Title: Painted Greek Gods for OGAM
Post by: Dr. Kevin Moon III esq. on February 23, 2014, 11:55:05 AM
Picked these up at Call to Arms last weekend from SHQ (old Jim Bowen sculpts from Chiltern I think) and couldn't resist painting them.

Zeus, Artemis and Aphrodite

I'll be using them in games of OGAM - they are mounted on 25mm squares so are pretty God-like:

Comments welcome as ever.

Actually crocodile games did a kickstarter a while ago and they had the green for a very nicely looking Hades.

I really should do some digging at to when that guy it supposed to be released. Actually I think pretty much all the demi-god sculpts from that kickstarter would be great for OGAM.
EDIT: expected delivery date at time of kickstarter September 2014. Good to see that targeted realistic dates, but such a long wait still.

they looks to "fantasy" for me.

I would prefer something more like a crossover between historical and fantasy but very animated like that Bronze age miniatures :

OGAM Hades has shadowform so I can live with that. Now lets stop de-railing this topic before Prof shuts us down.
