Koyote's Age of Magic -SAGA

[Koyote]

Now those are nice.  Who makes them?

They are Skeleton Boyar Guard. The STLs were designed by Highland Miniatures. I bought my models from a Seller on Etsy.

Impressive.  I could tell the command was from a printer but the regular troops looked like they might be plastic.  Took a look at his stuff.   Pretty slick all around.

I’ve assembled a second unit of mounted Hearthguard and a unit of flying Creatures.

The HG are Fireforge models with their original, puny heads replaced with larger, heads from a GW’s skeleton warrior kit. I added the spikes to the tops of the helmets. The spikes are the tips of butt-spikes clipped from plastic spears.




The bats are GW Fell Bats. Their original arms and legs look much to skinny, so I bulked them up a bit with greenstuff.

Excellently composed minis as always. Love the bases on the bats.

[Pattus Magnus]

Those will be great additions. I like the modifications you did on the horsemen, the kitbash looks pretty seamless.

Really cool to see you back on the SAGA train, and even better with Undead. Been boosting my own Undead forces lately so always great to see more. Keep it up mate

[Advario]

You have a lot of stunning miniatures here! Especially these undead are cool 
You rekindled my idea of creating an undead army myself

[Advario]

The light in the Adepticon event hall was so poor I couldn’t get any good photos of my warband. So, before I put my minis back in my display case I took a group shot.

Stunning work here! I especially like the wizard surfing on his carpet

I purchased a ticket for the The Awakening Age of Magic tournament in in Langley, British Columbia.



I doubt that I can have my Undead ready in time, so I am going to use this as and excuse to re-tool my Lords of the Wild, Deep Desert Nomads warband. I'm going to tweak my Adepticon list a bit, add some new "equipment" options, and revisit my models' shading and highlights.

I began, last night, by selecting my core infantry models and starting work on rebasing the giant wolves that I orginally painted for my Celtic Horde warband.  These desert wolves will give me the option to field my creatures as bipeds or quadrapeds.

My hope is that this tournament will motivate me to finally put some paint on my WL and HG camel cav (which can also be used in a Mutatawiia warband).




I want to add small shields to my javelin levy. This will add another splash of color and break up all the brown on the models.




The Lords of the Wild don't have a multi-activation ability and I've never been player who uses his warlord that aggressively, so the WL on flying beast will likely stay home. Instead, I'm going to field my warlord as mounted (camel) or on foot (pictured below center right).




I also have plans to create a small unit of foot HG using Lord of the Rings Abrakhan Guard minis.  I already have one painted, which I previously as unit leader for one of my units of Warriors.

[Ogrob]

Keen to see your creations as always

[Grumpy Gnome]

Awww mate, more brilliant work! I love your creations.

[LouieN]

Simply amazing.  Well done

[Koyote]

My giant wolves have been transported from the fens of Inisfail to the deserts of fantasy Sahara.









Apologies for the photo quality. To save time, I used my iPhone and poor lighting. Once I've completed the warband's makeover, I will take proper photos.

[Koyote]

In other news, I've replaced my Baba Yaga with version that like a bit better.  I've also replaced the printed foot HG (which are bit too static and boring) with GW Deathrattle skellies.  Lastly, I've added a quadraped creature option to my Undead Legion.

Very nice.
