Warhammer Quest Silver Tower was the first in a new series of branded dungeon crawlers from Games Workshop released in 2016. It is a modelling hobby product, and the 51 included miniatures are exceptionally good. I was not writing up painting journeys at the time i painted the set in 2016-17, but decided to look back on it during the build up to the new and exciting 4th release in the series to be called Cursed City. As a model set i think this remains one of favourite ones as the models are amazing.
The first three heroes include the Darkoath Chieftain, Fireslayer Doomseeker dwarf and Tenebrael Shard elf. |
The next three heroes are the Mistweaver, Warpriest, and Knight-Questor. |
The two main enemy bosses, a huge Ogroid and the Silver Tower Sorceror, these remain two of the best enemies from the whole series. |
The Tzaangors come as two sets of the same models, so i decided to paint them in alternative colours, green & orange and blue & purple. I really like these part bird models. |
The Acolytes similarly are two sets of the same models, so again i split them into a more standard human skin and decided to paint a corrupted blue skin set with red shields and armour. It seemed a good idea at the time anyway. |
Next are the Skaven Deathrunners and Scuttlings, the Silver Tower version of mutated goblins. Again great models and nice to have something other than another standard goblin set. |
The Chaos Horrors coming in pink, blue and brimstone versions, and finally the small familiars which again i split into two colours to separate and distinguish them. I am very happy with how this set ended up, even though i did start to rush it a little once i knew Hammerhal was coming out. |
