From AdamC: Coyotes (15 points)

A very small and unimpressive offering this week 

My friend Dave from Bloody Scotsman Games made these up as part of the wild animals for his various Devil in the Wilderness games. 
Having some scruffy looking animals is always handy for the table. 

You can see one is lacking a tail, I'm happy to use the guys who don't print out quote right.  They are 25mm scale so if we count them as 'infantry' they would be 5 points each for 15 points in total. 

==============================

Sylvain: This might be a first: there is no label "coyote" in the index of the Painting Challenge.  A very interesting idea to add wildlife in the background. You did a great job at representing the fur on these miniatures. Extraordinaire!

  2. Fine work, but brings to mind the coyotes that lurk around the city here these days, and the useless people who think they are "harmless"!

    Any game that sees these things hunted down would be a interesting game for me...

    1. I've heard it said that they keep the raccoon population down. My go to lamb farmer would agree BTW.

  3. Great work Adam. Obviously one had an accident along the way. Animals provide table colour and can be used as dummy markers etc.

  6. Excellent wild life. We also have coyote problems in the Dakotas. They tend to stay in gulch type areas and in fields, but can be near town. Last year a ladies rather small dog was carried off and only rescued by luck. Reason to have a large dog if you live on the side of a gulch.

    1. They are active here, Actually saw one (presumably helping others) chasing deer in our yard last summer.

  7. Nice lurkers for your game's background. We have a large coyote population in our urban area due to preserves, deer, raccoons and idiots who feed them.
