Title: Cult of the Black Goat - March 2014 Update
Post by: LidlessEye on March 21, 2014, 04:00:13 PM
I've just sent out the latest issue of Fhtagn!, the Cult of the Black Goat newsletter.  There's enough members now that I'm trying out a delivery service, and while it looks like the emails are getting through just fine, if any Cult members haven't received the message by the end of the day, double check your spam folders and let me know if nothing has reached you.

As already revealed in the LPC, this year's exclusive Cult model is 'The Watcher', sculpted by Bob Murch.  You should seriously check out Bob's own paint job over in the LPC thread, but here's our 'studio' model, which lets you see just how big this beastie is (Agent James included for scale purposes only).  New members of the Cult will now receive this model as part of their welcome package, and existing Cultists will have one added to their first UWM webstore order this "Cult year".

Also, due to an oversight on my part, Cultists that joined up over the past few months hadn't been added to the appropriate list in the shop to qualify them for the member price on the Deep One model.  This has been corrected, and I apologize if it caused anyone any difficulty (thankfully nobody affected ordered it at the wrong price, though I'm not surprised you didn't!).

As Hammers said on the LPC therad: "Who can resist a ballsack on a tripod?"
 :o :o

Great model.
Very disturbing!

Haha! You've ruined this model for me now Mason.

I nominate the scrotum.

Go ahead and laugh mortals! Enjoy yourselves while you can. The Watcher is coming and when it finds you, be prepared for...a...devastating glance, or a disdainful look or perhaps...an eye-lashing!

Where can I buy an appropriate Wendigo?  >:D

There's no concept art for the Wendigo as such (beyond a horrible scribble of my own), but this is the closest thing I can find to the way I envisioned it (less the antlers):

Ah, it's a good thing to be in a cult with... um... Stuff. On legs.

Happy to be celebrating another Vernal Equinox with you all.  :D

Thanks for all the hard work getting out Fhtagn! #5.

Excellent work on the latest issue and the new cult model,
I'll have to get another order in sharpish, as the watcher must be mine.....


Regards

Jim

The Watcher is a real treat to paint up...the fun for me was the eye itself. You have so many choices. Keen cultists will have noticed the rules for him in this newsletter. So, get yours today and start watching right away! Jeepers Creepers...where didja get that eye!

I had intended on entering my eye in the LPC but the spot was usurped by none other than Mr. Murch himself! (...the scoundrel!) I plan to post my painted Watcher in this thread. Perhaps you should do the same once you get yours?

Stop looking at me!  :o

I didn't mount my Watcher on a base...the three legs really make for some cool 'action poses' as it strides through scenery.  8)

Do you need to make a sanity check if you get tea-bagged by that thing?

Nice paintjob, Uncle Mike.
Great work on the eye!

It somehow seems even more disturbing in that bright pink colour.... :o :o :o
