Anatolis project thread [Ancient warrior 24/10]

[Commander Vyper]

Welcome aboard Anatolis, nice to see you over from SOTR.

Looking forward to more madness soon.

I ordered both Strange Aeon books from Uncle Mike's a week ago and received them yesterday, I've put together a detailed review of the books themselves and listed the content along with pictures of it all (with permission from Uncle Mike's).
I figured I would do this since there is little information on this Lovecraftian ruleset to be found.

There will be a follow up on a rundown and review of the rules themselves around this weekend so keep an eye out  :-)

Very nice work again!!

[Anatoli]

Painted the Scrawny One's blister today - I also wrote a painting guide on how to paint them the way I did, that along with more pictures of this blister can be found on my blog.

Hi Anatoli nice to see you posting some stuff here now. It all looks good.
Hope to see more soon.
Cheers BF(Mr.C)

A collective "hi" to all the guys from the SoTR forum, nice to see you all 

Phil, yeah although Secrets takes up a lot of shelf space I still do other projects on the side as you might tell - and that's also why I've been low key on SoTR forums for the past months painting other models.

About that blog special, still interested in having you on - I'm scouting for more people at the moment and I think I've found them. Just need to contact and make arrangements with you all

Nice purpley mottled look on those scrawny ones.

When mine come through I'll be torn between your take and einarolafson's ones re: colour pallet. 

[Anatoli]

His were really damn nice, but I felt I needed to paint mine differently since they were to take part in the "Brush off" competition.

A few more West Wind models painted as decomposing braindead minions for my Malifaux and Strange Aeons games.
More pics from different angles and a group picture of all 8 can be found on my blog.

Not that exciting perhaps. Schedule this week is tight, but I hope I can paint up the Serpentmen and Formless Thing blisters soon. Got a 50mm base for the Formless Thing, it almost fits.

A Formless Thing from the Strange Aeons range:

Oh very nice!!!

[blackstone]

Good stuff there! The formless thing is nicely gorey :0

[Anatoli]

Thanks guys 

Here's the Serpentmen blister painted up, painted their robes to look like the "cultists" I had painted previously.



Pictures from all angles and group picture with the crossbow wielding cultists can be found on my blog

I've written a fairly detailed battle report as a follow up on my rundown of the rules to show how the game flows, some of the modifiers and special rules etc.

The mission generated was "Monster Attack" and a group of eager but rather ill equipped Treshold agents had to defeat the abomination – it would prove to be a desperate battle which ended pretty cinematically.

You can find the complete battle report along with pictures of the struggle on my blog:

Nice AAR - gives a good idea how the game plays out.
