My Dragon Rampant

[Ochoin]

These 4 trolls join my wizard as the start of a Dragon Rampant force.
They are Dark Alliance figures.
I've never painted Fantasy before & I have enjoyed doing this.

Additionally, I've been experimenting with Citadel contrast paint. It works well.







Next up is a unit of 12 Half-orc pikemen.

Looks nice! Well, how a troll could look nice. Maybe his mom would use those words. Anyhow. I like how you painted them. Looking forward to see your pike-orcs!

[sberry]

These trolls look splendid!
But I sincerely hope that the wizard has a tight control over them, otherwise he might get trampled in a troll-stampede. He looks so tiny by comparison...

[Santi Pérez]

You've painted those trolls beautifully, Donald.

I really feel sorry for that knight in the last picture in what seems to be the last fight of his life.

Don't be. That is the nice thing about the rules for Dragon Rampant, he stands just as good a chance as the troll.

Lovely figures.

Progress has been swift so far - 5 units completed:


Wargs without riders:



And with:



Pikes:



The scary 'Dark Riders':



And Trolls:



Still a few units to complete.
The wizard is the current leader but I'm also working on a Saruman-figure & warg-rider escort to boss the army.

They look good! And nice inspiration for me when I start painting mine.

Gosh, Suso. I don't think I've ever been an inspiration before.

cheers, donald

It's great to see the project progressing at a good pace, Donald.

The paintjob on all these figures is excellent, but my favorites are still the trolls. They look so utterly mean - I love them!

[MABO]

Impressive armies and also a very good groundwork!

Great Lord of the Rings stuff, quite a jump from the historical ventures. First it's a Wizard and then next thing you know...

[Ochoin]

Owen, I've powered thru the Fantasy force.

I have 7 units of Saruman's army finished. I need missile troops (not in plastic) so I've commissioned a unit of Half-orc crossbowmen. That'll be enough for a viable force.

Next time you're up (if the cyclone leaves us alone), there's a game waiting for you.

Haha, I hope the winds of Mordor spare you and your forces emerge to do battle for that next time!
