The Devil's in the Details

Here is another plastic mini for a miniatures game. This is Nasier Longhorn from the game Wrath of Kings by Cool Mini or Not. Beyond that I don't no much else about the game, though I did buy a Heroes Box for one of the other factions. I picked them up because 1. the figures look great and 2. they were on sale 😊 The plastic was firmer than the Rum and Bones models and much firmer than Reaper Bones - more like Games Workshop - which made it easier to clean up. The Specialist Box 1 includes 2 figures which are actually kits. Assembly was straight forward and I really appreciated the thought that went in to how the pieces fit to minimize seams. I more or less followed the colour scheme on the box art but I went with a warmer red, The base is homemade from a chunk of cork with flocking and skulls from Games Workshop. The base bottom is actually a slice of a walnut that a friend of mine gave me. He paints too so he collects them from his yard and makes a bunch of bases at a time. I think they look great and have used them for several of my projects

The Queen of Crazy

Knight Models make excellent figures in a variety of scales. Their Marvel/DC superheroes and Star Wars characters are amazing. This is a small (28-30mm) scale Harley Quinn is from their Batman Miniatures Game. The figure represents Harley from the Batman animated series (which is awesome btw). The figure is deceptively simple looking but painting was not with out its challenges mainly due to the fine details. Also the figure is very delicate meaning you want to be careful during clean up and mounting. I almost broke her ankle fixing her to the base. The base is a simple homemade job made with a piece of tread-plate patterned plastic card and a slightly thicker smooth piece which I roughed up a bit to look more like concrete. The colours for the pistol where inspired by a Nerf gun which I thought was appropriate for the character.

Foxy Lady

This is Vivienne the Sea Fox, the second of three figures from the Rum and Bones "La Brise Sanguine" heroes box. Rather that follow the box art, I took my inspiration from some steampunk fashion I found on Pinterest. I aslo took a lesson from the amazing painters at Big Child Creatives and experimented with varying colour tones and shadows by adding purples and blues shades. The deck is homemade from craft sticks roughed up with my x-acto with plastic rod for the nails.
