Well this evening my son and I did indeed have our painting session. I managed to finish the frog riders. If I compare how I feel about these to how I felt about the Sisters then it is like comparing chalk and cheese.

I love these, I think in part because they are such a bonkers idea. Not one of them is sitting on the mount, they are all airborne in one height or another. I also love the randomness of the equipment. Yes I deliberately chose the options to make them this way, but again – bonkers. The lances in the description is frog cavalry with pointed sticks… and that is it down to a tee. They are just long sticks, not even pointy! The frogs themselves look bloody dangerous.

The one thing I noticed when I put them all together is thar the originals are in a polished silver and the new ones ate in gun metal… nothing a wash won’t solve.

So here they are in all their bounding glory…

With these, the frog colour is the unifying colour. If you think back to the frog herds, they were all colours and the leader was pretty colourful too…

In a way I wish I hadn’t gone as bright on the frog herds… at the time I was thinking poison arrow frogs.

James is still busy painting the chaos dudes. They were a present too him from Joe.

The big question is… do I go steppe goblins next… well obviously after I finish the peasants to go with the various knights. With regards to the latter, I have literally just scratched the surface.
