Mike's Might Dwarven Throng of Karak Blargh May (698 points)

Well here it is the last day of May and I am not desperately basing some models or trying to finish up one last figure. Instead I finished what I needed for the month by the end of last week and also painted some extras, thanks social distancing!

First unit I finished was 8 dwarf miners with command, boy GW got their moneys worth with these sculpts as they were around forever. I always liked the champion shaking his fist at the enemy. I only wish I had Krudd the Mad Mattock to add with my spare miner to make a 10 man unit. 

After that I finished what I am counting as a unit of long beards, The Dwarf Lords of Legend (and two other guys to make it a 10 man unit with command). This has to be the most eclectically sculpted single box set I have ever had by Citadel. But they work well as long beards. I added a marauder dwarf with a umm.. whistling musical flail and a spare banner from yet more Bugman's rangers.




 While doing these I also had just finished stripping some very classic yet horrible red and green paint from the Anvil Doom, that I then had to start painting. I actually finished this before the units that were actually in my list. I only had one of the guards so a fellow hammer wielding dwarf has stepped in.



 Then because I finally got a baggage cart I had to paint that as well. I love the running dwarf in this unit. This will hopefully be used as extra victory points in a 4th edition game soon.



 And lastly as I was magnetizing all the dwarves so they can be kept on movement trays in my storage drawers (and help keep my son from knocking them over), I had time while the glue set to finish one of my favorites, the dwarf with no name. He will probably be a hero with light armor and pistols for now, but may join the lords of legend at some point.



So and incredibly productive month has left me with everything on my list plus a hero, anvil, and the baggage cart completed for a total of 698 points, . Now on to a stress free June!

  7. Nice to see the lords of legends as longbeards, seems like the veterans are a bunch of old dwarf adventurers from the Karak!
