Hi All,
We had a rollicking game of 'Forbidden Psalm' this past Friday for which I blitzed a few figures for the scenario. Being jazzed on the fun I managed to get a couple extra done this weekend.
First up are three 'Disembowelled Ghouls'. These marvellously manky mooks are from Knucklebone Miniatures. I regret to say that no fancy lotions or skin serums are going to help these lads.

Three 'Sock Goblins' from Westphalia Miniatures. I particularly like the guy with the dirty sock pulled over his honker, taking a big snort.
A group of poor deaduns from Vae Victus Miniatures. An admittedly fast and choppy paintjob. *cringes* In my defence, I figure they're dead and aren't really meant to look their best.
Three doughty adventurers ready to go dungeon traipsing. We have: 'Tim the Torchbearer', 'Cathcart the Cat Catcher' and 'Gundalf the Fire Wizard' (with his trusty 'Wand of .45 Magic Missiles'). I really enjoyed working on all these figures, especially the pink boa for Gundalf (I envision him as a fearless, fashion-forward kind of guy). Tim and Gundalf are Knucklebone designs, while Cathcart is from Collective Studio.

And finally the big punchline to last Friday's adventure: 'The Corpse Collector'! His jam is that after he slaps you around for a bit, he swipes you up and impales you up on his Thule Corpse Rack (TM). This way he keeps you fresh for future road nibbles. I know, eewww! This big boy is from PrintYourMonsters.
As to points, we have nine 30mm figures, eleven 30mm half-figures and a 90mm boss monstie. The 30mm stuff should come to 72.5 points, and as to the 'Collector', let's equate him as a 28mm vehicle for 20 points (a precedent we've used in past years for these larger models). If that seems right with our esteemed Minion then this lot should give me 92.5 points, or thereabouts.
Oh, and 17 skulls! :)
Thanks for popping in for a peak!

Quite the electric mix of models for a games night! I quite like the wizard and his .45 magic missles.. reminds me of a barbarian who can cast fist and smash 😅 And the dead bodies look the biz even if run through the slapchop method (not that it's that clear this was the case!).
And will give you the benefit of the doubt on the 'Collector' there as he does seem rather large!
Great work Curt!

I do love those wonderfully characterful Knucklebones models, and done them proud Curt!
ReplyDeleteThanks Paul! Yes, he's become one of my favourite sculptors.
DeleteAnother incredible entry with very cool minis and amazing painting, hard to say which is my favorite, so much eye candle.
ReplyDeleteThank you Kent!
DeleteThey are really nice.
ReplyDeleteForbidden Psalm is quite a fun game, with some unique monsters. These sculpts and paintwork are really in theme with the cool aesthetic of the game.
ReplyDeleteThanks Geoff! Yes, FP is fairly simplistic but it oozes (sprays?) fun and character.
DeleteSome lovely painting here. Nothing scarier than a wizard with a gun!
ReplyDeleteYou speak the truth, Peter! :)
DeleteGreat figures Curt with some really nice colour choices. I had fun with the game on Friday.
ReplyDeleteCheers Peter!
DeleteI've got to get some of the Knucklebones. How many skullz?
ReplyDeleteAh, thanks for reminding me: 17 skulls for Mr. McSkullyface.
DeleteVery characterful figures, Curt. A pink boa is a bold choice for adventuring.
ReplyDeleteI figure it'll compliment the viscera and bloodshot eyes. :)
DeleteAnother superb entry Curt, I'm amazed by what you produce. I saw a few people in morning surgery today who looked as unwell as those in picture 2! That corpse collector is stunning
ReplyDeleteCheers Kerry (I think). :) They are rather icky aren't they.
DeleteA fabulously grotesque submission on front end and brilliant hero figures on the backend. Love the goblins and love the .45 cal wand. Well done Curt.
ReplyDeleteThank you Bruce! Delighted you like them. :)
DeleteGreat to see miniaturised (inspired by) Mork Borg. Lovely work.
ReplyDeleteThanks Bart!
DeleteGood job, Curt. I especially like the adventurers. That, and that there are no adventure look-a-likes in the deaduns group.
ReplyDeletePoor peasants always get the short end.
DeleteLove the figures and painting - think Gandalf with the SMG and the Night-watchman are my favourites. Cheers Jez
ReplyDeleteI really like Gundalf as well. :)
DeleteGot to love the cat catcher- what does he do with them, do they power some mysterious moggie magic methinks!
ReplyDeleteSomething nefarious to be sure. Then again cats can be pretty evil...
DeleteGreat work dude! I love that things somehow get worse for the ghouls. Like, you are not just undead - but we'll make sure you are disembowelled AND undead...
ReplyDeleteI know, right?! They really need to form a union.
DeleteThese are great, I am especially drawn to 'Tim the Torchbearer'
ReplyDeleteHe's holding a torch for you as well, Paul. ;)
DeleteFantastically diverse group of figures and very nicely painted. The wizard reminds me of the old Citadel wizard with a gun. Fun figure.
ReplyDeleteYes! He does at that! Thanks for the comment.
DeleteTerrific... or terrorific... not sure which of the two words to use... or to use both. As usual, top notch work, Curt
ReplyDeleteThank you Benito!
DeleteSome wild minis Curt and lovely brushwork to bring them to life. I particularly like the Disembowelled Ghouls who are both super creepy and disgusting.
ReplyDeleteCheers mate. Yeah, no getting around it, they are awfully icky.
DeleteSuitably creepy work dude! I can almost smell 'em from here :-)
ReplyDeleteYup, I suspect they are rather a rather malodorous lot.
DeleteThese are wonderfully characterful figures made even better by your superb painting Curt, great work!
ReplyDeleteThank you Sander. You're very kind.
DeleteLovely Curt, the Corpse Collector is both awesome and slightly scary at the same time 😁
ReplyDeleteMission accomplished! :) Cheers Ken.
DeleteSome weird and wonderful figures you have their Curt, all painted beautifully too!
ReplyDeleteThanks Ray!
DeleteYou always come out with such eclectic miniatures but that Gundalf is a particular highlight, well done with these!
ReplyDeleteYuck. Great painting though. I think that fantastic Gundalf is actually Rincewind with a gun, don’t know If that’s the greatest idea though…
