I painted these figures over the long weekend with the goal of using them in a The Hero's Journey one-shot game based on The Last Kingdom.
They are a rough job, but they illustrate how rich the multi-part plastic kit market is, and what can be done with a bit of mix and match. The figures here are based primarily on the Gripping Beast plastic sets (Vikings, Saxons, and generic Dark Age Warriors and Dark Age Archers), with heads from Puppetswar, Frostgrave Wizards, and Oathmark Elf sets, and bits from the Gripping Beast Dark Age Picts and the Frostgrave Soldiers sets.
It truly is a golden age for RPG gamers.
I have steered clear of self assembly plastics so far.
ReplyDeleteMy reasoning: Not my scale, and painting is enough challenge without having to assemble the figures.
You provide a superb gallery illustrating the variety and character that self assembly plastics can offer.
Particularly for a deep collector, willing to mix and match.
