After some delay they're done! more ogres with great weapons to be used as maneaters or ogres with great weapons. Now on to the good bits, the pictures!
Next up are the characters, the tyrant and his soothsayer. Cheers!

Well well well, seems like I finally bit off more than I could chew this month. At least it seems like I'm not the only one. Time slipped away from me and I only managed to paint a regiment of savage orcs, half of what I wanted to paint this month.
Unlike my previous units of identical monopose orcs and goblins, this is one quite the mix of models. It is mainly made up of the bulky 6th edition savage orcs, but with some 4th and even 3rd edition savage orcs here and there.
Talk about scale creep! |
I'm glad I got at least something painted this month, even if it wasn't a full 400 points. Hopefully I can make up for it in the end. Until next time!
April points total:
Characters
- Savage Orc Champion (potion of strength) - 54 pts
Regiments
- 19 Savage Orcs (additional hand weapons, banner of might) - 201 pts
Total: 255 pts

I love beastmaster units! I really don’t like sabertooth tigers and the Empire is a place where the forests and mountains have plenty of bears but, praise Sigmar, no sabertooth tigers!
Ok, this month passed by really fast! In the end I manage to finish this months goal; a unit of 11 Slaanesh warriors and a sorcerer. The miniatures were a pleasure (I have already succumb to the dark lord…) to paint; some of my favorites models from the 80s. For April I´m going to paint up 12 steeds of Slaanesh, a bit of a stretch as I start a new job and move to a different city, fingers crossed!
This month was a real doozy! I painted like an absolute madman during the Easter holiday just to make it this month. Somehow I managed it though, and I'm very pleased with this month's contribution.
I started off the month by painting a block of 20 Orcs, all monopose plastics from 3rd edition. This time I even remembered their shields! I will run these as big 'uns just to pump up their points a bit.
I had only a week left of the month when I started my giant. I thought he would paint up quickly but the 6th edition sculpt has a lot of detail and I spent way too long painting his skin.
So when I had painted the orcs and the giant I had a total of 360 points. 40 points short of 400! This would not do! So while the giant was still drying I spent the last hours of the last day quickly painting a squig herder and his 3 squigs. Even though I was rushing I still like how the squigs came out, the herder himself leaves a bit to be desired though but oh well.
This was truly a challenging month, but I'm happy I made it and I don't plan on slowing down yet! Until next time!
