Pokrzyw's Empire Army - Month 1 - Heavy Metal Knights - OWAC IX

"Reiksguard Knights, your Emperor is calling! Death or glory await us, but if we die, we will die as warriors, with swords in hand, and there can be no better death than that." - Kurt Helborg motivation call - from Warhammer:Armies 8th ed

Kurt Helborg - Grand Master of Reiksguard Knights

 Plans for January:

I decided to take one of the most iconic units of Oldhammer Empire - Reiksguards on foot. They are slow, they don't have good offensive or defensive skills, but they look impressive.

Before

Realization:

I started month with huge entushiasm, although after week of paintwork I had two weeks of other activities.. And it means that last week was really busy ;)

My idea was not using contrast nor speedpaints. I forget how hard and time consuming is classic painting without modern cheats..

Final Gallery:

Sorry for quality of photos, taken in very bad light in last evening.. 

Steel, feathers and saches. Impressive drill.

Together with their grand master

Plans for February:

Gift:

This year I decided to prepare and paint one of old gobbos. There are small issues with parcel, but it shall start it's trip to Byron on Monday.
