From BruceR: Vampire Lord to lead and Chaos additions to Warmaster Madness (77 points)

I have continued down my road of Warmaster and 10mm figures.  I have commented previously, I do not have a 3d printer, even though I have been tempted in the past.  I found myself without figures to paint for this project, yet I knew there were a few packs in the post. While waiting I did sit down and put brush to this little Vampire Lord on a Winged Nightmare.

I used a black primer with a dry brush of white before using speed paints to lay down the first coats of color.  I then highlighted with acrylic reds, bone, German grey, and some silver.  I added some pale blue and purple to the Lord for contrast.   I enjoyed how he turned out at this scale.  This is one of my Forest Dragon sculpts.  He is quite large for the 10mm scene so I thought points wise it would be equivalent to a vehicle at 5 points.  Sylvain can adjust if I over shot.  

Some ribs can be seen poking out

For this next submission I'll blame GregB as he suggested Mini Rat figures and to find them, I had to go to a UK printer.  Now shipping and tariffs can make this prohibitive, but when I compared the discounts offered by MGSMiniatures Etsy the higher shipping was equal to what I pay for prints from manufacturers in the States.  Production and shipping took no longer than in country purchases.  

So, bulking up my Dogs of War force are Beorg Bearstruck  and the Bearmen of  Urslo.   Once again amazed at the detail on these printed miniatures.

Here are the WHFB details of this unit from the DOW book if interested and I used as reference.

I went to work with my tried and true method of black primed and blotch painting.  This is done inside out from skin to final details.

1st Warrior Flesh.  2nd Chain mail.  3rd Fur Brown. 4th Flat Earth. 5th Orange Brown. 6th Dark Sand. 7th Dark Vermilion. 8th Legendary Red. 9th Gold. Paints are Army Painter, Vallejo, P3.

The paw on the shield is embossed so I found not too bad to paint, just a steady hand needed.  I did highlight the red paw and plume.

Some grey needed to set out the werebear leader

Close up shows the skin blotch painting leaving
 the black to define features. 
Also, the tiny skull on the warrior's helmet on the left end.
Counted 21 of the little buggers. 

These will give me two units of medium infantry in my DOW force for Adepticon.  

I'm off to sunny California for 10 days so when you read this I should be in warmer weather.  Having said this, we experienced global warming these past few days in the North with temps in the 50's F in February.  Unusual.  

Loki enjoyed the weather for our walk.  Some runner passed me in shorts and T-shirt.  Crazy.

A couple of action shots of my crew's game this past Sunday, with my forces of DOW and Empire vs Vampire Counts and Greenskins.  Always nice to get the figures out.

On to the points.

More in a couple of weeks.  Be safe and sane.

=====================

Sylvain: I said this before, but it still amazes me how your 10mm figurines are so detailed that they look like 28mm models. I agree with your calculation except that a 10mm vehicle is worth 6 points, not 5. So a total of 77 points for you. Génial!
