Araby - Knights

I'd been having problems with the Araby knights coming off their bases - so took the opportunity to rebase them to 40mm squares. I also added some more figures, a base of black knights, a few extra green a yellow to turn the 3 smaller WM bases per unit into 2 larger HoW bases. The blue and red cavalry are different figures, on un-barded horses, for now they will just be knights, but they do give me a medium cavalry option if needed for another army.
All the figures are TB Line.
Medium cavalry nearing completion. 

Figures on painting sticks, nearly completion of the painting.

Ogres - Overview

This is my newest army, so new that I don't even have the figures yet! I backed the Black Gate Miniatures Kickstarter for the second set of their Ogre figures - this went so well it ended up delivering all the units for a full Ogre army. Hopefully these figures will arrive before the end of the year (2017).

Araby - Infantry and Artillery

Image
Araby Guards and Spearmen. The three left hand blocks are GW Warmaster figures. At the back are Guard infantry, waving swords and having many plumes in their headgear. On the Right are Magister Militum spearmen. The back two blocks are from their Arab line, the front block are more heavily armoured, from one of the Persian ranges.  Black Powder weapons - these are all Pendraken Ottomen Turk figures. The front row re cannons, the 3 rows of yellow and blue figures are hand-gunners, then some small mortars. And behind them a pair of heavy seige guns. These figures were initially added to the army for use under the KoW Kingdoms of Men list, which was a very versatile list. Lately these troops are rather orphaned, as under HoW we have gone back to a stripped back Araby list closer to the original WM one.

Evil Men - Overview

This army is built around the Indiegogo campaign run by Yann (aka Barbarian) a few years ago.  The figures are very detailed, and there are some very cool models. Unfortunately it has languished in the lead pile for some time. Partly waiting for inspiration on the painting front and partly on the army list front. I'm sure this army was created to provide proxies for the defenct GW Warmaster Chaos range, but I'm not entirely sure that is how I want to use them.  Painting wise I do quite like the scheme used by Pappa Midnight on LAF by on his Chaos Dwarves that involves a deep red wash to the armour.
