A few more...

Greek Goddesses: Demeter, Aphordite, and Hestia. All from Wargames foundry

Greek Women. Teh three on the left that look a little "better fed"are from Wargames Foundry, the two on the right are from Warlord Games.

Hero of some sort from the Foundry's ARgonauts collection...

A few new ones...

Heracles (with the pelt of the Nemian Lion) from Wargames Foundry

A Beggar from Warlord Games ancient Roman line - but could easily pass for an earlier Greek beggar...

I like the beggar.

Presumably the beggar is a god in disguise. Neglect him at your peril!

A few more of the gods:

From Left to Right; Hermes, Eros, Athena, Poseidon, Dionysus, Hades, and Hephaistos. All from Wargames Foundry

and because they had them in Clash of the Titans:

A GIANT SCORPION! (this is actually a cheap plastic dollar store critter that just happened to be about the right size for a "28mm" Giant scorpion!)

Tim, they look better and better! Nice update.

Prof.Witchheimer · « **Reply #36 on:** May 21, 2012, 11:25:18 AM »

Like the Gods, Tim, well done!

This past weekend I finally finished up a herd of Centaurs to finish up a HOTT/DBA army of them.

This lot are all figures from Wargames Foundry

These are all from Mega Miniatures

Here is the whole army together:

The army consists of :

1x Knight or Rider General (or Cavalry General in DBA)
1x Magician
7-8x Riders (Light Horse in DBA)
1-2x Shooters (Allied Satyr Archers – to give the army something to deal with stuff in bad-going)

At some point I'd like to pick up a couple more elements worth - just to fill out a full 12-element army of "Riders" (or Light Horse/Cavalry in DBA)

Wow, they look impressive as a group! Nicely done. A great selection of minis from a lot of different companies that gel well together

Tim

I love what you have acheived with this project so far. Though I must say that I am a little disappointed with the Foundry Myths range....some of the figures are stunning whilst others look like the sculpter has tried to get them done in an afternoon. I will probably still get them anyway.
Again VERY well done.

Pete

Another centaur - on a much bigger individual base!? This will actually be the Army marker for the Centaur Army above (to denote the location of said army on a campaign map - I do love campaigns...).

The figure is from Mega Miniatures.

Tim, how do the Mega Miniatures Centaurs stack up next to the Foundry ones in terms of size and sculpt? I have around 15 or 20 of the Mega Minis ones that I painted years back but none of the Foundry. I always liked the Mega Minis ones for what they were, reasonably priced, okay sculpts. Nothing to devote your gaming life to but good rank and file Centaurs.

I think the mega minis stuff is maybe a bit smaller. Do they go well together? Depends how picky you are. I'm not so picky... but I did make the stands of one type (i.e. each stand has all figure from Foundry, or Mega Minis, or whatever) partly because there was a noticeable enough difference when they were standing right next to each other on a base together.

Have a look at the army above - there's a mix of the two in the big group shot - kind of hard to tell how tall each is from that angle... but the back row, from left to right, is: Mega Minis, Foundry, Mega Minis, Mega Minis, Foundry. The Front row, from left to right, is Foundry, Mega Minis, Foundry, Reaper (the singly-based shaman/magician), and Shadowforge.

Tim, thanks. Very cool. I think they look very good together. I dig the Mega Minis stuff but there are only so many sculpts there. I guess I can certainly look at foundry now for expansion options when I return to centaurs. Thanks much sir.

I started building some ships... All the cool heroes had one... Odyseus... Jason...

This is a work-in-progress shot:

Hopefully I'll get a chance to finish these up in the next week or two.
