I am adding Rough riders to a Vostroyan army, and since Attillans are discontinued I opted for DRK with a similar palette. I think they fit thematically but look a little off, since GW miniatures have such exaggerated proportions. BTW I also gloss all my minis.

Slightly better image.



also could someone give me tips on highlighting with gold? I am having a tough time with the new GW paints, they seem way too "gummy"?

Wow, I really like those! I have been thinking about swapping heads with extra sergeants I have lying around, but the price tag on the Forge world minis makes me hesitant to convert them. Seeing the end product helps a lot.

Those look great, but if you're looking to make them look a little more outlandish, perhaps a helmet crest would do the trick. One running up and down the spine of it should do well.

I like that idea, the narrative I was running in my head was that the RR had helmets and armor, etc. befitting their role, I was looking at old cuirassier images and they had crests I like. Those should be easy to add even after painting. Thanks!
