Onod makes a rare appearance to discuss the process of building an MESBG army, along with Mayor and Sebastian. OT is also here. Sebastian's Instagram: / swpaintingstudios
Another great episode chaps!! I came 4th in my first ever tourney, which began with my 2nd game of mesbg! I just used all the rohan models i had, which meant a mix of mounted and foot so no LL but as many characters as i could squeeze in! The biggest driving force and obstacle to collecting for me is availability, id love to complete some of my forces but ebay/gw are determined to see me defeated 😤 the problem is that so many of the coolest characters and models are just permanently unavailable 😂
In MESBG, not so much- because I'm choosing something from the lore, and then basing the army on it. In another game though, which doesn't focus so much on pre-existing characters- for sure, I'll make a back story, and aim for a play style that suits it. I'm sure the others would to some extent too, though maybe not as much as me 😅 - Onod
@@zelot113 Nah that's cool, I've thought of that, or like a blue mountains clan of dwarves. So real world links, they reminded me of Germanic tribes, so I've painted the warriors different colours with a corresponding hero, to match German Football clubs. So Thryden is Beyern, Gorulf Dortmund, Oathmaker Shalke/Hertha, Frida is Frankfurt. Then "in game lore" I've thought the Oathmaker is blue, so he that can be because they live near the river isen, so used lot of Celtic swirls like water. Frida is black and white, so she can be from the ruins of tharbad and have tower-bridge imigary. Thryden has wolf imigary obviously. And Gorulf Bear imigary, heralding from nearer the forests of Edenwaith, and yellow sortof matches honey for bears lol. May have gone a bit overboard, but oh well lol
I had the same problem as Onod. Saw Beornings, thought oh, Beorn is cool in the books, they're a bit niche, I'll go for them. Saw they were meta (and price) and immediately put me off.
