Most impressive host. Love the Rhyfelwr all lined up. Nice work on the purple Parawn too.

Right, excuse me while I get my finger out and continue painting!

Cheers Zed. Yeah many of the models need the odd little tidy up but I tend to feast of famine when it comes to painting an got those twenty rhyfwelr done in five days so shows what I can do when by backside is in the appropriate gear!

Very nice Host - the big amount of Infantry looks impressive, all lined up and ready for battle. I like the variation you´ve done at the different Dragons, very nice. And as JL already said, your Metalics are awesome!

//Edit:
I don´t know how it happened but I totaly forgot to mention your freehands - stunning work, especially on the shields, very well done!

I wish I could claim the freehand on the shields but it's molded on :P you're not the first person to think it was. Thanks though the Dyndraig banner was my first attempt at it an one of the crawdraig.

The metallics are a simple leadbelcher base with a nuln oil wash and then reapply leadbelcher and iron breaker on raised areas to bring them up to a shine

Realy? Wow, wouldn´t have thought that. The metalic shield bosses, yes - but the red ones don´t look like raised areas to me, but nonetheless - great work! The banner is great, especially for the first atempt, I just mentioned the shields because the small size and consistent quality caught my eye and i was awestruck.

Your Metal Recipe sounds simple, but the results speak for themselves, thank you for sharing your workflow!

Yeah it is only noticeable when you look close or at certain angles that they are raised designs. Yeah I know my painting limits so stick to simpler techniques and it to me works the best as I would hate trying to go over complicated lol.

Thanks Ste there's plenty more on the way from kickstarter and with planned conversions/purchases I'll be expanding it further. Though priorities are the prifdynwocor and the wocor I've started
