I didn't photograph these when I first did them for some reason. So here they are now.
This is the first Dwarf team I painted, all from Black Scorpion apart from the DR which is a converted Skaven thing I can't remember the name of.
Dwarfs remain my favourite race in the Warhammer World, and I've just bought my third and fourth Dwarf teams. I don't care, I'm a very bad player.

Blitzers:

Slayers:

Blockers:



Final Blocker and Death Roller:

Runner and assorted bits:

Thanks for looking and sorry (not sorry) for all the bruises they've inflicted.

Wow I love the tones you've used for them! And the deathroller and slayer minis are awesome! Who is the producer?

They are from
Black Scorpion Miniatures.
I also bought a team but didn't like the Slayers to be naked, what I haven't seen on the picture in their shop.

Death Roller is a Doom Flayer apparently, with the Skaven-esque blades and runes cut away and the crew cut off. Easy work on a resin model.
Not everyone's cup of tea but it works and fits snugly inside a square.

These are remarkable. I found them a real challenge. Just painted the linemen and found the faces a bit squished. You have nice fluid tones and layers though. Might have another go.

great paint job! I thought those Black Scorpion dwarves were a great team for the price, but I never pulled the trigger. I just couldn't get over the troll slayers with their cash and prizes hanging out...

this is the only team from black scorpion i don't own. i think they look great. very nice paint work.
hav'ng said that, the slayer figures are kinda goofy. mean to say, if there was only one place on my body i could cover, my junk would get covered.
but i quite like the team. and at the price they ask? good team and great price.

Great job on the painting, my only problem is those Troll Slayers should each have a blue testicle.
Very nice looking team, Congrats!

I tried that. They just looked a bit frustrated.

I must agree with the excellent painting!
Also, I quite like the sculpts (especially the Slayers... they have nothing to lose after all

), but there is just not enough destinction between the Blitzers and the Blockers for my taste. At least not in an actual game where you look at them from a meter or more away...

What a beautiful team. I really like the colour scheme and your clean, subtle painting style. The highlights and shading are just right for my tastes.
