So that is it so far. Obviously i need to do the bases etc. I hope to update it throughout the week.

Thanks

Matt xx

Alright then today the 29/03/2012 i decided to upload a few more photos. Its taking me a long time to do these and i keep being sidetracked etc. So sorry about that.

Anyway i have the infantry sheilded and based but still missing their tuffts. I still have all the cavalry yet to do (hopefully soon-ish).

1st pic is W.I.P Erkenbrand mounted:

Image

2nd pic is a complete Grimbold but still have to do the base:

Image

3rd pic is some troops - notice the simple sword to spear conversions:

Image

4th pic is the last of the Redshields although their shields aren't done yet:

Image

I hope to have the army finished in a week or so. Whish me luck. Peace xx

From the newest update I find the Erkenbrand the best lookin. Althought I think you should try to highlight a few elements more - try red till beached bone, and gold till silver - simple but effective. But still he looks very nice, I would love to see him finished :-D
Grimbold still needs some more work I guess - try to blend black and white for the black clothes - now it looks like codex gray direclty on black, but IMO shoud be done more smooth. The same goes for brown - try some midtones, also try to hightlght it even more - vomit brown and maybe even beached bone, or graveyard earth. Now it looks kinda to plain for me :-D
But anyway, sorry, maybe I'm bein to harsh, but i think the more pracise the better :) . Rest looks nice, althought what i wrote above apply.
