Persian Army (Tales of 1001 nights)

original thread ↗

hi guys, especially at BluBlu and his very nice arabian army !
my gnoblogs is open !
i just want to say, i'm french and not a specialist in english so don't throws stones :D
i choose a persian theme for my army, exactly "1001 nights" and each heros and  champion will be extract from one of these tales (if i manage to do that :D)


in first time iwant to post my first army list :

in France, we play "light"  and my army is make up by the minis i prefer

Tyrant : Tenderiser + Heavy armour + long strider + Wyrdstone necklace + Luck gnoblar
Hunter : long strider + 2 sabre tusks
Butcher : bangstick + dispel scroll (with the maneater or in 3 ironguts)
Butcher : skullmantle + dispel scroll (in 4or 3 ironguts)

3 Bulls + bellower
3 Bulls + bellower
3 Ironguts
3 Ironguts
4 Ironguts + standard bearer + war banner + lookout gnoblar
20 Gnobblar Fighters
8 Gnoblar Trappers
8 Gnoblar Trappers

2 Lead belchers + bellower
2 Lead belchers + bellower

1 Maneater : Cathayan Longsword (or great weapon) + Heavy Armor(with the butcher 1 or in solo like a 5st hero, sometimes he joins the tyrant, behind him for the tenacious)
1 bull rhinox : heavy armor + ironfist + bellower

 i'm not sure about the utility of the 3rd butchers, what do you think ?
my list could change because i need more gnoblards to make Ali baba and the 40 thieves


in 2nd time, i post my units

my first unit of bulls :






my 1st rhinox :







gnoblards on elephant :





Ali Baba and his non-fliyng carpet :





the carpets (wip) :



Thanks for your comments

nice
Great freehanding, I like your theme as well. The elephant as a rhinox- wonderful!

Technically, the 'Dont' in the phrase 'Dont you get it?' should have an apostrophe in it, between the 'n' and the 't'.
-Oh, crap!   It's the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man.
-The Most Bestest Site Ever!
Are you using the carpets as trappers? They're super hilarious. And how did you make or where did you get the elephants? The whole army is really cool. It is has a great comic feel without being overdone.

How did you do the vests?
i made it in greenstuff, it's relatively easy, i had more difficulty with the turban
for the iron guts i want make different jellaba

How did you do the sand bases?
Simply
first i take a tiling glue and distemper it on the base.
in second i sprinkle this glu with natural sand.
And after, i paint it, making some Brush and wash.

About my base, do you think that i must paint the different side in sand color or in black ?

Bullwaï
BEASTKILLER is my Bigname
If you mean the edges of the bases: paint them in a sand color, hat enhances the theme much better then black

As I'm the last poster, I'll ask the question in this post:
How did you do the lighting effect on the Leadbelcher?
Did you start with red on the furthest parts and then more orange and yellow to the parts closer to the fire?

yes it's exactly like that , and i finished with skull white.

after i paint some red washes.

thanks for the comments, i think i will paint the "edge"  :lol: (sorry) in sand color

Hi i present to you my 2nd leadbelchers, not finished. the fire, the lightening (too clear) and the trousers was WIP.






some comments ?

Hey, nice army and cool theme. Could you tell me by chance how you painted the skin? I was thinking about painting a darker skin tone as well. Thanks.
Hi
Could you tell me by chance how you painted the skin

in order : scorched brown, graveyard earth, bleached bone and skull wite. after that i make different washes in scorched brown.

after my leadbelchers, i begin the most important unit of my army : the trappers.
my trappers will hiden under pieces of potery
so, my 1st and 2nd trappers :

WIP :



finished :



What do you think about this ?

for the paint, what do you think about different paint on the potery.

Bullwaï
BEASTKILLER is my Bigname
Wow, awesome unit bullwai. I think in a unit you'd want a little color variation (as the pots are the focus of the models, so you don't want them to be boring). Maybe some stripes or squiggly lines, or simply other colors from the red/brown family.

i need your opinion about my new stuff : my iron guts.
i want to make it with djelaba, heavy armor and each unit give a type of 2 handed weapons (sword, hallebard or club)

what do you think about this idea ?

and i don't know if i keep the iron guts or if i sculpt the armor and a belt ?

It looks great.
The trapper pots look like they're dipped (no problem with that though).


