Cornelivs Maximvs Allies - Dwarves (count as Astra Militarum)
In the Cornelivs Maximvs books that I have written the dwarves are mentioned as being allied to the imperial forces, so as part of my attempt to build forces that represent my books, I have built and painted some Einherjar from Wargames Atlantic to represent them. In addition, the dwarves have a somewhat symbiotic relationship with a species of sentient giant spiders and they often fight side by side, so I got some of the dwarves to be mounted on giant spiders (also from Wargames Atlantic) for rough rider equivalents.
Although in the books the spiders can also fight on their own as the dwarves often dismount once they reach their destination, I have not built any spiders on their own.
Even though the dwarves are at peace with each other, they are divided into several kingdoms and so the colours of their equipment vary greatly based on the planet or kingdom from which the forces were recruited.
Below are some examples of how the dwarves look on foot or mounted on giant spiders.
Some examples of different worlds/kingdoms:
In total I have 120 dwarves, 60 on foot and 60 mounted, divided into 5 batches of 24 soldiers each batch with its own colour scheme.
Other than basing which is something that I intend to do in the future for my entire army, they are all ready which is not that bad, considering I have bought them in 2020 and built the last batch of them in 2021.
I am certain I didn't build the spiders as they should be built, but I like how the poses are often quite unique and dynamic.
