Hi folks,
Apologise for the multiple entries this week, but previous challenges required individual entries for the map, and I'm not sure if that rule has changed!
Having jumped out of Lady Sarah's Limo at the Sci-Fi studio, my entry here is a rather large 28mm infantry/monster figure in the form of a Chaos Spawn - really, a larger model on a 40mm base from the GW 'Accursed Cultist' set. I've counted this figure as 'mounted'. Nothing says Sci-Fi to me like the 40k universe.
In Necromunda, Chaos Cult gangs can make attempts to convert 'volunteers' or captured enemy fighters into Chaos Spawn. Basically, summoned deamons which cause the host to mutate in horrible and violent ways. One of the interesting things is that when you create a spawn, the stats are randomly generated. However, after each game used, there is a chance the spawn runs off into the underhive - hopefully never to be seen again!
This figure is suitable grim, with the possession still ongoing and the poor 'volunteer' along for the ride. Thankfully, someone provided him with some pointy stilts so that he can still feel involved in the whole process of eating others flesh and souls.
I spent a lot of time thinking about what model to use to represent this option in my games, before spotting this set and settling on this figure. Thankfully Ebay allows the purchase of individual models from sets!
Minion Miles: In the future you can combine your submissions so there is one for your allotted day. However this is such a nice figure it does deserve it's own special mention!
A cool trilogy of grim dark figures, well done!
