More changelings…

So May and June ran away from me. Did some bits, now and then, but life, heat and depression got in the way. Anyhoo…


 So, I was a changeling short for the base rules and ordered the standing blight from the same Etsy seller who ended up sending me another crouching one as well. All set for changeling needs now.

I’m a fickle beast…

 This may be my third choice for hobgoblins for Silver Bayonet. I was going through some 3D prints I’d ordered from Etsy and found these fellas having put them in the (no longer mostly) lead pile. The exposed skulls, extended limbs, protruding horny growths and bones so fits the fluff of corrupted humans I’m annoyed I’d forgotten about them.



They are more suited to 32mm as that is the fantasy standard nowadays and I should have asked them to printed undersized to match historicals, but the spindly otherness works for me.

 

Possessed

A Possessed for The Silver Bayonet, a Madman from the Carnevale range of miniatures. A smidge bigger than a historical Perry Miniatures figure, but with the pose and arms restrained, it’s not really noticeable unless you compare his feet, which would be Sasquatchian in proportions.



The straight jacket was invented in the mid-late 1700’s, so that confirmed my figure choice with attempts to restrain the possessed soul.

And some adversaries…

And a couple of Goatkin from Crooked Dice. Despite earlier plans I think these may end up doing duty as hobgoblins for the Silver Bayonet.

must be a blue moon…

 … as apparently I painted something!

OK, I did these back in June I think but didn’t add the grass and tufts until this weekend gone. It’s been quiet over the summer though, job is knackering me and free time is limited. The heat didn’t help. But I did eke some stuff out, including some bark rocks and these fellas… werewolves and a changeling for The Silver Bayonet.


3D prints from Etsy, lovely minis. They’re about the height of a Perry human so not too massive, although I’ve based them on 30mm bases.

The changeling is also a 3D print from Etsy, some kind of Wood Elf creature I think. I absolutely love it and figured it could pass as a changeling as described in the rules, with a more natural magic feel to it. Slender but perfect for a 25mm base.

Hobgoblin and Pixie for the Silver Bayonet

More creatures for the Silver Bayonet. 

In TSB, hobgoblins are humans warped and corrupted by the fairy world. This fella was a joy to paint. A 3D printed Hill Giant, in a small scale, so not so giant. Turns out I need two, so will need to get another one.



Base still to do as I wait for decent spraying weather.

And a 10mm Wood Elf Sorceress for my Pixie. Another 3D print from Etsy.  I removed the excessive flower/nature spell effect though. Amazing detail on something so small.

Size comparison…

Various Silver Bayonet WIP


The supernatural investigator is converted from the Perry Royal Navy Landing Party (getting good use out of those). The Navy rosette was removed from his top hat and with his tasseled military boots cut back and turned into riding boots with greenstuff, with the right paint again, he’s something of a dandy adventurer. 

The final clue marker is almost done, still quite pleased with these.

And a Living Armour, an animated  suit of armour as per the random encounter table. It’s a Perry War of the Roses knight with his face carved out. Still some work to do on that one.


And goblins WIP, in this case Reaper Gremlins that I think fit the job quite nicely. I want my fairy foes to be quite slight, and they are bloody tiny.
