Rhun has always been by far my favorite themed army, i finished painting Amdur, a 2nd warband of easterlings and 2 new unit conversions.
I cant thank enough for all the awesome comments and support that i have been getting for those conversions. Sadly time is my enemy and i cant finish all that i have in mind. Anyway slowly some shall be done
First on the list are the blade dancers that i had made 1 long ago but now finished them by adding 2 more. I wanted to give the feeling of an elite mysterious fighter to match a more of a berserker profile but more based on fighting skills than strength.
I know my poor sculpting skills dont do much justice on the hoods and thic affects on painting aswell
Next up are the easterling tribesmen. Inspired from Tolkiens quote ''Fierce bearded men with axes from the east'' from pelennor fields. I felt like they had to be more barbaric and brutal than the rest of the easterling warriors that fight in formations and phalanxes.
I plan to make another 3 of them and a command (captain and banner)
Finally finished Amdur, took me a while as i found the mounted versions had many undercuts and needed a lot of cleaning before actualy painting.
For the moment i am testing this half black/red clothing and hope to get it better in time. I plan using it on all easterling heroes.
Also i tried giving him a magic effect on his blade as i like the idea of bladewrath from the easterling war priest.
Last is the 2nd easterling warband i finally finished painting. Of course i need to convert a lot pikemen as 2 per box is really good for a phalanx based army. I am still trying to learn how to paint gems (on the shields) but my attempts have not been so good so far
Now i am working on some Kataphrakts and then a warband of archers.
Just started assembling them so i will upload some wip photos very soon.
