From PeterD: Seeress and Graeae (20 points)

It's been a slow start to my Challenge and I don't imagine I'll get anywhere my 500 point target. I am a University Instructor and had 120 students write their Calculus exams on December 20th.  I finally got my marks posted on Christmas eve, my daughter arrived for a week and a bit on Christmas then we had family stuff crop up.

I have some fantasy types from Bad Squiddo games.  First up is a Seeress.

Next the Graeae sister trio from Greek myth.  They had one eye and one tooth to share between them.  They appear in the tale of Perseus, who managed to outwit them by stealing their eye.  I'm not sure what's in the pot but the skulls and femurs indicate that I don't want to know.  I'd avoid their Irish stew and shepherd's pie.

I've painted many Bad Squid figures over the past years and like many of them, these are nicely posed and cast and easy to paint.  I went for very drab clothing and basic accoutrements.  I rarely paint eyes on my figures as they end up looking like racoons or pandas.  However, I thought I'd better paint irises on the eyeballs that two of the figures are carrying.  

I have no firm plans to use these figures, but they could fit into the early medieval era in the Beowulf D&D games that I've run in the past.  They could also be fielded in Pict armies for Midgard games with a fantasy element.

That's four 28mm figures for a total of 20 points.  These will count towards my first squirrel (for D&D figures), but I won't claim that until I get 25 points.

Sylvain: "You, Sir, are a gentlemen and a scholar" (Catcher in the Rye) These figurines are lovely but I especially like the academic description you provide. It gives a much deeper (and sinister?) aura to the Seeress and the Graeae. Joli travail!
