Title: (Commercial) Crooked Dice: Fishfolk preview
Post by: uti long smile on July 13, 2019, 12:06:25 PM
Coming soon... Next month will see some sinister pulp releases hitting the web-store. There will be four new packs in August all with an aquatic theme. Here's a preview of the first set - the wonderful Fishfolk. Sculpted by Iain Colwell and painted for display by Simon Bradley.

As i am cleaning up my paintdesk now to start on finally painting up all my Deep Ones/Hybrids, just recently having looked them all over have to say these are some of the nicest looking Hybrids I have had the pleasure to see. Very nice sculpts indeed. Really captures the faces the way I imagined them. Love yhe webbed toes on the high priest. The only thing i would have changed is his headgear which should have been one of the weird gold tiaras, but it is a minnor quibble. Will just paint it gold anyway. Incredibly nice additions to the EOD and look forward adding them to my horde of Dagonites.

Thank you! The opportunity to do a sea-shell crown doesn’t come along very often :) I loved what Iain has done with these and really eager to do some more later this year.

Very nice!

Any idea of scale to Rattrap and/or Rafm?

Thanks

I don't have any of those to hand, but you should get a sense of scale from the 25mm slottabase. The whole CD range is 28mm to eye.

Nope. There is a Deep One, Dagon Idol and a Sunken Cthulhu.

BTW, uti, just a quick mention that you might want to add the 'Pulp' tag to the Time-Lost Heroes set in the CD store. ;)

Another lament over the loss of the Crooked Dice forum, I do not venture often above the InterWar sub forum and for some reason Facebook does not believe my name is ultravanillasmurf however I break it up.

Nice figures, on my list for Colours.
