Nice guide. I may make some myself, but I already have 2c's of metals. Your black guards really are good.

Some very nice conversion, good money saver on the ballista, and nice MoS painting. :)

This is really a fun looking army. Nice variety and choices and well done conversions!

Let us know how it played when you have a chance.

In the local GW store I could continued the works on my Black Guards, and Warg Riders.
I gave a skull for the captain, so then now its easy to recognize him. I used yellow grass with a little green and burnt grass.

I finished four of my riders. Before that they were also painted, but just with a messy drybrush painting. Now I painted details, and I finished the job with a good wash.

My warg army getting bigger :)
Next time I will finish Sharku also.

Lovely , coherent batch you have there. Very netural climax of whole force, at once you can feel that they are united army :) As for pictures I recomend to change background, white one doesn't work well when you want to show paintwork ;)

That's a really nice batch of minis.
I really like how you have kept some elements in all of the units, so that it looks as one army.
And you are one of the very few people that has painted blue skin that I actually like.

You also have a very nice ballista, but I would give it a better base.

As for the background, you should really use something else, maybe try something like this.

I use them quite a lot and I do like the result. (if you want to, I can make one in whatever colour you like.)

Looking forward to the next update.

Yes, indeed. Well, if I travel back to home once, I will get some color background maybe.
