Second, we have Reaper's "Nadia of the Blade" (Dark Heaven Legends #03409), which was part of an assortment of figures my girlfriend Gina got me for Christmas. She'll be a Barbarian in a second, all-female Frostgrave warband I'm putting together. I love that she has actual musculature instead of being cheesecake-in-chainmail, and her posture suggests some serious attitude.
I definitely went with a Red Sonja-influenced color scheme for her, and I tried to keep everything else as "cool" as I could to emphasize the bright red hair - silver chainmail, pale gray fur vest, wrist-band and boots, pale skin.
Apparently her sword is supposed to be straight, but on the piece I got it was bent juuuuuuuuuust right to look like a scimitar instead of a longsword. Sure fooled me!
Here's a final comparison shot of Nadia and the Trolls to give a sense of scale. Nadia's worth 5 points, and I'm hoping the wise and benevolent Tamsin will count the Trolls as a larger scale :)
Very nice work Bill! Great use of blue on the trolls - I'm going to score them as 54 mm figures, so this submission will give you 25 points.As for Nadia, I believe she was modelled on a certain redheaded flight attendant, not Red Sonja :)
Good work Bill!
ReplyDeleteAnn Margaret musical gone fantasy. Well done!
ReplyDeleteLove the trolls, very evocative.
ReplyDeleteI have that troll too he's a great figur but I am using him as a Frostgiant. Very well painted.
ReplyDeletevery nice Bill. I like the barbarian for once a realistic barbarian with a normal sized weapon.
ReplyDeleteReally nice!
ReplyDeleteGentlemen prefer redheads.
ReplyDeleteGreat figures Bill. I love the SNL reference. Cheers Peter
ReplyDeleteTamsin, does this mean that you'll be modelling your fur and chain mail bikini collection for us? Peter
ReplyDeleteYou got the skin just right, they do look frightful in a good way ;-)

Great work! Especialy like the trolls.
ReplyDeleteNice work on these. Reaper do make some lovely figures.
ReplyDeleteOh, very cool! (No pun intended...)
ReplyDeleteYou're rockin' it with these Trolls Adam. Literally and figuratively. :)
ReplyDeleteVery nice trolls, I really like the rocky armour skin on them. Very nice brushwork!
ReplyDeleteVery nice on all of these!
