Bretonnia - Knights of the Realm

Here we come to a group of eight knights made by "Games-Workshop" (www.games-workshop.com) for the now discontinued faction of the Bretonnians.
I got one of the last packages sold by Games Workshop and added them to my Empire army as a form of strong cavalry unit.
First I thought about painting these guys in a uniform way so they would fit in better with my army but then I realised that all of them are supposedly bretonnian nobles with their own banner and land. From this I came to the conclusion that I had to paint each and every one of them in a unique way.
Well, it was a lot of work but in the end it worked out really well.
(man I am tired, just used "well" and "work" two times in a short sentence....)

Anyway without further ado, here are the pictures:

They look really cool. :-)

Silver Tower 14 - Excelsior Warpriest & Gryph Hound

Here comes the Warpriest and his loyal Gryph Hound out of the "Silver Tower - Warhammer Quest" set made by "Games Workshop" (www.games-workshop.com).

Here I really went off the beaten path because I wanted to make sure that all these units are compatible with the Age of Sigmar armies I already have. A black warpriest just did not fit my Empire army and so I gave him a big beard, filed off part of his nose and turned him into a white guy. Now he fits the rest of my arms.

First I wasn´t sure if the beard would work. I do not have much experience with these kind of modifications, but hey in the end it looks as if the beard should have been there all along. :-)

Empire - Free Company

Und hier eine der Einheiten die mir wiedermal richtig Spaß bei Bau und Bemalung gemacht haben. :-)
Die "Free Company" von Games-Workshop (www.games-workshop.com).

Ich habe hier meiner Phantasie freien Lauf gelassen und diesen Bausatz um einige der übriggebliebenen Teile meiner Großschwerter und Chaos Marauder erweitert.
Daraus ergab sich nun, wie ihr gleich sehen werdet, eine sehr wilde Schar von bewaffneten Bürgern,  professionellen Söldnern, alten Veteranen und selbsternannten Hexenjägern.

Und hier noch einige Einzelbilder der "besten" Modelle. Werde diese sicherlich auch für Mordheim ähnliche Spiele verwenden.

Draco "Professional" Blutaxt

Crazy Edward

Mike "The Hunter" Ward

Tarek Headhunter

Erich "old Man" Heidenreich

Hab gerade noch eine der letzten Packungen dieser "Free Company" bekommen. Games-Workshop wird sie in Zukunft nicht mehr führen...

Wollte auch noch mal Ordensritter und Silberhelme bauen und bemalen, aber die sind inzwischen schon aus dem Sortiment.

Empire State Handgunners

Und nun zum bis dato letzten Teil meiner Armee des Imperiums, die imperialen Musketenschützen.
Wie immer auch diese von "games-workshop" (https://www.games-workshop.com/en-GB/Empire-State-Handgunners).

Da diese, genau wie meine Infanteristen aus einer großen Kollektion kommen waren weniger Bauoptionen dabei.