The sash is pretty good, though more creases would make it even better.

Hi after a long time i want to finish my ogre army for a French tourney in May (100 players)

i've started a butcher and 2 cats and their hunter

some WIP pics

lions wip :



hunter wip :





Butcher "génie" :




the flame of the butcher is different now, bigger

actually i work on 3 iron guts like the first

and i change my elephant in a scrapalauncher ( i'll make two of them)

what do you think about it

comments are welcome

Great resurrection. The genie is awesome (and the lions look really good). Have you thought about stippling the base of the genie cloud? It will simulate the genie being formed out of sand (I think that's what you are going for), without looking as cheesey as gluing sand to the thing.

After all, painting 100 night goblins is something you do in the morning just before you are off to work.

And I think you missed a 0 when you wrote 11 armies. The correct nr should be 110 armies I would think, based on your painting speed.
They're all  great, I especially love the genie. Any chance we'll see a giant camel in the future, that would be plasmic (was that the word we're supposed to spread, I've forgotten and can't find it know).
Things to ponder:

If 'pro' is the opposite of 'con', does that mean 'progress' is the opposite of 'congress'?

Why doesn't Tarzan have a beard?

Isn't it a bit worrying that doctors call what they do 'practice'?

Why is a boxing ring square?
Excellent, the Genie made me laugh, and the detail of the clothing, plasmic!

I love the scraplancuher idea! Still not keen on the elephant in fantasy but that my opinion!

I'm loving the vizier too ;)

Fabulous!  I love the circus Gnoblars, launching the scrap with their combined weight.. great use of that model!  :D

i want to know what you think about my army list

Tyran
heavy armour, heavy weapon, luck gnoblard, BOH, greyback pelt, beastkiller, gut maw, wirdstone nec klace;

Hunter
2 tigers, tenderizer

Butcher
bangstick, scroll

Butcher
fistfull of laurels, scroll, biting sword

3 bulls
3 bulls
4 iron guts
21 gnoblard fighters
21 gnoblard fighters
8 trappers
8 trappers

2 leadbelchers
2 leadbelchers
scrapalauncha
scrapalauncha

4 maneaters BOH x4
1 gorger

the tourney limitations are :
3 same choices in core
2 same choices in spécial
no same choice in rare

the fistfull of laurels butcher goes in Maneaters and gives 3 magical attack VS etheral créatures.

Actually, i'd played this list 3rd time :
- versus a Vampire count, and i'd killed the lord in 2nd turn with my tyran (major Win)
- versus a High Elf, after the 2nd turn the 2 scrapalauncha exploded but my trappers had killed the forrestman the eagles adn a chariot with lions  :lol:, (major win)
- versus a Tomb King, their magical phase was too much important, so they could charged with magically Move, it was hard, the man of the match : trappers, who kills the hierophant at the last turn (minor defeat  :evil:)

What do you think about this list ?

BEASTKILLER is my Bigname
I like the unit of Maneaters, as it is unconventional but maybe a little large!

Also you have four character modesl which is fine, but only two units of 3 Bulls and one unit of ironguts. I think you're likely better off getting rid of one character model (probably the Hunter) and adding another unit of Ironguts to the army!

Lots of Trappers! I like it...maybe if you lose the Hunter you might try out a Gorger? See what you think :):)



Just suggestions, it might make the game play a little easier for you and it's my personal preference but gosh, try it and see don't just take my word for it :)

Check out my Gnoblog The Handbiters Tribe
based on the maneater paymaster i suppose?

yes, i had stolen the BLU BLU idea !  ;)

@ Belchfist Beastkiller : thanks for your suggestions, perhaps i'll make this change but not for this tourney, it' too late !!!

i continue to paint like a mad man and i want to show you the results

the great vizir back : (the bright disappear with varnish 8))


few gnoblard s fighters :



my 2nd unit of leadbelchers (with his gnob "cigare- lighter") :






and finally, my gorger, based on the movie "300" (i used a body of skaven rat-ogre, i made his legs taller with greenstuff and i give to him a great coconuts in place of the guts, because the gorger had no guts !!! :lol:)

I love the gorger idea :D I think it's brilliant!

The effect of the flame on the leadbelcher cannons and skin is also notworthy!

Sorry, i don't understand basing.

