These Juggernauts (nightmare Riotbreakers) are the Black Friday followup to this year’s Gencon nightmare models.
It’s always nice when there are a few more in-theme alts to work with.
Unlike the Weeping Huntress, these 40mm models fill out their bases nicely.
Although some of their helmets are a little silly.
Like most of the recent Nightmare sets, Lord Galehault got some followups. Only in this case, the first followup came out at Gencon as well.
With titles being a thing now in Malifaux, complete with alternate sculpts, the Nightmares need it, too. In this case, he’s unhorsed, but otherwise the same character.
But he has this robot dragon for a friend.
The Nightmare set from 2022 didn’t really speak to me. But for some reason this one did.
I always feel like I’m missing something when painting realistic horses. But this one is fantastic enough that it seems okay.
The Hollow Fiends came with clear plastic flight stands, but now obvious place to mount them. These rods were originally intended just for painting, but I ended up deciding to keep them.
Look at this brawny man. He probably can’t look at you through that helmet.
Stiltzkin is this lovely silly little beast.
The Weeping Huntress is the one weak sculpt of the batch. In particular, it doesn’t really fill the 40mm base. Oh well, you can’t win ’em all.
There are a handful of limited alternate sculpts in Carnevale. The Rashaar seem to get the bulk of them. This hammerhead karcharos is one of them.
I dig the deep scarring. I tried to make the wounds look fresh.
