Sci-fi Narthoks
« on: March 22, 2019, 06:11:37 PM »
This is my Sci-fi Narthoks Miniature. He was a stretch goal in my Narthoks Kickstarter campaign. Which is currently shipping. He’ll be production moulded this weekend and is available in my store. A three piece resin mini.

I am going to build a wargames army, a big beautiful wargames army, and Mexico is going to pay for it.

Very Nice. Now that my kickstarter is almost complete I might get painting again. This is at the top of my list (well fantasy version).

Thank you both. If your planning on picking him up at Salute, it might be worth preordering him. I’m busy casting Kickstarter pledges, so resin stock at Salute will be limited, unless preordered.

You sure can, although it won’t ship for a week or two, as I have about forty to cast and post to Kickstarter backers first...

Time to budget some money for an order, then.

Out of morbid curiosity, is the name a deliberate Coneheads joke?  One can narfle a garthok, but you'd best not try to garfle this Narthoks.

I don’t know to be honest. I have a Facebook page, where I asked for name suggestions and Narthoks won. The Excellent bit was based on his tentacle rubbing being similar to Mr Burns scheming.

He was a Kickstarter exclusive mini. So he’s now gone.
I had a think about some other variants and new heads last night. So maybe a second Kickstarter could give you an opportunity the get the bartender, but a new sculpt.
