Will note these models _fucking suck_. If you look closely, you'll spot all the branches, leaves, and goddamn arrowheads that couldn't survive my clumsy ass painting them. Hell, I managed too break off a pretty large branch while basing the Treelord, but at least I was able to find it & reglue it.

… and some with black backdrop. Couldn’t fit the whole spearhead in front of it, unfortunately.

Finally, my first photo using one of the Hodgson backdrops. This affirms my conviction that I need to prep a little display tile to use in conjunction with them.

These are really pretty! But I have to stop myself from starting another faction.

Thanks! I really like them but would _not_ recommend picking these up anyway: they're entirely too fragile.

That's also something that I've been wondering about these minis. They really look amazing once painted nicely, but how practical are they for gaming use, due to how fragile some of them can be.

My old metal Skaven Verminlord I have to be a bit careful, but the new one is so fragile it's not funny

I've painted a plastic Verminlord and find it to be a pretty acceptably solid mini. I don't recall it having any of the sort of 1-2 sq mm bits that are just too fragile in plastic (anything but metal, really).

Worst kit I've assembled in years was the new LOTR Dunlendings for those tiny pieces.

Ah cools, I've not yet fully assembled mine yet, only primed the individual parts. But the part that worries me the most are the super long twin tails.

Beautiful work, nice unique scheme!
