The Cult of the Emerald Scorpion
« on: 04 January 2015, 06:39:32 AM »
Finished these guys today, rest should be done tomorrow.



Cult Enforcer


A basic minion who does the will of the Scorpion Master.

Number 1 and Toxic


Outside of the cult Number 1 is a well known figure, a genius inventor and engineer. His most diabolical inventions are used by the cult, one of which is shown here; a giant mechanical scorpion which stores a deadly neurotoxin in its tail. Naturally it has been painted green, to embody the object of the cult's devotion.


Cultists are Bob Murch minis, the scorpion is from Reaper. Will get some better pictures tomorrow when the rest of the cult arrives.

Nice work, you can't beat a good cult. I like the idea of the scorpion too.

Love the colouring.
Might use it for New York Irish cultists, just to be different....

Which green paint did you use?

Hopefully a fairly obvious one, but makes a change to the black or red cowled ones.

I suppose I could do some orange ones with drums & whistles :~}

GW paints. Warpstone Glow washed with their green shade, then drybrushed with Warpstone, then the old Goblin Green, finished off with their green glaze.

Here he is, the shadowy mastermind himself, the Scorpion Master!





With the second mechanical scorpion, Stinger, which discharges a powerful electrical blast from its tail:



The Scorpion Master oversees the delivery of the cults mechanical monstrosities at an abandoned factory:





The cult takes over a historical building to further their mysterious purpose:

Ace color scheme and the painting rocks too!
