Our lonely hobbits stumble into the Pit of the Pendulum and trigger the attention of a multitude of spiders!
These ants and spiders are a dollar store pickup around halloween. They came in little baggies of 50 a piece and I knew would make excellent minions for a rangers of shadow deep spider force. These are based on 25mm bases and are 28mm scale.
It has been an excellent challenge painting some more earthy toned fantasy creatures. I actually have a Chilean rose hair tarantula so I was a least mentally prepared before I had done my research. These figures are all 28mm in scale.
Points:
10 Ants - likely half of a 28mm figure = 25 points
10 Little spiders - same points as the ants = 25 points
4 spider hatchlings - same points as previous = 10 points
3 mirkwood spiders = Likely 54mm foot figure @ 10 points a piece = 30 points
10 giant spiders = 40mm foot figures @ 7pts ea = 70 points
20 bonus pts for challenge submission
Total: 180 points
Awesome work, love the beasties
ReplyDeleteLove those Mirkwood spider colours. And dryer sheets for webs?! Consider that stolen. :) Wonderful work Scott!
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff....creepy bloody spiders
ReplyDeleteSplendid looking arachnids! They look ace and I love half of them came from the pound store!

Excellent bunch of creepy crawlers! The dollar store is a veritable Aladins Cave of materials.
ReplyDeleteCreepy little buggers. Nice work
ReplyDeleteI positively hate spiders, specially such awesome looking realistic ones, well done!
ReplyDeleteOooh, impressively creepy guys, Scott! You've brought them to life in all their silent, crawling creepiness!! Great work!!
ReplyDeleteMy skin is itching just looking at those!
ReplyDeleteRegards KenR
I would like to say that I like them Scott, but spiders creep me out!
ReplyDeleteI hope we don't have any arachnophobes on the challenge, some of those look scarily realistic. Nice work.
ReplyDeleteWell done! I better don't show the pictures to my wife though...
ReplyDeleteThey’ve come up really well! The dryer sheets is a very clever idea.
ReplyDeleteTwo Mirkwood spiders from GW would set me back $60- I don’t know who they’re kidding...
They look great, suitably creepy. Smart sourcing too!
