PaulD's final presentation of what I daubed paint over this Spring for the Old World army Challenge

Here's a few pictures of my meager efforts of applying paint to a few miniatures as part of the Old World Army Challenge to provide me with additions to my amazonian army, which didn't get off to particularly good start, as I was originally painting lizardmen!

Check out the early posts for details of how I got here.  I hope you enjoy the journey as much as I did?

Paul / Golgfag1 












PS. Thanks to all the others who took part, seeing your efforts, encourged me to do more than I intended, especially to Mr Iannick for all the boring admin stuff.

Paul D/ Golgfag1's April's contingent - Heroes and Wizards (1186 points)

March found me with plenty of time on my hands to plough on with my efforts to give Mr Beales a run for his money, all due to Covid19, inclement weather and having to take holiday entitlement - found me completing my initial intentions, thus I posted a good week in advance of the end of the month.  Following the March post and a little light hearted banter between myself and Mr Beale, I decided rather than take a break over April, I'd push on with the next contingent of wizards and Heroes and then go off and do something else. 

 First up, a Colossal Lord lord from Grenadier  Miniatures  - Cassandra https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~tpope/sol/grenadier/images/3304.jpg 


 I wasn't sure on the colour schemce so plumbed for classic Wonder woman, be it Linda Carter or Gal Gadot - red, white and blue, where I could, with bronze armour (vambrace and pauldrons) and a chainlink hauberk. I apologies now - the miniature is from a time when attitudes were different, but I'm not a revisionist and accept it for what it is.





Quite happy with the way she turned out, will be using her as a giantess for a steady two hundred points.

Next up a few low level wizards, Original Citadel C series Sisterhood novices/Initates, classing these as Warhammer third edition, level fives' at sixty points each - for three hundred points.


Next up a Sisterhood Mage, I'll class her as a level fifteen wizard for one hundred and fifty five points.

The mother Samatha figure's rather nice, so I'll run for another level fifteen wizard for another one hundred and fifty five points.


 I've also dabbed a little paint over four nobles, I don't have enough of these to form a regiment so will be using them as champions for my other units at thirty points each, giving me another hundred and twenty points.



Last, but by no means least, the Goddess Rigg, now I'll be honest I consider this figure the worst of the C series Amazonian figures and thus I'm not inclined to use it as such, so am simply going to class it as a female ogre champion, for a minimal two and fifty six points (I intend to expand this idea latter in the challenge, with a contingent of female ogres!).

Finally a group shot all varnished and based to match the previous months contingents.

Next month - cavalry and beasties
