WarGods Minis Month '13 Update 02

This update has 3 Asar Archers in the Heirakonpolis color scheme (blues and whites to fit in with my general Heru colors).

 With these 3 the unified Asar Archer unit is brought up to minimum strength of 10. There's going to be an Archer Captain coming and eventually a few other Archers...

WarGods Minis Month '13 Update 01

With the launch of the WarGods of Olympus Kickstarter campaign,I've decided to dedicate the month of June to WarGods-related painting. Kicking it all off we've got a Heru Hero conversion from the Ægyptus line and a Spartan painted up as a skirmish character from the Olympus line...

'Captain Panaka' the Heru Hero converted from a spearman with a sword arm from one of the Basti Harem Guards and a shield from someplace I can't recall (one of the Olympus heroes?).

'The Fallen Hoplite' Spartan Hoplite figure painted up for use as a lone mercenary character for skirmish gaming. His shield is from the Wargames Factory Amazons box.

What surprise does WarGods Minis Month hold? Well they're surprises so I won't tell you. But I can hint that there will be a chariot, some monsters, a mix of Crocodile Games figs and figures from other companies that fit in the WarGods world for a little variety.

ToTanem Spearman 4

Another Totanem Spearman done!

 This was a headless master that Fitz let me have a long time ago. To get him a head I did a crappy little pressmold of one of the hammerer's head and came up with a not great little head. Some bad sculpting to fix it and I got it to look about halfway decent.

And here he is with another Spearman that has an actual original head...

Indiegogo Harem Girls Minis Arrive- Size Comparison

The 3 Harem Girls with 3 WarGods minis in various stages of painting. They are shorter than the WG figures but I think they'd fit in well. I have a couple of conversion ideas that willmake some of these useful in units...

More Black Quills and the Scorpion MoW

There are more pics at the main minismith's blog of these three. Here's a comparison shot of the Scorpion-themed Mistress of Words and the 2 newest Kekooee Seshket objectives.

And an alternate view of the Mistress of Words from the front. This is definitely one of my Top 5 Favorite Fitz female sculpts...

2 Objectives- Black Quill and Sword in a Stone

A Black Quill (Kekooee Seshket) and a magical Sword in a Stone...

The Kekooee Seshket have been mentioned before- magical quills created during the Aten Heresy. I figured it was about time I made one so that a possible campaign to collect the surviving Quills could at least be a possibility. The base is a resin 20mm scenic base that came with a Scibor mini.

Here we have a scene from this hypothetical campaign- Shefdu Sootootma challenging an Apophisphinx to claim one of the Kekooe Seshket.

This Sword in a Stone happened because of a broken plastic sword from the Wardame's Factory Amazons box. I lamented for about 20 seconds and then thought "hey it's like that broken sword Hellboy had that time-- OR I could have it sticking out of some kind of rock." Well the rock idea won.

The 'stone' is a chunk of foam that comes in many minis blister packs. I cut it so it looked vaguely stone-like and then slopped some glue and some liquid greenstuff on it to try to make it smooth. It's not so smooth. Maybe it's a meteor with a prize inside?

I think it came out pretty well for a spur of the moment project. It will be useful in several setting too.

Some figures to show off the size....

Objective- Evil Bookstand

In a continuing effort to get all the little extras that come with some character minis painted up for game use, I present the Evil Bookstand.

I'm not sure if the book is evil or the stand, but they both turned out pretty good.

The Priest of Apophis with the bookstand for comparison.
