I believe I have passed 500 points for my Witch Hunters now, greatly helped by these Death Cult Assassins now costing 160 points. I plan on having two more, taking them up to 240 points. Inlcuding the Eversor Assassin takes the army up to almost 350 points!

I have finally finished the Eversor assassin for my upcoming Witch Hunters Army. Because of work it has taken me about two weeks from start to finish, and unfortunately, this is reflected in the paint job. Still, this is a gaming piece, and as I hope to actually field this army at 1500 points, I cannot let a single miniature's paint job take forever.

This Officio Assassinorum Operative is painted with the technique "extreme highlighting", which I clearly do not yet master. Practice makes perfect, I presume, but at a distance he looks quite nice. It is only up close that the imperfections becomes apparent.

For the army, the next project is boosting the number of Battle Sisters. I have only six of them painted at the moment, with three more on the way. As this army is going to be a rag-tag band of lots of different troop types, I thankfully won't be tired of painting lots of sisters, as i plan on having no more than two dozen of them, including the Canoness.
