One of the things I've been most excited about with the launch of The Old World is being able to have the excuse to dig out all those forgotten projects like my planned Dogs of War army! Although known as Regiments of Renown, this army can consist of armies or mercenaries loyal only to those who pay them enough to stick together! You might even recognise them from Total Warhammer 3! If you're the type of person who gets bored painting armies, the variety might be a great choice for you! I have thought about this army a lot and I decided not to wait anymore! I hope you enjoy this first look at my newest army project but I'll still be trying to finish the other armies I've already started too! As always let me know what you think, plus suggestions for future Old World videos!
We don't have access to full editing this week but please ask any questions about paints etc and we’ll answer everything!
Basing scheme:
AK Terrain Dark Earth texture paste
Ryza Rust (dry) brush
Screaming Skull (layer) dry brush
I add flock/tuffs once the unit is complete!

Good video as always, Andy. If you want some good proxy models for your DoW army, I recommend Perry Miniatures 1450-1500 range of kits or any models revolving around the Italian Wars of the early 16th century. There's a video on KZfaq interviewing the Perrys and they mention people used Dogs of War miniatures as historicals.

Ave Lorenzo! Never seen him before, he does look amazing. It'd be cool if there'd be an entire roman Phalanx to go with him tbh. Gotta love the idea of heavily armored infantry blocks with rows of spears and shields interlocking to be a fighting brick. Kinda what I picked up my Tomb Kings for; they kinda fit that theme quite well and Egypt was tied to Rome. I kinda want the old metal Maiden Guard and Alarielle but they're way too expensive to consider. I wonder if GW will reissue them as a "Made to Order" sale when the High Elves come out... that'd be cool. I'd definitely consider a unit of 20 Maiden Guard and Alarielle to go with them if they did. For now I can't paint too much, last thing I finished was my Duke on Hippogryph; hope you liked the pictures on Twitter, it was a blast to build. XD

I have them! And yes they’ll be coming to the army soon! I wanted to start with the paymaster but I couldn’t fit it into my week so I needed a smaller model instead 😄

Love Tilea, they are basically Ancient Greeks with a sprinkling of Romans, including Lorenzo who has a Greek sword and Hoplite shield. Always wanted the pikemen but so expensive.

There's a copy of that shield on ebay right now... This project rocks! I'll buy it and send it your way if you think you'd still maybe want it? Though what you did looks super baller too... Just a thought, and wanted to add some support, not being able to commit to monthly patreon payments ATM...

I very much appreciate the offer pal. But I shall stick with me current shield I mite change it at the end of the project if I have a very original project on my hands. And I understand not everybody can do the Patreon watching liking and being subscribed is an amazing help. Thank you.

Didn't he had the rules that you had to role for a battle to see what kind of sport he had been training for which resulted in having a certain special benefit for a battle?

Thanks for the video! Any advice on painting metal minis compared to plastic?

@MediocreHobbies 2 ай бұрын

Always varnish them afterwards! Other than that, there’s not a huge difference. Try to have reference photos if some of the detail is lost when you’re trying to pick it out at the start and make sure you hold it in a way that is comfortable. You’d be surprised how heavy the model gets while you’re painting. Same with the base, make sure it’s not going to topple over when you put it down.

would a shield of the old blazing sun shields be a better choise?

Yes it would have been but I love how he turned out. So I’m gonna leave him lol.

I may be remembering wrong, but didn’t a Dogs of War army require a “Pay Chest” cart model to be used as they need to be paid… would love to see your scheme for that. Awesome job as ever.

Oh that’s coming, don’t worry! I planned to start the army with it but it will take more than a day to paint so needed to plan ahead more 😄

was an absolute fan of WHFB, but never liked the Dogs of War. They were very dorky and didn't look they would fit. Well, that was the point, I guess.

@@MediocreHobbies They used to, but what they do now can't hold the candle to what they used to do nor to so many different offers that are around nowadays. But if you like them, more power to you.
