I've painted the Northgard Warchiefs (from the so called boardgame extension). They were quite fun to paint.
This blog is about my hobby: collecting and painting miniatures (mainly fantasy) and playing epic Warhammer battles (mainly 3rd edition). The blog's name is a contraction of Old Metal (lead miniatures referring to Oldhammer) and the famous song 'Metal Militia' from Metallica (yes, I'm a great fan of Metal music).
Northgard
Northgard is a PC game released in 2017. The player leads a viking clan which has landed on a new continent (Northgard). The player's clan competes with other viking clans for domination over this new continent. There are several ways of winning the game: reaching a certain level of fame (in combination with a certain number of possessed territories within the map + building a king's altar), reaching a certain level of lore (+ building a special monument), capturing Yggdrasil (the world tree), reaching a certain level of commercial exchanges, reforging Odin's sword, etc.
Trolls!
Four new Trolls join my Orcs & Goblins army (or could by aligned in a Chaos army as well). I tried different skin tones as Trolls could be of any colour.
The Colours of Chaos (2)
Although my (painted) Chaos army increases in size on a regular basis and is quite big now (around 300 painted Chaos minis), most of the Chaos champions (sculpted by Jes Goodwin) still need to be painted. I will rectify this by painting some from time to time, alternatively with minis for other armies.
Here are four Chaos champions and two sorcerers, along with two familiars (these are not from Citadel, and honestly I don't remember where I got them from... 😕).

Greenskins Firepower
Back to my Orc & Goblin army, I've painted these guys to add some firepower.
First, the legendary Orc crossbowmen designed by Kev Adams. The biggest of them will act as their leader and is from Knightmare Miniatures.
Then, we have a "Goblin Ass Cannon" (which will certainly count as a mortar in terms of rules) from Red Bard Games.
And finally, an Orc shaman mounted on a war boar (also from Red Bard Games).

Norse Characters and Civilians
After completing the units for my Norse army, I still had some Norse minis to paint, mainly characters and civilians, and some sort of fighters/barbarians that I was at first planning to include in my Norse army, but then changed my mind.
These miniatures are from Red Box Games, Reaper Miniatures and Hasslefree Miniatures.

Svetlana, Frost Giant Princess
I enjoyed painting this wonderful miniature (from Reaper Miniatures). This Frost Giant Princess will be a nice addition to my Norse army. Additionally, she's of the same size as the two other Giants (or Jotuns) I have painted some time ago (here and here, both from the Blood Rage boardgame).
Of Wolf and Man (2)
This is the last unit of my Norse army, now all are painted. These guys (the Ulfwerenars) can be devastating provided that 1) they reach the enemy lines safely, 2) they change form when expected...
Next post will be about Norse characters, civilians and other surprises.
