Everytime I see Brian Blessed...my favourite scene springs to mind.  I wish this was how we dealt with countries today.

That really is quite a similarity! Especially the tone of the armour.

Also some lovely chap on 4chan decided to make this...
never trust a horse, they make a commitment to shoes that no animal should make.

Converted from a forge world psyker. Given a new sculpted face, new staff head , new robes on his front and little bit of grime to stop him looking too smooth.

"There are many secrets that draw the lost and desperate to the realm of shadow.
Some come to hide, others to search for lost treasures in the sunken libraries and mist filled ruins of the great marshes...
Others however, Come for the shadow itself.
The wizard going by the name of Therin is one such traveller. For It is whispered that he seeks the lost secrets of the Mystaricum, The mythical temple of the order of the blind saint, Who in the age of chaos hid themselves through magyk and deceit deep within the mist seas of the shadow lands.
Others claim he is a spy of sigmar Sent to follow rumours and stories of a dark and terrible force gathering in the darkness, Or to find the fey Aelves and see what they are hiding beyond the eyes of curious gods.....
None truly know what great and forgotten secrets Therin seeks, All they know is that he has decided that the quest of Sir Bry'n the dawn knight coincides with his own, For now...."

Kind of you to say so!

On that note, here is another forge world mini, this time an exclusive one, ruthlessly butchered for my sigmar-y cause!





More on this chap at mystarikum.blogspot.co.uk

And also a few WIPs of town guard, the deacon, and the librarian...

That Sigmarine is an excellent conversion. I am amazed what a head swap can do to make them look good!

Indeed. Also just having a head in scale with their bodies really helps give them a stronger silhouette.

A small update. I took a trip to warhammer world and got some nice scenic shots of my miniatures on a good scenic table.I have done a small write up, Nothing much since i don't know what else there is to say about warhammer world.

Hey nic, love all these minis! Such interesting old school conversions and paintwork. And the backstory for each you've written on your blog is fantastic. Super great.
