These two are from the Shadows of Brimstone kickstarter that arrived just before I went away and are a lot better than those in the first figures delivered. The robot is called the Guardian and comes from the ancient city on the Targa Plateau. Quite a surprise for the characters you start with, who are cowboys.
The interesting thing to note is that these are... quite large. The 28mm priest is just for scale, he was completed just before the challenge started.
but these are only classed as XL monsters. There are XXL monsters still to come ;)
Points wise, I'm not sure... probably small vehicles?

Great to have you back Paul! These two beasties are very imposing and you've done a terrific job on them. I like how you put a bit of rust and corrosion on the robot's carapace-like shoulders suggesting he's been sitting dormant in the sand until recently disturbed. I also think you've done a great effect with the eyes and toungue of the sandworm. I can't imagine facing off against these two with only six-shooters in hand, but I guess that's why they call them heroes in the game!
As you suggest, we'll count these as 28mm vehicles for points. So, 30 more pips for you to start your climb back up the roster.

Awesome job love the guardian. I have shadows of brimstone as well but have only primed the minis. Rather dislike the models overall but they sure do look good with a bit of paint.
ReplyDeleteSome of the models do miss the mark somewhat. I'm planning on sticking them all together and only painting the bits that will see play outside of SoB. The shoddy figures (mostly the humans) will be replaced with 28mm equivalents when I find some
DeletePainting historical uniforms can be nor not difficult but entails no imagination. Fantasy and SF models requires creativity and imagination (which I totally lack) Excellent work Paul
ReplyDeleteVery cool Paul - that Guardian is rather ominous!
ReplyDeleteLovely stuff Paul :)
ReplyDeleteGreat nasties Paul!
ReplyDeleteLovely looking monsters!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Some splendid work on these organic and inorganic beasties, well done Paul!
ReplyDeleteI like it.
ReplyDeleteThanks all!
ReplyDeleteGreat work Dave!
ReplyDeleteGreat work! I love the metallic painting on the Guardian, and especially the weathering on the plates. Very subtle, but really good. The Terralisk is wonderful - and I'm shuddering to think what the XXL Monsters are like. You're gonna need more priests!!
ReplyDeleteWow, impressive stuff!
ReplyDeleteNice work, Paul! That robot is a huge clanking monster in nicely aged metal and the critter is really painted well in all it's grisly, gribbly form. They would ruin anyone's day!
