I got 30 dwarves + 1 elf done last month, plus made progress on another 20 dwarves. I'm hoping to come close to matching that again. So for me, it'll be: - Finish the 20 Longbeards I'm partway through, hopefully by the end of next weekend.
- Try to complete 20 Hammerers.
- See if I can get a dwarf character or two painted - probably a Runesmith, but I might do a cannon instead.
- If I'm doing really well on time or want a distraction, finish building my Avatars of War Thunderers - and possibly convert another three as warmachine crew.
If all goes to plan, I'll have 70+ dwarves complete by the end of June. Back in April I had 0 painted.

When assembling those AoW Thunderers, be careful as to how they'll rank up. Positioning is crucial. I discovered that the hard way.

I've built 20 of them already, so it's too late for me! I think they just about work, and better than the AoW slayers.

Yeah, the Slayers aren't much better. Nor the Rangers. Those dang Great Weapons really get in the way!

I've made steady progress on the Longbeards today, though the conveyor-belt painting got tiring, so I did a bit in batches too. 8 of them are finished (save bases), the remaining 12 need beards and gems done, plus the banner/drum. Attachment DeletedAttachment Deleted

What models are you using for your hobgobbos? After a lot of thinking back and forth, I went with games workshop lord of the rings hunter orcs. I think they fit well with foreword aggressive evil look. I will go orange skin tone. But it was close call and I had full set up by alternative in my eBay cart saved. Like your longbeards. Paint look sharp.

What paints are you using for the metallic blue armour? They're looking good so far.

That's the Celestial Blue Chameleon Paint from Green Stuff World. It's a two-tone paint that transitions from Blue to Purple. It's suble, but noticable. I really like them! I want the unit to look like they have resplendent armor.
