Bauhaus Hussars Finished!


After the test figure worked out so well, I decided to plough through the other nine.  I tried  to replicate the method as to get them done as soon as possible.  It also helped that I remembered to dry brush all the things BEFORE I started with the detail.




Still, I noted that there were a few places I could improve, but hey, these are the rank and file.  Even the weapons, painted metal and washed black, will be the mass produced model.  For the Rangers I'm planning something special.



The inspiration behind the design.

With regards to the camo, I've started thinking about using a specific brush and motion for both of the colours, hopefully to make the camo pattern more accute.

Next up is the Bauhaus heavy Vulkan battle suit.  I fancy something less in quantity.  But more on that soon. :)







My plan is to have at least three units ready for some Demo gaming at our local hobby centre, Outland, in Oslo very soon.  If you are in the area and you're interested, let me know!

As ever, thanks for reading.

Warzone. Bauhaus. That is all.


So after noticing the wonderful remake of Warzone, Warzone Ressurection, I've dove in with partner in crime Snorre and grabbed a starter pack.

And some more.

The game is a smaller scale grim dark styled game, which is at more of a platoon level than 40k.  It has more of a Warmachine feel to it, though arguably much less complexity.  Like 40k, the empashis is Fun over Fair, as opposed to Fair over Fun.

It uses a lot of cards too, so I have already come prepared with my own choice of card protectors.


No.

The range is still in its infancy, and uses a lot of modern techniques despite its obvious teething problems.  The figures are produced in Poland, using a 3d printer and a soft bendy resin mix.


The bases are sadly still mass produced with a slot which is never used with this range.  Nothing some cardboard and superglue can't fix!


Angelica with her Bahous Juggernought bodygaurd.  Love these guys.  Recently saw Edge of Tomorrow with those Exosuits and fell in love with them.


The Big One in the starter box.  Note the bases are drying, a mix up of sand, slate and herbs.  It was at this point I decided to go for the Venusian Jungle base, as opposed to the cliche Winter base theme most go for with Bahous.




The whole collection is about an average size for an army.  With the advanced rules, this counts as probably more. 

Old unit of Bahous!



The final unit was the elite Venusian Rangers.  With these guys I decided against the shoulder pads.  Nothing against them, I just found myself preferring the sleek look.  Considering the jungle warfare colour scheme I'm looking into doing, this will work very nicely.



Now assembled, I'm planning on experimenting with these chaps.  Use some of those P3 paints from the Flames of War German uniform set I bought a while back.  The design was suggested by someone on the Facebook Warzone page.
