From SanderS - More Heroquest figures (80 points)

Hoi, So here's a surprise: more Heroquest figures from me. The game really benefits from as many scenario specific figures as you can manage to gather. I have managed to obtain quite a lot of "mercenaries" made for the game. These all resemble the early Empire soldiers with a quasi Landsknecht-ish uniform. I have already painted some up in black and some others in white so needed yet another different scheme, after some consideration I ended with the Ultramarines of the Empire: the Reiksguard.

There are several different weapons options and by leaving the hands with weapons unglued you can switch them out as needed. Since I have so many figures I just glued them on anyway.

So to distinguish between the weapon-types it looked like a good idea to do differently coloured plumes, they are all black with a different coloured tip.

Yellow plumes for the Halbardiers, blue for the greatswords and green for the scouts (sword and buckler). The officer, carrying a greatsword, has a white plume.

I also painted up some more single figures, 2 heroes and a monster. First up is the monster. It's an old school metal figure of a Pink/ Blue Horror from the Warp. It is fun when a daemon is summoned so here it is. Since my skills in blending are rubbish I decided to go with a classic case of dry brushing.

Then on we go towards another wizard. There's a website that's a true treasure trove for HQ called Ye Olde Inn and there you can get cards for all lores of magic, including Chaos, Skaven and so on. So having a lot of wizards is a good thing. I already have a bright (or fire) wizard but I could also use a blue one to depict the lore of air or water. It's a Zealot miniatures version of the HQ wizard and here he is:

Last but not least is a Hasslefree thief, but at a pinch, I could also use her as a sorceress. This is a lovely figure that just about painted herself...

There are 16 figures in this lot which should be good for another 80 points.

Cheers Sander

More heroquest goodness and a great looking set f models. I love the wizard, he has so much energy it's a great figure. And the sultry sorceress in nicely done too. I like the fact you have distinguished the various Reiksguard figures with different plumes. A nice solid 80 points for this lot.
