From GeoffT: Ambition, Orc Warlord on Wyvern (45 points)

Hello Challengers,

For the theme of Ambition, I give you an Warhammer Fantasy Orc Warlord on Wyvern.  Orc warlords are bent on conquest, with a driving ambition to become someone in their short brutal lifetimes.

A few months ago I was given a painted 4th edition Warhammer Fantasy Battle army.  Lots of goblins and squigs, but leaderless.  This I purchased from GW, as it is now available again due to the release of the old world.






Points,

One 28mm vehicle (Wyvern) 20 points

One 28mm rider 5 points

Ambition theme 20 points.

Kind Regards

Geoff.

From Millsy:

This model is an old favourite of mine and I have one in my collection with a very similar paint scheme although I have pale skin on the wings. The green just seems to suit a wyvern so well right?

Super brushwork picking out all scales, wrinkles and folds in the skin. You've really nailed the big lizard vibe on this beastie. He'll strike terror into whatever he faces across the table I am sure.

45 more points for your tally mate. I have no idea what you'll do next which is great!

Cheers,
Millsy

  4. An ork and goblin army as a gift?! You're a very lucky fellow Geoff. But you are also very talented with the brush as that Wyvern is fabulous - such an iconic model and done-up so well. Bravo!

  6. Excellent work Geoff and wonderful model. I too have one in my green skin collection. I did mine in red, but love the green of yours.

  7. Well Done! Your entry is a great gust of greens that could have been found between the pages of a 90's issue White Dwarf.
