Citadel Dwarf Troll Slayer Command II (Colin Dixon, 1998) (Jewel of July ’19)

Citadel Dwarf Slayer Command, 1998

Today’s post features the first Dwarves I’ve completed in quite some time. It is in fact a pair of models I’ve painted/completed before, pretty much two full years ago. There’s not all that much to write about them, really. There were a bunch of Dwarven Slayers sitting on that one spot on my painting desk, that I’d occasionally look at and think about working on, but it took a concerted mental effort to pick them up properly and just get them done.

There are a few more that got completed as well, to be shown in the next few days – you’ll hopefully understand why I’m using seperate posts when I show them, though sadly there are still more metal Slayers to go yet. As with the previously painted-and-shown pair, I tarted up the standard not with a banner, but with a slightly modified Dwarven Standard top. I think it does make the base model look a lot better with that extra bit of bling, though.

Marauder MM16 Dwarf Slayers – Group Shot!

Marauder Miniatures MM16 Dwarf Slayers, Oldhammer

Following up on the group shots I’ve been doing of some of my models recently, here’s one of the Marauder Miniatures Dwarf Slayers that I’ve painted. I think they come up nicely as a group, actually, despite the goofiness that some of them have. I’ll do another group shot of the Citadel Giant Slayers sometime down the line – after I’ve finished all of them, so don’t hold your breath for it right now…

Here’s the full range on release, which I am missing three models from. Of course, there’s also a variation on one of these guys, plus a scattered few from other Marauder Ranges, and then an expanded but separate range of MM Troll Slayers. While I’d really like to get the missing three (and every other Citadel and Marauder Slayer model that I don’t own), I’m not going to kill myself over it, instead I’ll keep an eye out on eBay for them at reasonable prices. Wish me luck!

The most striking thing to me from these two side-by-side pictures is that my models come up pretty nicely against the “official” ones here. Not too shabby. 🙂
