Tom's Chaos Dwarfs - Month three. A marching 364 points

Greetings! It is March and marching needs feet. I painted many pairs of stomping feet.

Here's a quick guide, hastily cobbled together #nocropscreenshot

(OWAC Overlord Iannick - one of these will be winging it's way to you as tribute)

Begin:

Scales red, drybrush white/yellow on top

Red. Dark red

Black. White lava base. Blue bag. Purple highlight

Green

Shoes. Green again

Eyes. Teeth

Orange lava. Orange and yellow highlight

Grass

Skin

Finished. Poor photo though! 

Hmm, so maybe there's a couple of these are out of painting order, but you get the idea! I've not photoed the same one throughout, which is a bit of a shame, but ho well... They could be neater as always, but overall I'm very happy with them. Most especially with the faded spike.
I think they look very good together.

Here's their group shot:

And their timestamp. Although I did manage to paint 9(!) more than I photo'd.

Maybe next week I might paint another warrior command so that I can split this unit in to one unit of 12, and one unit of 16...

And a quick pic of the command on their own, as befitting their rank:

Music maestro!

I liked painting the bull trumpet, but I didn't get on with the guys face. I might well add shields to the front rack (I think if I added them to everyone, they wouldn't rank up).

Do you have a flaaag?

He came together pretty well. I like his nose and snaggletooth.

Leaders gonna lead.

Green sword for that magical poison yo.

I was disappointed with how his beard came out - too heavy a drybrush. If I was to do it again, I'd brush the highlights on individually. However, he is finished.

EXTRAS!
Finally finished the Bull Centaurs with these two additions:

And here's the full herd in all their terrible glory!

I finally got round to adding shields to the centaurs. I started off painting a lava type thing on the red background, and then found the stash of decals I had luckily (super cheaply!) purchased from eBay a year ago. Out of all of them, I pumped for the one closest resembling a bull.
In hindsight I'd change my mind and go for maybe a blue background with a plain skull.
Nevermind - they are "finished, not perfect", and I've used the plain skull now for the regular troops.

FINISHED NOT PERFECT.

The best advice I ever came across. Many thanks to the Oldhammer facebook community for posting about this, many years ago. I'm sorry, but I've forgotten the OP's name, but I'm sure it's been shared around long before I saw it :)

Last time I signed off with a wind reference...
The winds have blown right indeed.
Flying in on the Winds of Magic comes this fresh Chaos Dwarf Sorcerer on a terrifying Lamassu. Behold!

Here's a WIP pic I took midway which shows him off quite well :)

Here's his timestamp:

I love him!
I think the purple/red scheme worked out really well for the Lamassu.
I like the blue on the bobble on top of the Big Hat.
Both were painted really quite quickly, as the enthusiasm for them remained high during painting and I was able to do a longer sitting each time I set to.

If I were to change anything, I'd swap out his moustache ties for red ones (I also think I've left one out) , and I think that's about it! He's glued together using Gorilla two-part epoxy resin glue, and the head is pinned. The rider is pinned into the body like the Bull Taurus, but they're both not glued on as yet. Interchangeable yo, although to be honest, I'm not sure why I don't just glue them in. Ha!

As ever, the standards for everything were printed off here: linky

This brings my March(ing) efforts to a close - not least because I feel the ground shaking!

Ahem.
