Thanks for the comments, I am back with a small update. I haven't managed to get a great deal done due to a load of real life trouble, but on the plus side it has been my birthday and I got some cool stuff
I got a few generous gifts to add to my mountain of unpainted Chaos Dwarfs
Earthshaker pressie
This is a seriously beautiful book! I have been eyeing it up for a while
My big bags of Chaos Dwarfs, I have about 30 of the Axemen, Blunders & Hobgoblins with some war machines and Bull Centaurs. I have literally just started putting the first paint on these. Looking forward to them
As for the WIP, I got the following done on my banners. I have decided I am not too keen on metallic paint on my banners from previous ones I have done so I had a first attempt at some NMM. I think my understanding of the reflections is not quite right but I'm generally quite pleased with them. The White Lion banner is the one giving me the most trouble. I am not really sure what to do with the rest of it so any c&c is welcome Perhaps some pattern in the white area?
My indecisiveness has also delayed my progress
In the meantime I started on my Wight King BSB conversion. I love the Wight King model but didn't really need another foot one (I have Krell) so I thought I would combine it with one of the Black Knight models and the upgrade sprue banner
After my crappy week I also treated myself to some metal night goblins. These were the first models I ever bought, I really like them. My cousin sold the regiment I used to own of them when I was on a hobby break so I have been wanting to replace these. I think I will make some unit fillers out of them
Will hopefully have some more progress shortly, it was refreshing to start painting something new even if I haven't finished my banners
