WM: Rhul Ghordson Driller (Warjack)

As I saw my "Ghordson Driller" just sitting in the package, I thought it was time to take a small break from Khador and to finish this model up.

"Driller" is the last of the Mercenaries models I have for my Rhul army.  15 points to start with are now complete.  I'll play a few games at this point level and then decide if I want to expand them to 25 points.  I think for now I'll keep them at 15 points and possibly start another small army in the near future.

I have two other Cygnar models I am probably going to paint next, then back to Khador.

WM: Rhul Wroughthammer Rockram (Warjack)

Mercenaries

Now that "Gorten Grundback" was finished the other day, he needs some Heavy Warjacks to control.

For my 15 points I am going to have "Driller" and "Rockram" and seeing how I already had "Rockram" assembled, he hit the painting board first.

I painted "Rockram" very similar to the way I painted my Light Warjacks "Grundback Gunners" with one slight change.  Besides adding some 'Traitor Green', I decided to do the highlight before the wash on "Rockram".  With the "Grundback Gunners" I did the highlight afterwards and I feel the highlight sticks out just a bit.

All that's left for the Rhul army is the "Driller" and I am hoping to get to him this weekend.  Some Cygnar models will be coming up next.

WM: Rhul Gorten Grundback (Warcaster)

Mercenaries

As I mentioned yesterday, I was going to put the Khador army on hold for a few models and continue on my Rhul army and my son's Cygnar army.

My Warcaster of choice for the Rhul army is "Gorten Grundback".  The 'Strength of Granite' spell that "Gorten" has is just too good not to pass up to cast on my Warjacks.  I also really like the sculpt of this model.  That is one benefit in getting back into Warmachine.  I always liked the sculpts of the models and they are an enjoy to paint.

I followed a similar paint scheme to what I used  for "Thor Steinhammer" with the added color of P3's 'Traitor Green' in some areas.

WM: Rhul Thor Steinhammer (Solo)

Mercenaries

More work continued on my Rhul Warmachine army.

This time I decided to paint up Thor Steinhammer.  He is a 'Jack Marshal' for the Rhul army and he can also be used as a Mercenary in my Khador army.  As a 'Jack Marshal' for my Khador army, he can control up to two Mercenary Warjacks.

Thor Steinhammer was actually quite fun and easy to paint up.  I was able to get him done in about 90 minutes, and the GW 'Devlan Mud' wash worked great on him.

WM: Rhul Grundback Gunners (Warjack)

Mercenaries

The first models for my Rhul Mercenaries army for Warmachine are now done.  The first two models I started painting were the "Grundback Gunners".  Since these two Warjacks were so small, I decided to paint them together and save some time.

The Rhul army is only going to be 15 points to start with, so I still have my Warcaster "Gorten Grundback", a Solo "Thor Steinhammer" and two Heavy Warjacks, "Rockram" and a "Driller" to paint.

I'll be picking up the "Driller" model this weekend and hopefully more progress will be done on them before the weekend is over.
