The Army of the Dark Prince

[Dark Prince]

@Borgnine Thanks and LMAO yes your right about that, me and my dad was just going through our parts box today and was wondering what on earth we will do with all those Chaos Warrior heads. You can have them if you need them for anything lol. I used one of the fifty on a zombie but the rest ughhh I don't know maybe I could put them in a big pile under a main character, like they killed a butt load of chaos dudes?

Or give them back.

I hear Chaos likes skulls.

My Zombie Horde, I painted them to fit in with my dads White Walker Army. As you can see I prefer the Games Workshop Zombies over my dads Mantic Zombies. Plus I have a Corpse cart to go with it when I get it painted.

 

[Borgnine]

Hooray for GW zombies Different skintones add much to the appeal of the unit, I like how some of them are more frozen than the others. I wonder how will you take on the corpse cart

@Dark Prince Nice work coming from you guys as always. Great looking unit and looking forward to seeng that cart. "Bring out yer dead!"

From out of the frozen fog ride the Black Knights.

Cool army (yeah I know lame...hardy-har-har). I really love the theme though. Always wanted to do a winter-themed army myself. The skin-colors you did use contrast nicely with all the blues.

@Dark Prince Great work on those Black Knights, they look awesome.

I like that you've gone for a very limited palette but made it work really well. I can almost chill my beer next to them!

 

[Sessioni]

@Dark Prince I have always liked empire themed black knights, and yours really look ancient. Good job there

 

[Borgnine]

I can almost chill my beer next to them!

My thoughts exactly! You did a terrific work on those old empire knights. They look so chilly that I begin to suspect that there's some cold effect photoshop filter going on there Even the choice of background for the photos supports this effect! Keep it up!

Hey man, Wow, I mean just Wow. I mean I know you're dad's helped teach you but credit where it's due your army is going to look amazing with an incredible theme. Please, keep your work coming.

Thanks for all the comments, I'm back to school next week trying to finish one last model before school starts.

 

[Dark Prince]

BRING OUT YOUR DEAD!!!!! I had to beg my dad to paint this one, He really wanted to do this one himself. This has to be the most fun I had painting a model yet. It just has so much detail and gory stuff on it. I really hope I did the model justice.

I'm not the biggest fan of the edges of the base, a bit too squared off for me, but that's about the biggest complaint I can come up with. Besides the edges, that base is fairly amazing. The 2nd to last picture, where you can really see the base up close, makes it look simply fantastic. The stones have that slight white-edge from the snowfall on one side, and there is drifts of deeper snow, I'm rather smitten.

The model's not too shabby either. A bit more warm, but it doesn't detract from anything :ghost:

 

[Farmer7574]

Very nice job painting this one up. I like the blue fire coming from the brazier, very eery.

 

[Leithel]

Man I love it. It is a little warmer but only the corpses part. The snow and ice look great. Keep it up I can't wait to see more

 

[Sessioni]

Nice painting, man! Why didn't I think about placing a skull rather than necromancer head on the model. That skeletal look fits so much better, kinda like boat rider from the River Styx but not quite Good job, and good luck with upcoming school year

 

[Borgnine]

Another good one! Adding a skeletal head to the rider is not something one sees done often good idea with it! I agree with previous commenters about it being more warm though, the brown on the wood could use being a little less saturated. And the blue fire could also benefit a bit from some white highlights on the tips on the flames. But that's small things, overall it's a very good piece!

Oh, and going to school... It was good to have so much free time as when one was going to school Don't let homework distract you from painting

 

[Dark Prince]

Thanks again for all the comments and critiques everyone. I think this model looks warmer because of the dark colours I used this time and that I used my camera and took the pics instead of letting my dad take the pics with his camera. I also think I didn't use enough snow on the base, going more for a wind swept look than a frozen look.
