Very cool! 8)
Nicely painted and the basing really makes the difference!

Thanks :)

I feel we need a pun as we've been lacking them recently, therefore I think they rock ;)

Just thought I'd throw that one out there. See what the impact is.

While those are head and shoulders above the pack, and I believe you have done well with a bare bones beginning, I really think you need to flesh out a few more lines to complete the body of text we are targetting. :D

How's that for a start? 8)

As you well know, I never get involved in such childish nonsense as this.

But, in the interests of social interaction, here is an excerpt from "Captain Bang! King of the river!"

"And so, my vessel was but as is the fastest upon the river, it simply eats the water, as it has big, in size, oars." 8O

OK, I blitzed the GW skeletons and graveguard this weekend, repainting them all. The graveguard are done to match the Mantic revenants already painted so they form another unit of them.

Everything painted up so far (still lots to go!)

I think I'll do the Revenant Cavalry next.

At least 1500 although my 1500 army has included the Revenant cavalry. I've got at least another 100 models to assemble and paint. I think the bulk of BigJim's undead is repainted now (at least what I immediately need for the KoW army).

Very nice Matt! I like the partial flayed flesh areas on the werewolves.
The bright white skulls on the cavalry's shields really looks good!
It stands out against the brown dip color of their armor and is a nice focal point.
All in all, very well done! :hello2 :hello2

The Undead going to be ready for next weekend?

Planning on bringing my Twilight Kin or Dogs of War to next weekend.
What kind of size of forces would we play? 1500pts or 2000pts?
