Megalith Preview More Godslayer Releases On Kickstarter
January 17, 2014 by brennon
In some of their recent updates for Godslayer on Kickstarter, Megalith Games have shown off what's coming next. See what you think of some of the Nordgaard and Wyldfolk figures on the way...
First up we have some renders for the Bloodvarg and the Viking-like Scarjarl. I do have a soft spot for these warriors from the North and the Bloodvarg looks like an awesome beast. I like the Scarjarl too but the pose doesn't feel too right to me. I imagine he is meant to be charging into combat, but maybe the sword should be held higher and further back ready to swing?
For the Wyldfolk we have the Wycca Warriors with their deadly looking scythes. I like these woodland warriors too, who certainly have a very 'Old Albion' and 'Celtic' vibe to them.
Some fun things to look forward to for Godslayer.

Great: an armoured westie clawing at the door to get outside, and a jolly Viking skipping off to war. Bottom figure isn’t great, but is better.

I’m a big fan of Godslayer but I must admit that they don’t do animals/beasts very well. The Bloodvarg is their best one to date but still isn’t quite as awesome as I had hoped it would. I would also have to concur with Brennon about the Scarjarl’s stance. Thankfully it is a render so they still have a chance to fix it. If not, well, the model will be metal so with a little dedication and greenstuff the pose could come out better. Also Megalith does not display their miniatures very well to be honest. In person they always… Read more »
The Scarjarl is leaning a little bit too much backwards apart from that the post seems fine. Okay, looking at it from a real world standpoint you wouldn´t raise your leg that high. But that´s dynamic and thus still cool to me. Holding your sword further back to swing is very hollywoodesque though and thus I wouldn´t like it. The Wyccas look goof so far imho.
Nice over all models.
The Bloodvarg reminds me of the armoured bear in The Golden Compass.
