Here I'll show you pics of my Dwarfs, enjoy watching and please give me some feedback by writing a comment!

The Dwarfs of Kazad Karag



Background:

Kazad Karag is a small but proud fortress in the north of the Word Edge Mountains. They are often under siege by many evil foes, because of their rich ressources of iron and gold. So the Dwarfs living their are stoic and well skilled in combat and their runesmith produce every day a huge mass of armoury and weapons for the never ending struggle for survival. The King of the "Vulcanofortress" has command over thousands of the most grim warriors of Karaz Ankhor.
The fortress was named after the active vulcano on top of the mountain's hold, what encloses the fortress with it's magma rivers
The Dwarfs living here have a hot temper and get angry even by the lightest insult! Never a grudge was forgotten until it was settled by blood. So there is no wonder, the biggest shrine of Kazad Karag is the one dedicated to Grimnir, ancestor god of war and battle.

amazing painting and good use of washes!!
i can't decide if either the gold or the silver is better... but they are both awesome!

Lovely figures

Ironbreakers are great! I realy like your pinting and my IB's are quite similar- I prefer dark metal armour than polished silver

[Tribun]

I'm often using my IB as a proxy for Longbeards, because as Elite- Choices I prefer Grudethrower, Canon and Miners...the best advantage of IB are imo, they are nearly completly covered in Metal, so you don't have to waist much time with painting faces, hands and beards and....very un-dwarfish...cloth :D!

[Hammer49]

Ironbreakers look very good!

[Grabgold Thunderbeard]

Very nice, I like the dark painting style of your armour!

I really like your anvil and Krag in particular. Well done.
thanks for posting

[Borri Goldbeard]

you do very well with metallic colours! bases look kind of like the enviroment of our evil cousins of the east

[Tah Kazak Rik]

Excellent job, love the armour and the clothing especially! The Anvil is simple but still amazing. Great Job!

[Thor_001]

Your Mini's look awesome... any chance of getting a little guide on how you paint them so well?
Kragg and the Runesmith look awesome!

[Tribun]

Thanks, but to write a guide would be not so easy, because my painting-style is mostly defined by 16 years of painting- experience and pure try-and-error.

First time I've seen this thread. You have a very atmospheric style of painting you don't typically see, I really quite like it Your OOP Marauder (M11 Command Group) Standard Bearer in the first shot has a really nice face/eyes/expression - very well done
