Warhammer Renaissance armyproject 2024

Inspired, like many before us, by the White Dwarf articles series "A Tale of Four Gamers" (WD 218->);
a couple of Swedish Warhammer enthusiasts recently decided to make a small armychallenge for the coming year. Beginning January 2024, we will be introducing and presenting our armyprojects monthly.

The guidelines are as follows:

2000 points worth of army, for the fan-made Warhammer Renaissance ruleset, presented each month in batches of ~400 points.

We will each start the year by introducing our respective armyprojects and ideas.
The sixth and last month will be for finishing leftovers or extras, summarizing our efforts and presenting our finished armyprojects.

Part 2: The1st Rote of Marienburgerian Ogres, “The Proud”

 This being the first part to paint I made it, model wise the biggest one. My plan was to get over that hump as soon as possible and then coast throughout the challenge. But, I also know myself and my particularities so I know that this army will grow over its confinements too. They all do. 

I’m proud to say that the unit of 12 ogres with great weapons and full command, "The Proud” is done!


The banner is my take on a detail a larger picture. 



From Wiki

"Pride of the spirit is one of the five temptations of the dying man, according to Ars moriendi. Here, demons tempt the dying man with crowns (a medieval allegory to earthly pride) under the disapproving gaze of Mary, Christ and God. Woodblock seven (4a) of eleven, Netherlands, c. 1460."

The banner is made of a tin tube of tomato paste. The folds are formed with a tool with a round end. 

All the models are primed wraithbone and all the basecoats are made with speedpaint/contrast/xpress. highlighted with a white ink mixed with the contrast. Metals are Vallejo Burnt Iron, washed with armypainter dark wash, highlighted and scratched with vallejo game air silver.
