Very nice! Almost makes me want to break out my minis and give it another try.

Almost.

There's not enough time in the day to keep up with all my hobbies. Sigh...

I think they look pretty awesome, actually. The Knight theme is awesome; especially with Joan of Arc. XD

Yeah I love that they're using actual historical knightly orders. When I saw that they had Knights of Santiago, I said "yes... I must play this..."

Ever since my night gig ended, I've had a lot of time to paint minis. Kinda needed the distraction lately, too.

This unit has the ability to sing hymns that guard target Warjacks. The Hymn of Passage prevents the target 'jack from being targetable by non-magic shooting attacks, for example.

The Choir of Menoth

Heh if I could train fleas to do that sort of thing, I'd be living much better than I am...

Actually if anyone's interested, it isn't hard at all:
  • Get a very fine point brush, like a 000 (3/0) and make sure it's either brand new or well cared for
    Thin your black paint to about the consistency of milk on a palette. I use a wet palette I made myself.
    When dipping the brush into the paint, just dip the very tip of the brush and let the thin paint wick up into the bristles
    Paint the letters one stroke at a time. For example, an 'H' takes 3 strokes.
    If letters turn out bad, don't be afraid to paint over and start again.
So for this weekend's contest I'm entering:

1 unit of Minotaurs
1 unit of Greek Hoplites
1 Choir of Menoth
Alexander the Great

Thanks guys. Getting more love for that on here than I am on my gaming club site.
