Heroquest - Keeping a Promise to Bezzo
« on: 10 July 2011, 03:58:08 PM »
Bezzo was kind enough to send me some Heroquest figures I needed on the proviso that once I'd painted my HQ collection I posted pics on LAF. So here they are:

Orcs & Goblins





Fimir



Skellies, Mummies & Zombies







Chaos Warriors



Morcar and the Gargoyle (sorry about the pics, camera seems to have trouble focusing on single figures  :?)





Heroic Henchmen





I don't have enough HQ henchmen and they go for silly money on Ebay, so I've used some Battle Masters Empire troops as well





Finally, Bezzo had sent me a non-HQ plastic Mummy, no idea what game he comes from



I kept the paint schemes relatively quick and simple, basing them on old painting guides from WD and GW's online guides. I took more time over Morcar, and based the scheme on the cover of the HQ Adventure Design Kit.

Waiter, my soup is giggling.

Very nice!

The non-GW Mummy is from the Darkworld Heroquest knock-off game.

Okay... it might just be because of the early hours or because the coffee has not yet has an effect but I can hear the Chaos Lord saying "Hey pal! Give me a hug!" and the Mummy bursting into a song ;)

Very nice, love HeroQuest, in what style have you painted the gargoyle?

Will have to attempt to take a better pic. I've gone for a bronze statue look with verdigris in the recesses.
