Thank you very much for your warm words.

Now for more stuff.

The kindly Mage, the Healer, the "Bloodless" (if my retranslation is right) and the Hermit to be drawn from the cards.

Fixed on the table will be the Mystic and the Doctor in the Village, the Peasant in the Tavern and the Vampire in his Stronghold


Not sure if the Mystic and and the Healer are the right figures for the job. Initially wanted Marauder Citizen CZ07 to do the job, but once I held him in my hands I found out he is a Cardinal.

Well actually it isn't, only the Characters are. This one belongs to the Night Horror range.

Welf, if they're a hassle to store I'm sure I could make some room at my place.  :-*

Really like the hermit fella. The bauer (builder?!) looks like a guy you don't want to mess with - what's the application, don't remember ever meeting a builder?

Now that's a kind offer, but my storage problems will be solved by the start of august.

The translation is Peasant. While entering the Tavern you got to roll a dice.

1: Get drunken, miss one round (currently painting a Table Maid)
2: you get in a fight with a Peasant Strength 3 That's the one
3: lose a gold while gambling (need a Gambler for it, any idea?)
4: win a gold while gambling (see above)
5: a Magician offers you to teleport you to any field in the region (have some idea for it)
6: a Boatman offers to take you to the Temple (should I take Boatman Johann or Ranger Spear 5?)

What a great set of pic's to show off your work - excellent.

Reading your last post about the "Tavern" reminded me of the pub interior scenery sculpts from Grendel - http://www.scotiagrendel.com/Products/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2_41&products_id=2720

Perhaps one could be adapted for the "gambler" ?

Oh - my german isn't what it used to be. =)

Gambler? No proper matches, but a few of the old townsfolk could work:


6: a Boatman offers to take you to the Temple (should I take Boatman Johann or Ranger Spear 5?)

The ranger looks the part a bit more, and those ithilians go for cheap.

Thank you very much guys. Phreed, Teugen is a brilliant idea. I will use him as a Gamer.

More stuff painted up. Four guys to remain on the table for the whole time, the Healer, the Tablemaid, Death and the Guardian.

Two guys ready to follow our heroes, although most won't find the Poltergeist that entertaining. Surprisingly Citadel never produced a unicorn during their classic era so I used this mediocre Blood Bowl player from around 2000. It might have been wiser to fix a screw on the forehead of an elven horse.

Some classic foes can be found here.

More to come inthe near future, the Skeleton Commander will mark the spell "Waiting Death".
