The Empire Of Man - Blog Posts
Enjoy my meme.
I went to my local gaming store, Source Comics and Games, and also Michael’s crafts today. I’m committing to buying local whenever I can. I don’t want to keep giving Bezos money, and I’m going to try to avoid it for as long as I can. I still give GW plenty of money when they do Made to Order runs and for stuff that is on their web store only. I’m gonna buy all my rank and file from my indie local store.
I’ll reveal more about my empire army as I go along. It’s a little different. I’m doing Sudenburg.
Anyway, here’s my haul.
Skullvane Manse! This is the third of my big trio of Warhammer Fantasy Battles big towers. This came with an option to make the tower into an observatory and at the time I thought that was less cool, but these days I think the observatory sounds pretty rad and I still have the dome so I might be due to make one sticking out of a mountain or something!
The Dreadstone Blight! I put this one on a base which I carved deep drainage ditches into. I was going to fill it in with a clear resin or something to simulate water but I decided the elevation didn’t make a whole lot of sense. I’ll revisit it someday.
The Witchfate Tor! I painted this a long time ago around whenever it came out. It’s due for some touch ups! The “statues” are game pieces from a TSR Hobbies board game called “Dragonstrike” that I bought at a surplus store called Ax Man. Back then I was a smoker with a Redbull habit. Nothing some steady dry brushing and spot detailing couldn’t fix!
I also have the ruined version, the Dreadstone Blight, and another tower whose name escapes me. Not the Deathknell Watch, the other one with the asymmetrical construction that could double as an observatory. Let me know if you know the name!
I kitbashed a Nippon Ronin in the Empire! They’ve taken out some raiding orcs!
