With just under a calendar month to go to the ETC
I thought I’d write a few lines to update readers on my (slow) painting progress for
the event. In the last post I was fairly
certain on my list, but a bit less so on the reserves. That is still pretty much the case gaming
wise as I’ve just tried the double Repenters and choir twice. They were relatively effective in managing to
burn some high defence Kayazy in one game and Gun Mages in the other – having three
focus on the turn they arrive is helpful in causing mayhem, though in later
turns they are less useful and tend to be out of control for allocating focus
to. I might have been better choosing
another infantry unit, but time is short to get enough painted.
Below are a few photos of the finished pair of Repenters.
They were painted identically to other Menoth
jacks.
The only thing of note to mention
is the fact one of them actually has the metal Blessing of Vengeance legs.
I did a small conversion on the Blessing,
giving it plastic legs to make it look less ‘dumpy’, seen in
this entry.
There was a small amount of work done on the
Repenter torso to allow the metal legs to look like they fit with the model and
after both were finished it isn’t actually that easy to notice they’ve got
different legs and lower torsos!

I've still got the second Choir of Menoth to paint up before the event to add to these warjacks to complete the reserve forces. A month should be enough, though painting has been so slow recently.
