Those Corsairs cloaks resemble my cloaks a lot, CoK :) I did go for more contrast on the leather but seeing yours I feel like I may have overdone the contrast on mine. Hm. Food for thought!

Impressive progress Lord Drakon.

Nice banner LD - there is a lot of depth to that eye!

Daeron - Still a few more highlights to go on the cloaks around the edges - not quite done yet.

I'm going for a fairly standard colour scheme, nothing to flashy.

@LordDrakon @CoK Great looking models fellas! Corsairs and especially dark rider models are two of the reasons that I got into DE in the first place. Some of GWs finest work imo

My February commitment is 5 warlocks and a Kharibdyss. Keep up the great work everyone!

What do you eat for breakfast? That's a lot of great painting in very very little time :P

Looks like the armies are growing fast and we are still not halfway through the month. I have found myself meandering a little bit between units since painting my dark riders but I have completed a Kharibdyss and if I can stay focused on one or two of the units may have many more points to add before the month is out.

Those corsairs are fantastic, I still can't decide on the colouring of mine so have put them off for March and will be doing my unit of cold one Knights instead. Am I right in thinking we just need to put the feh picture in the invasion thread and not here?

@ Booah - yes you just need to post them in the invasion thread, but can also post them here is you like (makes it easier to comment on) :D

I have made a quick start this month - going for 10 Dark Riders and a Sorceress.

Have just finished the horses and now working on the riders.

Horses look great. The highlighting is very well placed and not too overpowering.
Will act as a great inspirational source when I start on mine.

That's a brilliant use of helm crests.

I may just steal it :mrgreen:

Cold One Knights are finished, I tried to make it as WYSIWYG with the shields and the dread knight.
They are the personal guard of Lord Drakon and nobles of 'new' Har Ganeth.

Those dark riders are great.

March is nearly over, and I've finally completed this months challenge. 12 cold one Knights. Sorceress and 2 masters on cold ones. Will post pictures soon, light is rubbish. I've learnt that 15 cavalry at the same time doesn't work for me, got the base coat down quickly but the next stages seemed to take forever.

Time to get your entries in for March - post them up and lets see your progress.

If you have not been able to get models painted for the past two months why not give it a go and jump in and paint something for April!!!
