Mantic Games Goblin Army
Show offs...
So I decided tonight after work I’d make it my goal to keep progressing with my goblins, but realised my project was lacking something that said to me that these were the comical ridiculous fighters known as goblins, while perusing through an old white dwarf magazine I realised what it was, they needed a bright colour that screamed, we are goblins and we like showing off. So I went back and took my bright and wonderful Mars Red from the army painter (which I was already using on their glyphs on banners) and did up the bows and spears for the slasher ballistae. Now it may look garish to some but to me it adds the character and ostentatiousness that is the hallmark of goblins in my opinion. It also for me is a way to pay homage to the armies that were proudly displayed at the time of my youth when I was first drawn to this hobby!
Now on the slightly less exciting side I went ahead and did the bronze and then straight after (when dry) washed my goblin rabble in strong tone. Not much to say on that other than that progress is happening and I remain committed to my goal to have 2000 points of the little devils done up for when life is a little more normal.
2000 points of goblins is a lot of goblins ……. you are a braver man that I mate ….. I can’t wait to watch 🙂
There’s going to be soooo many of them when they’re done, but I think it will be well worth it just to get to field an army of the little maniacs!
are you aiming to beat Rob from Mantic as king of the goblins?
I intend to show Mr Burman who the real king of goblin kind is!
