Triple Sprue Challenge
« on: August 22, 2017, 04:42:10 PM »
Osprey is doing a contest for the Frostgrave: Ghost Archipelago release. Build a wizard, apprentice, and captain from the existing plastic kits.

Link to Osprey announcement on blog.

I thought it would be fun if people posted their entries here, or at least some their own conversions. I've done some spellcasters using these parts already, but never without supplementing them with third party stuff (time for the Women and Wizards box!)

Interesting!  :)

Do Northstar sell mixed sprues by chance? So any four Frostgrave sprues for £20 for example?

I'd love to get some mixed sprues, but a whole box of each is too much for me to buy just for dabbling with.  :(

They do sell them by the sprue: North Star store.

Interesting. I have those sprues and there's still a month to do something. Need to dig them out and see if I can think of something worth submitting.

What a nice idea, to encourage the joys of kitbashing  ;)

I'm pretty happy with my models, now I just need to figure out how to take some decent photos before I submit.

Osprey posted the entries they've received so far.

There's some great entries already and still time to submit your own!

I remember seeing a few of those here or on the FB page.  Very nice!
