We Make War! - Iron Golems for Warcry

So I picked up Warcry and it's fucking awesome.  Suck a good value for money box.  An unboxing will follow shortly, but for now let's look at the Iron Golems.

I've painted these up in an Alpha Legion style.  I wanted something different, all the Iron Golems I've seen either have black or red armour.  I've also covered the weapons in blood, their brutal fighters I wanted them to look like they've gotten some action.  Out of the factions in box these guys are my favourite.  My favourite overall are the Unmade, they wear their faces on their belts, and that's metal as fuck.

Iron Legionaries
Love the shields on these guys.  These guys aren't amazing statwise.  But with toughness 5 and 10 wounds they've got some decent staying power.

Iron Legionary with Bolas
Not as tough as the other legionaries and a little cheaper. This guy has a longer range weapon, he can attack up to 3 inches away.  He's also go his more damaging hammer if the enemy get closer to him.

Armator
Woot! Chaos dwarf! Check out his armoured beard. He's slow, reasonably tough and packs a decent hit with his 4 attacks at strength 4.

Drillmaster
That flail.  The fastest of the Iron Golems.  She (I'm pretty sure it's a she) hits pretty hard, she can hit enemies up to 3 inches away with her flail.  And up close she's pretty brutal with a base 2 damage (4 on a crit) with her club.

Signifier
He has a pretty decent statline but that's not the best thing about him.  He has a unique ability that grants all Iron Golems within 6 inches and extra point of toughness.

Ogor Breacher
Big freight train of a dude. He's hard as nails and hits like a truck.  His only downside is his low attack value.  However if he hits, lets face it at strength 6 he's probably going to hit, it's going to hurt with a flat damage value of 4 and 8 on a crit.

Dominar
He's the boss.  He's hard hitting, pretty tough and has a big hammer.

Now if you're wondering how I achieved the armour colour I can tell you it's dead easy.  Base coat the armour with leadblecher.  Then drybrush it with runefang steel.  The carefully apply Akhellian green contrast paint avoiding the trim.  Then go back in with runefang steel to fix the bits you messed up.
