The Monthly Vow - September

Somewhat belated reporting but I managed to complete my Paingiver Beast Handlers and Cyclops Savage. Pics to follow shortly.

Just my Cataphract Inindiarii to go and I'm finally ready to field a small Hordes army!

Belated pics of the rest of September's vow.

Nice ones!
It'd be nice to see a little less flat colours, mainly the gold and reds, but these models are quite cool! I like the feel you've gone for. Are they warmahordes guys?

Yeah, they're Skorne guys from Hordes. What do you mean by flat colours?

Nice :-)
Oh, meant that the Gold could do with a shade wash and a highlight, just to give it more depth. And compared to your blues, the red fabric doesn't look quite as highlighted. it is likely because the red you used to highlight is closer to the base colour than.the blue is to its base colour.
Edit.
You might be able to hit the middle of the red fabric with a shade,it might just bring the base colour down a tad, which is all it take to make the.highlights pop.
:-D that being said they still look good as they are!

Ah, right. I see what you mean. The red (Army Painter Dragon Red) does have a shade (Carroburg Crimson) with highlights of Dragon Red, Evil Sunz Scarlet and Wild Rider Red but I think the combination of my daylight lamp and the flash from the camera may have washed out the highlights a bit on the photos. They are a bit more pronounced in the 'flesh'. I didn't really highlight the gold too much though, I must admit so I may well put a final highlight on there.

Thanks for the comments and advice.

Pesky camera flash!
That certainly is quite a few layers! No problems at all :-)
