The myth of the damned legion ..
« on: 29 May 2020, 05:50:55 PM »
I welcome you to the respected members of the forum ....

I present to your court a work on the cursed legion (lion symbol 13 of the legion)
Of course, all this looks like covid 19, but it's not covid 19 it is covid 2 millennia before the birth of Christ.
 :D

Those look pretty cool.  Will you paint them like glowing ghosts or old, sickened, undead?

Who makes these minis?  I like the ideas of skeleton ancients.

Oh cracking job! Did you sculpt these?

Also, will you be using these for Broken Legions by Osprey? I think they have a ruleset for the damned legion.

I made people for whom to execute an order cannot even be prevented by death. I planned to paint them in shabby clothes and pupils in red ....

Yes, I am a sculptor and I sculpted it.
Unfortunately I did not read the Broken Legions by Osprey. But I think that the figures will be able to serve everywhere - where you need a damned legion. ;)
I wanted to make damaged shields for legionnaires, but I thought about it. If you copy them, then the shields will be equally damaged ... this is not good? Although there may be 3-4 damaged shields.

By the way, the symbol of the 13th legion is the lion.

You can get double use for the same shield if it is symmetrical such that you can turn the same shield upside down for another figure.  Make the damage different on top and bottom.

Warlord Games has their pack of Veteran Legionaries.  They did a nice job with the shields in this respect.

Wonderful figures, let us all know when they are available,
& how to get them.
I agree that using the shields upside down will increase the variety.

A brutal virus is a hindrance. As soon as the virus is defeated and the restrictions are removed, this project will be implemented.

I am very glad that you liked my figures.
Thank you very much for your attention to this work.

Excellent figures, I could see them standing in as Tomb Guards in my Tomb King army.
