scottshoemaker Posted August 22, 2019 Report Share Posted August 22, 2019 Bashed together an Untamed Beasts warband Still WIP. Using this as a platform to try some Contrast Paints. 1. Snakebite Leather is the bees knees 2. Darkoath Flesh is great for bronzed barbarians 3.Cygor Brown is super dark, too much so out of the pot. Bonus points if you can ID the bits. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestRider Posted August 22, 2019 Report Share Posted August 22, 2019 In some ways, I actually like that better than the official Untamed Beasts Models. Some of them really take the theme a bit too far, while you've kept it noticeable, but not overwhelming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottshoemaker Posted August 22, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2019 Most importantly, I scabbed them together from leftovers I already had 😀 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Trainer Posted August 22, 2019 Report Share Posted August 22, 2019 So does Warcry require new models? I didn't see a Dark Elf faction (other than Sisters of Khaine). I have to admit, this has me interested in dabbling in AoS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are six Factions with all-new Models, and then another 9 that use existing Models. The selection for all the Factions is pretty limited, but there are still plenty of cool options. And yeah, Daughters of Khaine are the only Dark Elf Faction. I got the card pack for them, and they look really cool. Planning on picking up Models once my bank account recovers from OFCC. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other factions represented by the card packs are like scouting parties, and the rest don't come to the chaos places, but you can always proxy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Glacius Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 They also have two undead factions, flesh eaters, and then skellies. I'll probably need to pick those up as I have scores of undead and it would be fun to run those. By the way, has anyone found a good review of Warcry anywhere? I have the rules but haven't found time to go through them yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guerilla Miniatures has some good videos on the game too on YouTube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottshoemaker Posted August 26, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2019 Back to sharing warbands... This was a fun project, I scabbed the builds together, barely bothered with mold lines and cleanup, and did a quick and dirty paintjob. I got to play with some new techniques, and give a few a things a try. Bashed Beasts fin- 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Glacius Posted August 26, 2019 Report Share Posted August 26, 2019 Nicely done. I need to go through my DoK models and see which ones I can make for the warband. The goblin warband looks like of fun too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRider Posted August 26, 2019 Report Share Posted August 26, 2019 What did you use for the metal? The helmet on the dude with the whip and knife looks particularly awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The helmet on the dude with the whip and knife looks particularly awesome. Mostly just mucking about- I start with the brightest silver I have. (Vallejo Steel) I then wash it with black ink. I then mix Vallejo Black glaze with Black ink and put on heavily. Usually Im done there, but this time I messed with Contrast medium with black, and thinned matte medium with black. Basically Each layer of black is to achieve a different effect. One gets the deep crannies, another tints the metal, the next would add pooled black, etc. The other thing to note is I worked wet with all of it this time, so I could blend as need and wiper it away for instant edge highlight. Whats not showing up in the pics is the thinned flesh wash after the black was dry. I has intended to get a slightly rusty patina, but it was more like a slight bronzing, it really warmed the metal to compliment the overall theme of BROWN. This was mostly a speed project, so there are some things that are a bit too sloppy, but I really don't care for this project. I have too much half finished stuff already, so I wanted to see if I could be ahead of the curve on this one. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
