The first white highlight is done on everything, and I finished the second one on the counters. I'm hoping I didn't screw myself here in not doing the dirt first, I'm going to have to be careful when drybrushing it.





The Sword Masters still need the final white highlight, but they're in home stretch. After that it's just the red, gold and hair. I definitely have to get going on their command, and my next bit of High Elf conversions.

So the red took a little longer than I anticipated, I got have off the models basecoated with it in addition to finishing the gold this past week. It was the red on the Sword Masters that took the longest, I tried to take my time on most of it so I didn't have to go back and touch things up.



Given that and what I have left on this stuff I think the end of February is a more accurate completion date. No work yet on the command for them either.

A late update, but I didn't have much to post on Monday. I finished the red highlights today, all that's left on the Sword Masters is the touch-up and the hair. The counters still need the wood, leather and ground painted though.

We'll be seeing these at Adepticon? They look great.

Thanks guys. They will indeed be at attendance at Adepticon. I doubt I'll have time to finish up much else though, I'm looking at doing some EA and WM terrain next for HAVOC, and perhaps some more TEF if I have time.

I finished up the painting on these guys this week. They're currently getting this first glosscote before I soak them off the strips and get them based. The next you see them they'll be accompanied by some command and all finished up.

I finished the casualty counters last week, although it's taken me another week just to dullcote them. Once I finish the Sword Master command I'll base them up with those guys and the Dwarf Rangers from last year.



Also, it's been too long since I posted any Epic. These guys are for Adepticon this year, I'm looking forward to finally being able to do a SM air-cav list.

When I get around to redoing mine, I'm going to cut off the battle cannon barrel and level it so it doesn't point up at the bizarre angle. It's always bugged me about the gw thawks

Honestly, it makes little sense for a ground attack weapon to be on top of the aircraft. When I do my NEXT marine army (:P), it'll be with the FW THawks I planned to use for this one. At least those are more level, like you say.

@SK, I owe you an e-mail. PM me your address.

I managed to get the first coat of green on two of these guys this past week. My original Bogey Green has been all used up, this other pot is slightly different. I'm hoping after the highlights, details and dullcote are on them though it won't be too noticeable.



Next week I'll finish the third one up and start in on the highlights. Then I have to figure out what the hell I'm painting black/metal on them.



Also, Thundercats Ho!

Yeah they always seemed a little... Um... Viagra induced to me. Really prefer the FW ones now.

I finally finished up my Sword Master command conversions. There's two units worth plus an extra and some Sword Masters for a Hero stand. The musician involved some leg, arm and weapon swaps, and the standard bearer the same plus a head swap and a bunch of putty to fix up the standard.

The Sword Masters are almost done. I just have to finishing painting the bases and then flock them (and fix a few mistakes the macro function showed me). One banner I took from the Warhammer High Elf book, the other is the Alaitoc Craftword rune.
