@ Brother Masriel: Yes, they will be African black people not Salamanders black skinned. I've been tooling around with the colors, as I like the ones I have, I realized that a lil contrast will be better. And since I plan on having a couple of Scout units, I don't want the skin color blending in with the armour. Only the Lord rolls with the panther motif, the rest are more leopard-ish, So I think I'll adjust the clours to fit.

 

@PlagueBearer: For this army I've dropped the hyena thing. I may do it as a small Chaos force later though. Right now, I'm doing a Leopard logo similar to the hyena one, I'll post it soon.

 

@Durus: Thanks. Those lions are sweet, and would save me alot of conversion work( I was gonna file and convert the heck out the GW wolves, if I'm bored I still may <_< ).

I love the idea of a Panther themed army. In the danish army almost every company have their own animal tied to it, and my current company has the panther (I can PM you a pic of our company markings if you want it). Also the idea of an African look to the army would be nice for a change. Good luck with the project, and keep us posted, I'll definately keep watching this.

 

 

Luther..

So while i've been modeling my Lord, I got to thinking about the way I wanna play this army. I decided that while C:SW is full of win, I want this force to be more stealthy. So I decided to build the list around Shrike and the Raven Guard. So here is the preliminary 1500 pt list I drew up. Oh yeah, hopefully I'll have my camera back Fri, so I can post pics of the Lord.

C&C appreciated. Thank in advance :P

4th guy has a Ml, I don't think you can give the Sgt. a Sniper Rifle, can you? Either way they are my "harass" the enemy sqaud, I may cut 1 of the Assault squads down so I can get another group of Snipers, I've always liked the idea of causing pinning checks.

Thanks for the info, malign, I may get some of those bits for later use.

 

Edit:

So while I'm waiting to get my camera this weekend. i've been working on the list . I tried to see if I could give it a lil more power, while keeping with my "sneaky" theme. So here goes. tell me which one you guys think would be better/more fun. For those that didn't know, I'm going for a very stealth centered force, with the ability to orchestrate fast and brutal assaults(like panthers/leopards :) ). I originally was gonna use C:SW, but started reading up on the Raven Guard and felt that their tactics fit better.

I drew some "mock-ups" of my next conversion for my Panther Lord SMs.

I just felt like doing a perspective drawing on this one.

I'm really happy that your modelling skills can keep up with your artwork.

 

The torso of the running Marine could use some bulking up, but otherwise he's great.

 

The dynamic artwork is very good, but I think you kind of messed up the spear. The tip seemes to point in a different direction than the shaft.
