Chrace themed Sword Masters
I'm working up a Charace themed army... but I need to fit in two small units of Sword Masters... and want to model them to fit with the theme and not be confused with any other unit. I don't mind using alternative miniatures and am wondering if in the vast knowledge that is Ulthuan, if someone has an idea?

I have SMs in my 'chrace-themed' list (though its evolved quite a ways since its original inception), but I just gave them the same color scheme. I think for this kind of stuff, you need to be careful about proxying too much in the name of theme.
For instance, here's my WLs
And here's some of the SMs

Re: How about
I own almost all of those minis. Beware because they are not the same size and proportions like GW minis, they are more slender built and taller. Of course they are beautiful miniatures with much detail to them.LionHeart wrote:I was thinking of using Rackam's Paladins from the Lion faction. They have Lion themed armor, pointed helms. I haven't seen them in person, but they might work..
@Happy Scrappy Hero Pup: Hmm... I don't know, but from your pictures your minis give me more of a Caledorian feel than a Chracian one.

Yes, you are indeed right. They are considerably taller than spearmen or archers. Near the White Lions they don't look quite so bad, mostly it is the illusion of height created by the raised axes.
I think they look good though and will give them a roll

Hey there, great work on your army so far. While blue is my favorite color, I'm so sick of seeing blue high elf armies! Good work on your troops.

Re: How about
Funny you should say that - the army started completely themed on Chrace and has slowly evolved to be more 'caledorian,' i.e. adding in dragons and dragon princes. But if you're referring to the color choices, we'll just have to agree to disagreeKelorion wrote: @Happy Scrappy Hero Pup: Hmm...
