Empire Test Models: Prototype 2


Hey guys, very quick post to show a couple of Empire test models that I finished. Super happy with how they came out, and I think this will be my scheme going forward. Might drop the light green ribbon as I think this I think there are a bit too many colours. So the scheme will be deep red and cream quartered on any fabric/clothing, dark silver for armour and light blue as spot colours. Im still in limbo on basing for the moment but after spending a few days in autumnal Scottish Highlands I think I might try to replicate that with dark granite/slate rock, browns and tan long grass and deep red and gold leaves. Maybe a bity of (purple) heather too if I feel like infuriating Mike!

Anyway let me know what you think guys, absolutely champing at the bit to get this army built and on the table!

  1. Very nice work, I love the bright red. I agree with changing the green though, too many colours and maybe a little christmasy.

    I think dark bases would be good to counteract the brightness of the figures.

  3. Looking good, dunno about dropping the colour, agree if it looks too busy but it is a signature 'rich' paintjob to have multiple bright colours on the go.
