Since Wyrd was kind enough to make an all-Resurrectionist set of limited models this Gencon, I get another alt master model.
So with an alt Seamus, an alt Sybelle from a while back, and 2nd edition minion boxes widely discounted, that just leaves me with the Copycat Killer to figure out. I have some ideas, though…
I got Vintage McMourning as a random promo a while ago. Now that I’m apparently doing Resurrectionists, it seemed appropriate to paint it up.
I’ve taken McMourning as a second master in one game. He pretty much single-handedly won me the game. His ability to ignore a bunch of defensive abilities makes him super dangerous. Unfortunately, his discard-to-move-4″ ability doesn’t synergize with the Fading abilities that Molly brings to the table.
From time to time I’ll reach into the hobby vault to feature models painted before I started this blog.
This Tactical squad, although fourth to be posted and labeled as squad I, was actually the second one I painted, back early 2012 or so. It’s the squad from the fifth edition Assault on Black Reach box.
It was also the first infantry I painted using an airbrush to put down the basecoats.
The meltagun is a small conversion, since I believe it came with a flamer.
The Nightmare Brine and Bones box emphatically includes a hat for Archie. It even includes an alt stat card with the hat and the name Arrrchie. Who am I to argue?
My friend Sean was kind enough to provide a cutlass from Wyrd’s old Driftwood Docks accessory pack, to complete the pirate theme.
I tried to use a couple skin tone variants to drive home the idea that the limbs had been stitched together, though it doesn’t come through much on the end product.
