What are you working on today?

[Ragnar IronFist]

I finished up a round of Talisman and some Descent painting. Now one of these days, I need to actually play these games....

[IvenBach]

Played Descent once or twice and liked it a couple years ago. Same with Talisman but it's was longer back. Neat painting makes for nice looking minis.

I'm writing a new quest pack, Eternal Kingdom.
Themes: eugenics, 4th wave feminism, treason, demon summoning, corruption.

It will incorporate some features from Return of the Witch-Lord (which will probably not receive a revision from me)
like the revolving room, the heroes being blasted by Bellthor and captured, a variation of Kessandria as a boss (the boss, in fact).
Fantasy tropes used: dark elves, witch elves, giant spiders, dryads, harpies, a city built into the forest.

The title, Eternal Kingdom, is the title of an album by Cult of Luna,
the quest titles are all direct or altered song titles from that album.
Why?
Because the theme and mood of the quest pack, when first conceived, was congruent with the album while I was listening to it.
We're talking about song titles like "Owlwood", "Ghost Trail", "Curse", "Mire Deep"...
I literally had quest titles first, and then ideas for the quests, using some inspiration from RotWL.

I like this, but I also rather like the Reaper Bones version. Bound to be a metal version, too.

I rather like that one too. Especially the fact that it has an *Play-Doh factory*!
But I'm too OCD to disregard the missing eye stalks on the reaper mini. It only got 4 eye stalks and then 2 weird displacer beast tentacles.
If it just had the 11 eyes it would be perfect.

You are looking at the wrong model GK. KK is referring to the Reaper Bones Mini called "Eye Beast", and you are looking at the "Tyrant of Darkness". I see your point about the Tyrant of Darkness. Adding displacer beast tentacles sounds like the mash-up on the cover of the 2nd edition Monstrous Compendium.

The Eye Beast has 7 eyes on stalks... Never looked too closely at it to think of a Play-Doh Factory. But I do see that now!! He is "walking" on the other 3 stalks, or maybe he's just looking for really small heroes that might be lurking in the base? There are a few really good paint jobs on this guy... which I cannot understand. My GW paint becomes a shiny mess on these Bones models. I will never buy more and would wait for the metal version like KK says.

Found this guy.

That's pretty good actually... But I'm too far with my own soo...

I was looking for a Mapinguari. His was the only I could find, but he wasn't selling them. He kindly put it on the site so I could buy one.

Printed some images I found online and mounted them for wall/ceiling art. Close up of it with little helper monster fingers to help hold it up.

[Reveal] Spoiler: 'Can anyone guess which game this is from?'

Altered Beast: source = http://orioto.deviantart.com/art/Beasts-Reunion-156318161

Mounted on ceiling above my friends bed. Came out much better than I was expecting.


I used this one as a trial run in preparation for making one for myself. It's not HQ related but still fantasy. Hope everyone's been well Ye Olde Inn.

[knightkrawler]

I'm well, indeed.
Come back more often.

I've continually been lurking but life (work, daughter, wife, and now summer) have kept me overly occupied. Gradually introducing more crafting to the displeasment of my wife. Mini painting has been sidelined for the present and somewhat forseable future. I have a few Ideas coming along though.
