Heavy Hitters: Signifer, Dominar, and Ogre Breacher |
Rip and Tear lads! |
Together they form a warband for the Warhammer skirmish game Warcry that I call the 'HateForged' and are lead by Dave the Dominus - not to be confused with the other Dave who is neither the Dominus or as imposing as he stands at only 4 foot 3inches tall.
Dave and other Dave (no relation) |
There was some debate at the forming of this intrepid group that they be called "The League of Extraordinarily Murderous Gentlemen" but a Nether Realm judge considered this to be too similar to an existing IP and a Cease and Desist Order was issued. Such is the way of things in the badlands of the Blood Spoil regions.
Ready for Trouble, one way or another |
I went for an antique Greek style with a slightly rusted/tarnished look to go with Deep Sea diver helmets. It was also a colour experiment, using a brown/metallic monochrome style with accents from the blue/green verdigris and red blood splashes. I think it worked out OK, but it does lack a certain 'pop'.
This duo deliver a slightly ranged effect to the team |
Actually, I understand their rules are kinda underpowered but the models just look too cool to not paint. Such is the way of things...
