My two heroes, a Skaven Warlord and Warplock Engineer, are two of my favorite models of all time. I painted the Warlords shoulder pad green to match my Stormvermin. Unfortunately, the Engineer looks too glossy due to the old school inks I used on him, but I still think he looks great.

Skaven Heroes
When I graduated from high school, I was gifted with a whopping two hundred dollars that I decided to buy a Warhammer army with. And buy one I did. I went to Borderlands in Salem, Oregon (which is still my favorite gamestore) and picked up the recently released boxset of Skaven. It then took me almost 4 years to paint everything in that box. I really like having a fully painted army even though I've rarely played with them and it is fun being able to see the pieces and have a nice way to see how my painting has improved over that time.

Blast from the Past Part 1
Privateer Press's Warmchine line, Cygnar Warcaster Allister Caine. I thought it was one of the coolest models I had ever seen way back in 2004 and it was the first model I felt really proud about painting. Looking back on it now, the eyes are wonky, the metals sub par, and the cloak not well blended. But it was a total pleasure to paint.
Things that were new to me at the time were trying to paint the goatee and using multiple metallics. I still like how his armor turned out and I keep it in my display case as a lesson.
