A New Age

So in a couple of months, I'm running a 9th Age tournament here in Dunedin. I've decided to dust off and repaint my Bretonnia, now Kingdom of Equitaine, for the event.

But that requires a lot of work so I doubt that everything will get finished but I'm going to give it my best shot. So here is my first of my Scottish Knights!


And of course, as with everything in life, you get distracted... so here is a unit filler I'm working on for my Sylvan Elves Dryads, I'm really happy with how it's taking shape and there'll be some better close ups of the details when it's done.











Daith, my Wood Elf Warlock





I have also just started D&D with some friends and I decided to make a model for my character, this was a lot of fun to put together and I'm really happy with how he looks.
 One of my friends has fairly recently started a Harlequin army and he wanted me to give him a hand painting them so I've got 6 of them to paint up and this is the first one done.
And here is the first bit of work on my General, mounted on a pegasus for now (I'll eventually get a hippogriff)

Marshal with Lightning Claws




I have been doing some work on my army for my next tournament at 2500 points and today I decided to finish my warlord, a marshal with lightning claws. I am really happy with how he turned out and I also magnetised his backpack and banner, allowing me to change him between infantry and jump infantry. This model is from the sword brethren box and it's such a great model that I didn't have to do any conversions on it. (the rest of the two boxes have been converted into honour guard that I'll eventually finish.)





Next on my list is to paint the sternguard that I have finished magnetising, Chaplain Grimaldus and my terminator knights.

Finally up to Date



My new marshal on bike, just got the basics done, need to add fine detail like Helbrecht

 I decided that no army of knights is a
  complete army without the peasants, so here is the first! An hour later and I have a matching scheme for my crusade.


My full 1850 point Southcon 2016 List, consisting of a Black Templar Combined arms Detachment and a Red Templar (Iron Hands) Armoured Task Force.





























And last but not least, High Marshal Helbrecht, Completed in all his glory granting me a close 2nd place in the Southcon painting competition!










I did however manage to win a trophy at Southcon. On the Saturday night, the older gamers get together to play the annual Wings of Glory Mini-Tournament and I decided to join in. Three German planes later and I take out the Ace of Aces trophy!
