Hey everyone !
Following the heroes I painted for Darkwater, here are the villains I need to play the tutorial before we can move onto the main quest !

The Mire Kelpies are weird little elementals of mud or something (I have to confess I haven't read much into the lore yet, in my mind, I'm just thinking about water horse demons from traditional folklore). Given the Nurgley theme of the game, I first wanted to make them mudy and brown but it would have looked too much like a Bristol chart entry so opted for some greens, bone colours and traces of blood to make it all creepy.
Now the tokens in the game are particularly inspiring and small models like this are always such a joy to paint !
They're no nurglings but still totes adorbz.
I'll be painting the beastmen and shaman next to get a game soon enough I hope !
Happy painting to you all !
They're great. The minis are very inspiring and your paint is perfecr : not too daek, wish nice colour touches but nit too bright to keep it swampy and disturbing.
ReplyDeleteThe sculpts honestly open several ways to interpret them so I wanted them to make sense
DeleteShould have proofread my message to avoid so many mistakes sorry...
DeleteThey totally make sense !
Liking where you took your schemes on these. Lovely sculpts.
ReplyDeleteThanks, it tok a bit of thinking but once I ws set it was easy !
DeleteThey look phenomenal - and extra points for a reference to the Bristol scale, that’s specialist knowledge on show!
ReplyDeleteI reckon any Nurgle enthusiast has a thorough knowledge on the subject lol
DeleteI had to look up that Bristol Scale. Guess I'm not as much of a Nurgle fan as I thought....
DeleteYou're just in good health I guess ^^'
DeleteAwesome (and scary)!! Cool job
ReplyDeleteThanks mec !
