Two Grand Batteries of Mole Mortars. You can never have enough light artillery, right? The Hazard Stripes were done with a thin ink pen.

Two Thunderer formations (or upgrades). Again, one per Brotherhood.
Two Berzerker formations – one per Brotherhood (red and yellow).
The second Warrior formation. One Brotherhood has red “buttons”, the other yellow. The Lord is standing on a shield carried by two warriors.
I hate Squats… I really do. In my darkest moments I wish that they would all be devoured by Tyranids… oh, wait…
After the (near) completion of the Lost and the Damned Chaos army for the TacComs Tale of Epic Gamers, I foolishly decided to continue painting 6mm EPIC models. By popular vote I was encouraged to select the Squats as my next project. Squats are painful to paint (well). While there is a lot less infantry than in the Chaos force, they ALL look the same. No problem, I thought, I painted Space Marines and other such uniform armies before. How bad can it be? Well, each Squat has boots, trousers, vests, shirtsleeves, face, beard, gloves, gun and cap. That means painting 800 boots, 400 trousers, etc. Worst of all was the mistake to paint everything in one assembly line to “stay consistent”. Motivation killer…
Anyhow, after a 30 days absence from the blog, I finally have some progress to declare. The Squat infantry and light artillery is done! To keep my sanity and make you suffer a bit like I suffered, I shall post individual units every days or so. For starters, below is the first Warrior Brotherhood with Lord and Living Ancestor.
The last few ToEG items for the Lost and the Damned are sluggishly clearing my paint station. Below is a Lord of Change based on the Warmaster model. The colour scheme is a bit muted to fit in with the rest of the Tzeentch contingent.
I got the model in a trade from TacComs (including wings). Paintjob is mine.
Old model, new paintjob inspired by old colour scheme.
May was a pretty odd month, with very little painting work done. I finished the remaining Chaos models for a total of 2085 points (5 models 🙂 ).
Tzeentch Feral Titan 300
Tzeentch Banelord Titan 800
Magnus the Red 85
Lord of Change 100
Nurgle Banelord Titan 800
Below is the Nurgle Banelord Titan. The model was converted by somebody on the TacComs forum and then painted by me. The colour scheme ties in with the green/red/purple/bone scheme of the Nurgle contingent. Other photos will go up shortly.
My WIP versions of the Firelords and Hellhounds promoted some comments, so here are the final versions. As suggested, I went with red for the Firelord “power cells” (or whatever the things on the wings are). The Hellhound fuel tanks were repositioned as well.
