Hi Ellyriel. It's like a Silver Helm story of the 1990's, excellent!

I'm not seeing the picture here. If you right click on your photo and select 'copy image address', then paste that between the [img] brackets, it should show up.

I've fixed the picture for you. If you edit your post, you can see what I changed. SA is correct, right click on your image, select "copy image location" and paste that in the [img] brackets.

They're starting to look good. The 4th ed. models have a timeless quality to them. And that horde of 5th ed. SH looks just epic. Are you planning an army list which contains all of them? That would be an epic sight...

Yeah, they are *starting* to look good. Thanks. Much work to do! No, my plan is to integrate them into my main army. So yeah, the goal is to have all of them together with my other forces on an army pamphlet. :D But I want each regiment to have a unique distinction and for all of them (4th and later) to have some sense of unity between them. And I dislike the 5th/6th horses...

I've looked at your army also, I like it. There is a unity of color with red and white that feels very pure for HE. Very much cleansed by the flames of Assuryan.

Thanks :D It was great fun painting them all. My goal with my army is the same as yours. To have unique units while also keeping a cohesive look for the army. I tried achieving that by giving each unit it's own color scheme but then also have common elements across the army. All the cloth is white and the trim and many of the details are red. I find this ties the army together nicely.

Keep us updated on your progress.
