Afternoon guys and girls,
Something resembling normality is beginning to settle now in the real world so I've had some time to do a little hobbying.
Given my focus on painting and terrain of late(some stuff will appear in a future update) I have decided to do a little sculpting as a change of pace. It is also a change of setting with me moving to fantasy from my normal sci fi main stay.
Recently after some nagging from Nife I pledged for Mantics latest; kickstarter Dungeon Saga. It is the sort of little self contained fantasy game I have been after for a while as I've long had the itch to make a few fantasy things but without being tied directly to GWs universe.
Now its still over a year until I will actually have the game however mantic are putting the rules for using some of their Kings of War models in the game. After having a look through their undead list I hit upon the idea of Making a Revenant king and his entourage of Revenants, a female Necromance/sorceress, Wraith and eventually a Vampire and Liche.
So off I trotted to Mantics website and ordered a load of 25mm bases(same size and dungeon saga will be) a box of skeleton warriors and a few other bits(including an Asterian Deadzone faction more on them soon)
I also ordered a pack of warmachine models to use for conversion fodder.
So Enough Rambling, here is the heavily WiP Female Necromancer/Sorceress
She is based on a Cryx Witch Coven model from Warmachine. It scales in nicely with the mantic stuff and I rather liked the pose and armour. I have removed the original head and had a crack at sculpting my own for it. So far I'm pretty pleased with her
Next up is the Revenant king:
This guy is converted from stock Mantic Skeletons with GS and plasticard bits. I still need to sort out his arms but plan to have him with a 2 handed sword.
These have beena nice change to work on, I plan to have a selection of expanded enemies made in time for the release of Dungeaon saga next year so these will be rather sporadic updates over the next 12 months.
Thats it for now guys, I'll be back with a possible update mid week
Pre-emptive dungeon crawling
