From ChrisW: Queen Victoria and some Egyptian cultists [135 points]

 


Up first is Queen Victoria and two companions, Abdul Karim and Muhammad Bakhsh (or at least my version of the trio) Not certain where the Queen figure came from (she was a slot based figure?) and she is a little simple with very subtle details. She is panted in many shades and highlights of black, black/grey and grey, with the overall outcome that she looks uniformly to be dressed in black...😑

For her two companions I sadly did not have any figures in proper uniform so I painted the two in somewhat fanciful outfits. One is from Pulp Figures (green) and I think the other is from Statuesque miniatures. I tried to make her look pale because she always looks so pale in pictures, but I think she may be a bit too corpse like.



Eureka Egyptian cultists

The red cloaked cultist were the easiest to paint as the colour scheme came to me very quickly. However the 9 other cultist took some experimentation and some thought before I was able to get them done. 

The Acolytes

The Anubis level

The inner order of Horus

The Great Leader 



That is it for this post, I may have one more left in me for this Saturday.

Third post of the day for you Chris and a nifty change of pace with some Victorian peeps and cultists! I like the cultists too, they'll come in handy for everything from Pulp gaming to Indiana Jones or even fantasy. Great work on these.

135 big points for you!
