The Void Hunters are the new minions for Tara in M3E. It comes packaged with the Scion of the Void, which I already had, so I got these with the special order program.
They’re on 40mm bases, which I didn’t have a ton of in the Secret Weapon desert mesa style. But I did have a random swag base from Wargamma and decided to give it a go. It fits in well enough.
I don’t know if it’s intentional, but the poses on these models make me think of cats.
My core Tara crew is lightly painted on Wyrd’s translucent plastics, which is pretty much impossible to replicate with just paint. I guess the Void Hunters are a bit more corporeal than their friends.
With the new edition of Malifaux, I’ve found a new focus on filling out the keyword models for my masters. For Tara, that means the Talos.
I didn’t really even attempt the “Soul Furnace” aspect of guy-in-the-cage. The thankfully mostly breaks up surfaces with various details, whether its extra metal plates, bolts, or weird ribbony things.
I’ve played one third edition game with Tara. It did not go well. But at least I looked pretty while doing it!
Fresh(ish) off a points drop, Miss Deed joins my collection of mercenaries.
The tiny tiny eyes are much harder, and less convincing, here than the giant chibi eyes. But I’m quite happy with the jacket. I used the Secret Weapon rust colors, which I’m really liking for organic browns and reds.
Now in its thirdyear, let’s take a look at my hobby work over the past year.
Overview
I started the hobby year working through the Malifaux Black Friday order and getting a few things ready for Adepticon. Then the queue got real. In 2015 I felt I had been a little too stingy at Adepticon. Let’s just say I didn’t have that problem this year.
