Suber's HeroQuest

[Suber]

Long time I didn't post in the forum . Due to my general lazyness and remarkably mental scattering, I had totally forgot about showing my ongoing HeroQuest project! Let me bring you what I got so far!

First of all, the main characters



And the baddies!

The Fimir:

Then this Orc madness:

I made then a few tombs (by now you can see that I got way too much of everything! )

Aaand my latest work so far, these Goblins and Orc Shaman:

I still have a lot of work ahead, but this is slowly growing and growing. I'll try to keep you updated on this!

Nice old HeroQuest minis, and a SPLENDID paint job.

I'm green with envy, but waiting for more.

Thanks for sharing.

Awesome work suber, love the orcs lips, I might steal that idea.

[Elbows]

Awesome work.  I like the variants of the tomb-lids.

My absurd fish memory has prevented me from updating this thread , but I've done some serious progress since the last time I posted anything here.

I have painted some Chaos Warriors:

I didn't dare to paint them in other colour than black, I'm afraid. I really argued with myself on the subject, but I finally opted for this scheme.

I also painted the Undead:





I haven't been able to recover my four original Skellies, so I have replaced one of them with this other guy from the Dark World boardgame:

And the furniture. I tried to replace as much cardboard as I was able:

(Wonderful stuff from Thomarillion and Fenris Games).
I really wanted to replace the original cardboard and do some proper stuff as I did with the tombs (as you can see them above in this thread), but by then I was getting lazier and lazier, so I simply painted the rest of the original furniture and let the carboard live

So I finally have recovered a full functional copy of HeroQuest Hooray!

Game pics coming soon, I promise

[Mo!]

Wow lovely rendition!

[beefcake]

Love the freehand I the books. The conversions to the chaos warriors are very good as well. Nice work all round there

[DeafNala]

You have been INCREDIBLY productive AND it's all BEAUTIFULLY DONE!

[Elbows]

Those books are simply fantastic! 

[Suber]

Thank you all!

As promised, here you have my AAR. Can't remember when I last played this game, but I guess it was about mid 90's, some of the expansions. Anyway, I was so eager to play this again!



Doesn't look that impressive so fat, I know, know . Just give me some minutes...
We tried the first scenario in the booklet, The Trial. he adventurers must explore the dungeon and eventually get to kill the Gargoyle.







As the rules are reeeally easy, I didn't have any problem catching them up again. That has become an issue for me, as it seems I have lost my ability to get any concentration on complex rulesets along the years . Fortunately this wasn't the case, all went smooth and easy .



The characters found the Gargoyle and tried to slain the beast



Using the power both of magic and sheer muscle



Hooray!
As the game was so quick, we decided to play a second round . For that purpose we went on the second scenario, The rescue of Sir Ragnar.



Back to battle again!



As we were now familiar with the rules, the game was even quicker (not that it was difficult or anything, just having to manage a couple of rules )



Will our heroes be able to rescue Sir Ragnar?



By the skin of their teeth!

I must say I enjoyed it just like the very first day. You may say it is nostalgia, but my mates were newcomers to the game and they pretty much enjoyed it too! So I can say HeroQuest still rocks 25 years later!

[beefcake]

Cool. Such a quick, fun old school game. Easy for beginners too

[roberto]

Brings back some memories.

[warburton]

Very cool. Nice painting on all of this.

[beefcake]

Just showed my son your pictures and he was very excited.

[Suber]

Thank you all! Go recover your HeroQuests and play again all of you!
