"Gargoyle" Bloodthirster

My kids have now grown old enough (ripe old age of 3 and 6) to play Heroquest with me. I want to play with a painted set, but the original figures might not be a joy to paint. Luckily there are plenty of old Warhammer figures to use! Here's the gargoyle. Better pack your brodesode!

I tried to do a "glowing hot iron" effect on the horns. Works for an oldhammer figure.

The figure is based on a 25mm base so I can still put it on a Heroquest board. I was afraid that the small base would make the figure unsteady but it's surprisingly stable. I think the center of gravity is pretty close to the center of the base.


Scale creep *sigh*

Goblin Wolf Riders

A bunch of old Goblin wolf riders off my oldhammer pile. Nothing inspirational but I think they'll complement Grom and his chariots nicely to form the fast attack force of the army.
