(Thanks to Mrs. 1Mac for the pun).
I finished the gnoll magic user and leader. Again, these are Arcane Legions mummies with heads and tails from World of Warcraft boardgame minis, plus a fair amount of wood glue and Milliput. The heads on the magic-user's totem are the original mummy heads. The golden blob on the spear was the bit of Milliput I used to hide the bits of pins that I couldn't quite trim off; I have no idea what it actually represents, but it seems to work!

Seen from above, where you can get a good look at them, and vice versa! |
I have a WIP thread at Benno's with some more pics of these guys being painted. This is a busy season for me, but hopefully I'll have a completed gnollish band soon.
The command figures look fine to me! Go on!

Great job!
ReplyDeleteI like them. Bandy legged gnolls make more sense than bandy legged elves :P
ReplyDeleteI've always wondered about gnolls having tails though... Certainly the Warcraft and new incarnation of gnolls are tailed, but the old pictures never showed them as having tails (from what I can remember).
Thanks!
DeleteGnolls with tails are a bit like minotaurs with hooves, I guess; the trend being that beastmen are generally becoming more bestial. Not a bad thing, in my opinion; makes them seem more feral and scary.
Love your mission of making 1/72 scale fantasy :D
ReplyDeleteThanks! I love it too!
