A Legion Rises
May - Xiliarch
As much of the Xiliarch was covered by a cloak, I took the time to mask off these sections before applying the Retributior Gold. This would save me time overpainting the metallics later.
In a bid to catch up I managed to get a few late night painting sessions in over the early May Bank Holiday, all but completing the Xiliarch in a weekend. He was actually pretty simple as a large portion of the model is covered with a cape, which I tackled with a couple of coats of the X-press Gloomy Violet. This was followed by a Drakenhorf wash to the more recessed areas and Agrax around the hem.
With the completion of the Xiliarch I had reached my first milestone of 350 points painted! (I will update with some army pics when I get the chance).
I now had 20 models painted, well over half of the 34 that make up this small army (and including a few options to bulk up a couple of the regiments). I was also back on track, with the rest of May to tackle the 2nd regiment of legionnaires.
Very nice
Thank you ??
