Thank you! As it happens, I have a package of steel wool lying around from some woodwork project. This should be fun.

Well that's a fantastic how to. You should post up a separate thread in the crafting section that's some of your scenery things. They're pretty awesome.

How do you think solo Sellswords is going to be? I'm curious to see any solo games for anything but I don't know Sellswords much.

Thanks. I might be able to copy some of the terrain stuff from my blog to the forum at some point.

Regarding Sellswords, it's a cooperative game that can be played solo. You play a scenario that outlines some of the basics in terms of opponents, set-up, and objectives. The enemy figures don't exactly get their own "turn" in a traditional sense. Each player character rolls up to three dice for actions. Each successful roll means they get to perform an action. Each failure results in drawing from a deck of cards. Those cards can result in actions for enemy/NPC minis to take or other scenario events (sprung a trap, etc.) NPC actions can be summed up in a flow chart of how to move & attack. Seems like a decent system, and I've been following some battle reports on LAF & a few blogs. I'll probably post a separate thread in the skirmish game subform here with my own batrep(s)

Did a bit of spontaneous painting...

Sellswords sounds very interesting. I think I’ll take a peak. That undead beastie is really cool!

Jackalope!

...and a shot with a scale reference...

I really love this figure, both the sculpt and how the painting turned out.

Awesome. Where can I get one of those jackalopes from? or is that your own conversion?

Zygmund · « **Reply #1231 on:** May 17, 2018, 10:25:11 AM »

What is it?

I could google, but I'd prefer to hear the story of 'jackalope' and the miniature from you.

Jackalope's! Why they're the most feared creature on the Great Plains. Some claim they are just harmless amalgamation of hare and antelope but the truth is they are veracious flesh eating demon beasts that ride the lightning. A single jackalope can eat its way through a hundred head of steer in the span of a thunderclap. Its right to fear the lightning on the plains for the jackalope may be coming. But all is not lost, listen for the rolling thunder, for the rolling thunder heralds the Thunderbird the natural predator of the jackalope.

Any other interpretation of the jackapole is just lies.

Stonehaven miniatures. Real cutie. This could make a wonderous familiar for a crazy mage.

Oops, spellcheck fail, yeah that's the ticket.

A while back there was a small miniature company that made a few Americana folklore miniatures like squonks, jackelopes, hodags etc... Anybody have a clue if its still around I can't find them on the googlenets anymore and I dont see anything other then the jackelope on the stonehaven site.?

ZeroTwentythree · « **Reply #1238 on:** May 19, 2018, 04:39:22 AM »

Looking at their web site a few more times, I've become fond of several of their minis. I just wish they were more affordable!

At some point I need this one...

Never saw those, but sounds like a cool idea.

The Hermit and the Boar

Zygmund · « **Reply #1240 on:** May 19, 2018, 07:00:39 PM »

Nice brushwork!

Tell me about the models' manufacturer.

ZeroTwentythree · « **Reply #1241 on:** May 20, 2018, 05:18:14 AM »

The boar is from Reaper. I don't remember where or when I got the hermit. Maybe Gripping Beast or Foundry? (That's just a guess.)

Zygmund · « **Reply #1242 on:** May 20, 2018, 01:48:10 PM »

Oh yes, Reaper Dire Boar it is. Lookd different when painted. Their photo is not the best one.

I used mostly Stonehaven miniatures for my Halfling Frostgrave project. They are beautiful models, but looking at the prices (plus transatlantic shipping and customs charges) I don't know how I ever afforded to buy so many!

There seems to be an issue with the size of your jackalope ……………….

Kickstarter about to finish.

Warlord · « **Reply #1247 on:** May 23, 2018, 09:23:38 PM »

Perhaps its an issue with the size of a rider instead?

ZeroTwentythree · « **Reply #1248 on:** May 23, 2018, 10:14:04 PM »

I like the mount, but not the rider. Nor do I like the price tag for PVC.

A bit irrelevant anyway, since new "gaming" purchases are indefinitely on hold.

Xathrodox86 · « **Reply #1249 on:** May 25, 2018, 01:17:20 PM »

I want that model so freaking much.
