush of Ulthuan Grey. Each drybrush layer I layed on lighter and lighter until I finally was barely hitting it at all, focusing more and more toward the center.

That is some impressive dry brushing technique. I can never get dry brushing to look right over a flat smooth area; you obviously do not suffer from the same problem. Kudos!

This is my kit-bashed, mounted Captain BSB. He took some work. The banner is taken from the O&G BSB banner but I had to take a Dremel tool and sand the skills and other Orcish things off of it as well as drill some holes through it so that it'd appear to be all battle-worn. After lots of sanding, trimming, pinning and green stuff, I got this result:

I hope you like him!

Wow... that was quite the laborious project. Congrats on sticking with it and achieving such a great result.

Thank you so much! A lot of time and effort went into these and it's so nice to see that people appreciate it!
