I say the purchase as a chance for some cross-system efficiency. Obviously I'll be able to play Wrath of Kings with some people in my area... but that's not all! These models could also easily be used for Frostgrave- either as a warband itself or as an Atlantean play on the 'Thaw of Lich Lord" campaign. Finally I figured they could help round out my theoretical Trident Realms army in Kings of War!
Some aquatic bases WIP's. |
What they look like when finished, with some highlighting along the outside and lichen 'coral'. |
My first test model, a Hadross Deepman. |
I went with yellow on the weird tentacles to lighten him up some. |
A Hadrossian Kaxes. The Hadross take a bio-armor approach that is very organic... but its occasionally difficult to tell what is flesh, cloth or plate. |
Thankfully a little more colorful on the back what with the pouches and occasional tentacle. Since metal would rust/tarnish, I've decided to give the blades a ceramic or bone look. |
I think I need to work a bit on defining the fins out from the plate/skin a bit on future models- but still a very cool figure. |
Finally my Hadrossian Deepcaller. A conduit for the mysterious 'Deep Voices'. He came out much brighter than his cohorts, which I like. |
But MAN is he a weird one. |
Great stuff. Love the base work.

Thank you. It was a struggle to get the color for aquatic to feel right, but I'm pretty happy with it.
