These are some models for my Warhammer Empire army; as an indication of just how long these models have been languishing unfinished, when I painted them there still was a Warhammer Fantasy Battle and an Empire faction within it!
These models are all based on two figures from Hasslefree Miniatures - Tiriel and Dynamic Tiriel (with one Kneeling Tiriel in the middle) with lots and lots of conversions. The idea for the unit was heavy-armored sword-and-board warriors (in previous editions known as Lords of Battle, hence the name!) with strong religious overtones. So, there are lots of candles, books, icons, statues etc. in the unit. The unitfiller / backdrop is made of blocks cast using the Hirst Arts Roman Temple mold. I was inspired by the Lion Gate in Mycenae for the design above the door lintel.
This unit was all-but-complete; the only thing I had to do was base the movement tray and add some grass to the unitfiller! Still, it is something for the hobby and it is something I did today - so, the first day of my new resolution is a success!
