I tried to look for it, found nothing. If you have a link please do post it, I am always open to draw inspiration from others' work.SpellArcher wrote: ↑Fri Sep 22, 2023 12:20 pm Bravo MoN, I love armies of big guys! Somewhere on the site there's a beautiful army of Wolfen. This looks fascinating and good to see the Monsters which often get omitted from harshly competitve lists. Is the unit of four on the right Maneaters? I especially like the Rhinox.
Cheers Rod!Prince of Spires wrote: ↑Mon Sep 25, 2023 2:54 pm They look great! I love OK as an army. They have so much individuality. And the monsters are lovely as well.
For the moment it feels quicker. Less detailed and also using the airbrush.Prince of Spires wrote: ↑Tue Sep 26, 2023 2:16 pm Nice! It looks like you're making fairly good progress. Are they quicker to paint than elves or does it not matter?
That's not kit bashed, it is the official model.SpellArcher wrote: ↑Wed Oct 18, 2023 9:19 am So a few questions and observations:
1) I love the kitbashed standard on the Thundertusk. It makes an already dominating model even taller!
No, it's another type of cavalry, still a special, it was published in a White Dwarf. Not in the army list hence hence not 100% official, some tournaments don't accept it. The Rhinox beats the shit out of the mournfang as a monstrous steed and it has 4 wounds. It is not a mount for characters, but you can have a unit of a single model which is the champion. ~125 points, 4 wounds, T5 and it packs 9 S5 attacks (10 if you equip him with additional hand weapons) + D3 impact S5 woundsSpellArcher wrote: ↑Wed Oct 18, 2023 9:19 am 2) Does the Rhinox count as a Mournfang and join that unit?
Unfortunately I should play 3-4K points to be able to field all of them!SpellArcher wrote: ↑Wed Oct 18, 2023 9:19 am 3) The Monsters are generally regarded as a friendly choice. Double Ironblaster less so, it's a nice balance.
Haven't decided yet, probably split between the Bulls and the Ironguts. I am still undecided wrt the frontage too. 3 is quite cheeky because it allows the characters to fight but not take attacks at least for one turn.SpellArcher wrote: ↑Wed Oct 18, 2023 9:19 am4) Will the characters all go in the Ironguts say, or be spread out around the units?
I know and they aren't in any of my yet untested builds. Just got the chance to have the model cheap and then wanted to try to make a clone of it. Not in a hurry to paint them, they'll definitely be the last I do.SpellArcher wrote: ↑Wed Oct 18, 2023 9:19 am 5) Gorgers aren't popular but ambushing adds a nice tactical dimension.
My bad!
The Rhinox sounds like a lot of fun.
I know they're not close to being finished but it looks like you've already done a lot of work there.MasterOfNone wrote: ↑Fri Oct 20, 2023 7:57 pm I have been painting for a while without posting updates.
I like it. It creates both distinctive units and a coherent army. Totally agree!Prince of Spires wrote: ↑Mon Nov 20, 2023 2:59 pm There is something about Ogres that screams "Striped Pants!"
Thank you kindly, although I would not consider fielding this army in the current state.Prince of Spires wrote: ↑Mon Nov 20, 2023 2:59 pm The whole is progressing nicely. It's already better than some painted armies out there.
They look great! Might look into a pair for myself...Prince of Spires wrote: ↑Mon Nov 20, 2023 2:59 pm There is something about Ogres that screams "Striped Pants!"
Let us know when it gets a test run. Seeing it in action would be great.MasterOfNone wrote: ↑Wed Nov 22, 2023 6:45 pm Thank you kindly, although I would not consider fielding this army in the current state.
It needs much more work...
As well you should be. Lovely detail work.
