I would like to present you my Lyonesse Army. I have used Perry and Kingmaker miniatures to build the army up. I hope you like them






















The unit with a new command.


























The whole army so far.


The army is far from being complete, you can expect lots of Knights, Bowmen, characters and Monsters to follow

Absolutely stunning. Those miniatures are wonderful and your colour scheme and painting really makes them loook incredible!



I've always wanted to build one from Perry miniatures. Shinryu did something similar as well. Can you provide a link to the kinmaker minis? I've never heard of them .... however, the models are excellent and fit in really well.

Thanx
here the link to the Kingmaker HP:

Fantastic stuff. You should add some of their war wagons and give the new vehicle rules a try.

Well, that is an idea, I will keep it in mind. Of course some wagons will be added, because I use the army for historical games too

Awesome ... with the new vehicle rules, you don't have to worry about drive values so you can have a war wagon pulled by a couple of horses, as in those sample models. I'd love to see a few of those festooned with crossbowmen or something.

How long did this army take to paint?

Well it took not that long, as I used the Shades from Fanatic Army Painter, so I needed about 20min. for a single miniature.

Hi Lameth,
I have to say your Lyonnesse army is truely stunning,
can we use the photos on the AoA website in the section for the lyonnesse army please.
What we are planning is that each race will almost be a community in its own right when you can see several different armies from diferent players. with details of where the figures come from, if thats ok. You can also add a little write up on how you put the army together.

Sure, you can use the photos, if you want. Btw, the next project will be an army of the Empire of Marr

If you have time, Lameth ... I'd to read a bit more about how you painted the army. When you paint up your next batch of minis, could you take a few work-in-progress shots and then later write up a brief article on how you did each step? I didn't realize such decent effects could be achieved with the army painter/wood stain stuff.

That army is simply amazing! Perry minis are really something, but those Kingmaker figs fit is fantastically too! Overall, awesome job!




(and don:t forget to post up pics of your Empire of Marr! )

Hey Shin,

Speaking of Lyonnesse pictures ... you've got a great army as well. Could you PM DESC your pics for the new site as well?

Well, the trick with the armypainter ist to choose the right colors and of course to work on some parts of the miniature after dipping.

1)I allways base coat the miniature in white or gray,
2) paint it in bright base clors,
3) dip it into the shade
4) shake the shade off
5) with a little (don´t know if it is the right word) sponge I take superfluous shade off.
6) paint some parts of the miniature again
I hope you understand what I´m trying to say


@Shinryu
Show me yours

I will present the Marr project in a german forum and will post here a link.

Awesome, if you could take some work in progress photos next time, that would be really helpful.

One more question, how did you do the pictures on the shields? Are they free hand or some kind of sticker/transfer?
