From DaveS - A Mixed Bag - (41pts)

 Yet more wild west exodus models this time, from a mix of factions.

First of all, we have Papa Trinity.  One of the shapeshifting "Ceruleans", he has taken the form of a priest.





This was one of those models that had been sat, intimidating me since I started painting my Watchers again.  Actually, once I put brush to model, it flowed, and I really enjoyed turning him out.

Continuing the theme of shapeshifters, we have the other Cerulean Vixen, caught mid-shift.



Finally, we have the Cerulean Nightmare, a beast touched by the Hex (This is A BAD THING) and trapped constantly changing forms.



So that should be 2x40mm models, and 1x54mm

After reinforcing the Watchers, it was only fair to give their natural enemies, the Order of the Allshard some love.  This came in the form of Makara, their legendary leader.  As you will see from the size comparison shot (with a model not yet finished) she is HUGE





I don't know what to score her as, but I've called her a 54mm model, although I wonder whether cavalry would be more appropriate.


One of the consequences of the way that the WWX models are packaged, is that sometimes, you want a model that is only available in a posse for another faction.  This was the case with Papa Trinity.  He comes in the "Only God Forgives" posse, which includes, as it's boss, the local Cat House Proprietor.  She interacts with the "Soiled Dove" keyword on models.  So, nothing would do but to pick up all of the "Soiled Doves" which meant buying another 5 posse boxes.  Yes, I have a problem.

So here is the first Soiled Dove, Missy Capelle.  Her sister Rabecca is the model in the scale shot above.



So, that should be 3x40mm and 2x54mm models, for 41pts (or more depending on whether a minion wants to change the score for Makara)

From DaveS - Servants of the Allshard (60pts)

 While I was waiting for the FLGS to restock its Wild West Exodus supply, to continue my Watchers, I decided to start on a second faction for them.  Looking through the models they did have available, and I came across the Order of the Allshard, a group of religious warriors, and, by pure coincidence, one of the factions that are actively opposed to the watchers.  These consist of warriors considered worthy encased in suits of incredibly powerful armour. (But not a Sigmar in sight)  The other half of the faction are more mortal warriors, but since painting them would involve going upstairs to get different coloured paint, they can wait for a little while.


The group shot shows all of the models that I have completed so far.  The four from the Posse box (the leader is coming soon), along with two additional models.








These four are from the "Divine Intervention" Box





And these are the additional "Zain and Oron" models.  Of note, one of them even has one of the Watcher Greys dead on the base, to tie the two forces together.


Finally, I based the two portals that came with the other Posse Set, since I had the stuff out. These will probably get used for several forces,since the Watchers can manipulate portals as well.


So I think that this is 6x10pts (For models about 54mm high, these really are giants).  There was no painting of the portals, just the bases, so I haven't scored those.
