#7 Dwarf Army

Here is the glorious Dwarf Army... or should I rather say group?

They have about 750pts with upgrades.

A mere 36 models in the entire army. I have not added anything since the Battle for Skull Pass,

mainly since they are fighting a losing battle. I have occasional luck with them, 

though more often I am the victim.

So alas they have been abandoned and now only look over the other armies in a deep dark drawer.

That concludes the Dwarf army, next up will be either building features or Orc army... Still pondering.

#6 Dwarf Thane

This is like arguing with a wall! With their Gromril armour and shield he forms quite a sturdy dwarf.

A proper leadership makes him a great general,

and with all his attacks he can even dish some damage out as well.

The Good is mostly his potent armour and relatively cheap cost in points.

The Bad aside from his movement not really much.

I enjoyed  painting this thane, with the exception of so few customizable features.

Next week the Entire Dwarf Army!

#5 Dwarf Slayer

Slayers are the crazy dwarfs, they are the ones who had a bit of a mental breakdown.

Forsaking your armour to go in without any? Crazy enough.

The good, the slayer axes can destroy tougher foes easily enough.

Naked fighters look crazier on the battle field.

The bad, well crazy or not forsaking your armour has a downside... Being hit tends to hurt so much more.

This is my unconventional Slayer, well since I always have a few Windhoek Draught caps lying around and ran out of bases, I decided well he can do with a bit more of custom base. Especially since he is a loner and cannot join a regiment made this perfect for what I wanted to do.

The beer driven crazy Slayer.

 Next week the Dwarf Thane.

#4 Dwarf Cannon

As promised here is the Cannon in all it's glory and in one piece for now.

The Dwarf  Cannon is a potent ranged war machine,

manned by a couple of Dwarfs this can give most greenskins fear!

Enchanted with a rune or two this gets even worse or better depending on how you look at it.

The good, the grape shot and range.Facing any army with a low leadership will really come to hate these.

The bad, things can go south real fast!

The cannon has some of most interesting crew members, really enjoy them.

Next week the unconventional Slayer!

#3 Dwarf Miners!

The Dwarf miners are a special choice, and rightfully so!

That is if luck is on your side and they don't get lost.

The Miners have a tunnelling ability, that they appear almost at any table edge.

This makes them great for taking out war machines, mages or any fragile unit.

Their Pick axes count as great weapons, so even though they hit last, hitting with a +2 modifier makes their hits deadly! Units with a high toughness can take quite a beating from these little guys.

On the downside is their appalling speed and that chance of getting lost when being deployed underground / table.

#2 Dwarf Thunderers

The Thunderers, a Dwarf regiment that has quite a range, and with their dwarven rifles do quite an amount of damage. Even at close quarter combat they are fearsome, with a high overall leadership, good equipment and armour they are one Dwarf regiment that tear others apart at range.

They were fun to paint, and I enjoyed the versatility of the units.

#1 Dwarf Warriors

This is my 1st Dwarf army upload and I will start of with the Warriors, they are the bulk of the Dwarf army.

They are well armoured and are quite tough given their size. The smaller base size also has the advantage of squeezing in 5 units vs 4 25mm base units.

The one thing I hate about the Dwarf army in general is their Movement speed,

 that is also the reason why I decided on any other army.

The things I love about the Dwarf warriors, their love for beer, their stature and gear.

These were some of my 1st models I painted, and it shows.

Next week will feature the Dwarf Thunderers!

The weekly showcase announcement!

I start off a few years back with the battle for skull pass, now after quite some time, I have a strong Lizardmen and Orc & Goblin army.

As most of you know painting an army takes time, patience and enough paint and brushes. So far I have painted well over 250 models, and decided I will take all my armies, all the pieces and display them unit type for unit type. When all the unit types are shown I will post an Army pic. The army pic will be of the entire painted army.

Since I only start with the Battle for Skull Pass I decided that would make a good starting point.

For now I have my Dwarf army planned, then the Orcs or Lizardmen, but it will stretch over all those armies and all the models that I have.

PS: I will use a Canon Powershot A490 with no lightbox, I will do minor editing on GIMP, only to remove surroundings, let me know what you think.

Hope you enjoy the posts, all should start next week Monday with the Dwarf Warriors.
