Another miniature I've had for over 20 years. I was never that keen on the King Alrik miniature and I never use special characters so this was an easy conversion. Not sure what happened to Alrik - he wasn't in the box of dwarves; he may have ended up on evilbay somewhere in the distant past.
So this is Dwarf King Skarrengrim. One of the leaders of the twin holds of Stannaheim and Zimmerpeak. Born aloft on his shield-bearers.
Obviously the shield-bearers don't appear in 3rd edition, but I reckon the rules and points can be ported across without any changes; they're pretty simple and not terribly powerful.
Stannaheim and Zimmerpeak are relatively recent dwarf-holds, founded by refugees from Karak Eight Peaks around the time of the fall of the city in -513IC. Skarrengrim can trace his lineage back to the royal houses of that magnificent but doomed metropolis.
King Skarrengrim - Level 25 Hero - Heavy Armour, 2 Handed Weapon, Shield-bearers - 263 points.
Well, that's it for another OWAC. I lost a lot of motivation for this one part way through May and never really got going again! I still have a chunk of Dwarf minis left to paint, maybe they'll make it into a future OWAC but for next year I reckon I'll return to 40K. Or epic 40K. Or maybe BFG.
Or Bloodbowl...
Well done in completing the challenge sir
ReplyDeleteIt's so tough when the motivation leaves, so congratulations on pushing through and completing! Lovely model to finish on too 💖
ReplyDeleteSometimes completing the OWAC still with minis left over for future projects is even more of a win! I love the lore to go with a mini you've had for such a long time. A very apt choice for an OWAC leader. Nice job and congratulations again :)
ReplyDeleteThat's a very impressive general to finish with. Well done on making it to the end of another OWAC.
ReplyDeleteA fun mini and a great way to wrap up the season. Sorry to hear that the motivation didn’t quite last until the end-but then again, your start was so explosive that it’s no wonder. This has been a great project regardless, congratulations!
