Oh, nice stuff. I don't recognise the heads on the Fallen? The albino scheme fits them very well. Really nice little project here. What's the setting? Your own?

Thanks Cap👍🏼
The heads are from Pig Iron Productions ‘Infected’ range and a little more light grey than the camera flash would imply 🙄😆
And yes it is my own setting…

Those Pig Iron heads look really good on those bodies. I wouldn’t have thought of that way to use them, nice job!

Gotcha. I love homebrewn settings. Really enjoying the style and 'feel' of this one so far - let us know what else you plan, what ruleset etc!

These guys give me a little bit of a Darkspawn vibe (from Dragon Age: Origins) due to the whole troglodyte thing. That's awesome. Keen to see what's next!

The plan…is a small scale skirmish game. Single character and three or four (maybe) units of retainers/followers.
A small warband collected around a charismatic hero.
Probably come in at about 20 figures ish a side for short bloody battles for the future of mankind…
Got the bones of some rules down so far and a couple of playtesting war bands on the go 👍🏼
So things are looking good for a nice little winter project
