From Kerry T - Waaagh - Goblin Wolf riders (150 points)

Morning, afternoon and evening all

Waaagh (or please substitute your favourite or the most appropriate GW war cry!)

Today is my designated posting day and so for my second post I've painted some Goblin Wolf Riders from the Oathmark figure range. 

The original intention was to have them square off against some dwarves but as usual I set myself too onerous a task and they aren't quite finished

Down by the riverside...

My 28mm Fantasy project is a real slow burn, only really getting added to with each challenge and up to now its growth has largely been confined to dwarves.

These plastic Goblins from Oathmark are somewhat cheap and cheerful, not the greatest of figures but really very quick to paint and very receptive to dry brushing. The 15 wolves probably took me no more than an hour I think. Having said that as the following pictures illustrate they could really have done with some filling beforehand as there is a bit of a join where the two halves are glued together - to be honest though I felt that as these are intended to bulk out the Orc and Goblin army they'd be ok with a quick job and look ok from 4 feet on the tabletop

Painted with the minimum of effort and with good old eighties  GW green

Running away

I presume teef like this are the stuff of a dentist's nightmare

I've been painting quite a bit over the holiday period and initially tried hard to complete the dwarves to accompany them but I quicky realised that the challenge is a marathon and not a sprint, rushing too much to finish an entry makes painting a chore rather than the lovely relaxing time that it should be. Still next Friday's entry is about 80% complete already and consequently being slow to learn, my mind is furtively planning what I can add and cram in to accompany the dwarves now!

In summary then

15 x 28mm Mounted figures @ 10 points = 150 points

From Millsy:

And a very Happy New Year to you to Kerry!

Your wolves and riders are very fine indeed. They have definitely repaid your efforts in dry brushing and look very much the wild pack. I particularly like your mix of metallic colours and the rick red on the shields too. Great stuff and a very handy 150 points in the bank.

Cheers,
Millsy