If it's the 1st paint : i used graveyard earth, after i'd go to white and darken with purple.

Actually i make 4 maneaters with lot of greenstuff and i begin to sculpt my Tyran, his flying carpet :shock: and his genius gnoblard :lol:

Hi bullwai,

excellent models and painting!!! I love your army!

I think by basing beastmum means the ground (la terre) - the plastic 40mm x 40mm square on the floor
We are the wolf that stalks
The stars in the sky

And swallows the star-fire

We hide amongst the night
When light is gone

The Light is within us

We run the ruin of Fire
In the darkness

Foes burn in our passing
Thanks for your translation

sorry for my poor english :oops:

All my army will be on sand like this :


with some vegetable, dry.

i'll make 3 or 4 palm tree and 1 tent

About my bases, do you think i'll paint the sides in black or in brown sand ???

Bullwaï
BEASTKILLER is my Bigname
Excellent bullwai!

the bases are full of character and go very well with the theme of the army.

I would paint the sides in sand since the black seems to stand out quite a bit, but that is my personal opinion
We are the wolf that stalks
The stars in the sky

And swallows the star-fire

When light is gone

The Light is within us

We run the ruin of Fire
In the darkness

Thanks Haakon_Redfang, that explained it!  Bullwai, the sand looks good, and I like your plans for the additions - maybe if you paint a base with brown sand sides for us to compare?  The black looks ok though! :)

Also, I like the way you painted the sides of the bases, they tie in all the army together.

After all, painting 100 night goblins is something you do in the morning just before you are off to work.

And I think you missed a 0 when you wrote 11 armies. The correct nr should be 110 armies I would think, based on your painting speed.
the gnobalr is awesome! hey maby make an unit of genie gnoblars? :D
I love seeing this blog get updated, always something nice to look at and so much work on each model

As always, magnificent work.  Each model must take you such a long time! The latest standard bearer looks wonderful, as the other posters said, the depth of paintwork on the banner is great.  Your sculpting skills are wonderful too, the armour and sash are perfect! I always look forward to seeing your updates!  :D

Very nice army!

This is such an original idea it should be added to the Armies section at the start of this website.

One tweak to the list might be champions instead of Bellowers on the Lead belchers.

Thanks for the reply, yours minis are great !

some news of my army :

My Mournfang cavalry : (




What do you think about the shield ? I let them in red or change the color ? The carpets are now paint with freehands like Greasus.

I played a tourney with one special characters. I choose Graissus for the minis. It will be perfect in "Qualife"





I Had made 5 maneaters with additionnal weapons, like the others. 

thanks fr your reply

Bullwaï :gnoblar:
BEASTKILLER is my Bigname
This army is full of win! And those Mourns are great. I'd definitley keep the shields red. They act as a nice contrast color between the blue and the grey skin of the rhinos.

Any chance we could get a full army shot of what you've got done? Pretty please?  :lol:

Oh, and I'm in the process of starting an Arabyan-themed army, so I'll definitely be checking back here for some inspiration.
Any chance we could get a full army shot of what you've got done? Pretty please?  :lol:

Of course, and the chance for you is my participation in a tourney this last week. A good photographer (better than me  :D) takes some pictures of my army :










Thanks for your reply.

in this tourney, i won the paint price but it was very hard because 3 others were great, especially 2 dark elves.
I post the links of the tourney pictures for you to see the incredible presentation plateau :

That is kinda awesome really. :)
My hood is my castle...

Great stuff! I wasn't sure about the theme at first - I thought it might be too 'fun' - but with all of the warbeasts the coherent scheme really makes this army looks wonderful on the tabletop. Especially against Lizardmen!

And I have to say that is the first version of Greasus I've seen that I thought looked like a proper Tyrant. Suitably opulent, and still packing a punch.

Question:
Where did you get the elephants and rhinos from? I'd like to get something similar, but am never sure of the brand. Many of ebay don't specify the size.

Wow, truly gorgeous, and everything really comes together nicely when all the units are set side-by-side.
Wow, this is a really great army. Great colours, and stunning conversions....not only the rhinos and the elephants, but also what you have done with the gnoblars. I wish I was that good at modeling....
This is a really amazing army, it really looks just stunning. (puts all my painting and modelling to shame lol XD)
