A bit of time of this weekend resulted in these two from White Knight

The daughters of Graf Weisz von Schnee. Katarin & Kristin.

 Katarin

 Kristin

I struggled for while trying to get a nice shading to the yellow skirt and ended up adding purple to the mix seeing as it's a complimentary colour and luckily it turned out great.

Another area I enjoyed was Kristin's leather tunic, playing around with various washes.

Dwarf Zweihanders from White Knight are done. They dragged out a bit longer than I would have liked but at least the unit is complete and I can move on to something else now. 

I used a halfling, again from White Knight for the musician as I didn't really like the bagpipes dwarf from the Zweihanders command set, I think he still fits in though.

I was looking over another blog and saw an old Marauder advert for their ogres and just had to include this one in the unit. The barrel is from my good friend Alebelly Cragfist. In his frustration of not being able to find decent barrels he commissioned this one and got them cast.

And the completed unit. A front rank of seven is quickly becoming a favourite of mine. I used to stick religiously to five so that I'd get four ranks and a nice round number. Must be an age thing..

I've been on a slight detour recently ever since the local GW store convinced me to enter their Armies on Parade. That was 2 weeks ago and the deadline was today. There were quite a few late nights this week but I managed to get most of what I wanted done.
3 fanatics didn't make it, nor a second unit of archers but I think I've entered enough units to call it an army.
So just before I took them down to the store I had 10 minutes to take some pictures...

When I get them back after the week of voting I'll try to get an army shot done.

Cheers,
DB

Here are the pictures at night time, I'm unsure if it really made a difference...
