LordofUzkulak’s WiP Burrows & Badgers
Project start
First up we have a fox ‘knight’, converted from a fox rogue mini. The conversion was fairly simple; I simply sawed the right hand and foot off the integrated base and carefully bent the left leg to reposition it into a standing position and then bent the right leg into a ‘stepping’ position. I plan on running him with dual swords so removed the dagger and pinned a plastic sword into each hand (the right hand one involved cutting/filing a gap into the palm an carefully bending the fingers into a fist). I plan on sculpting the underside of the right foot and do some sculpting to repair damage that was caused to the fingers of the right hand. I’ll also be adding a cloak and sculpting more armour onto him.
Next we have a Squirrel ‘squire’, which is the standard squirrel knight without any modification.
I’ve also written some fluff for each of them and plan to do so for each warband member as I add them:
Aerod Glawiesin
Fox
Son of Prince Mordydd ap Morgan, ruler of Glwysyng, he has come to Northymbra to make a name for himself and prove himself worthy of being heir to the throne. Unofficially however he has been sent to help destabilising the region in the wake of the Northymbran king’s disappearance. Even more unofficially he has come seeking artefacts and lost knowledge of the Horned God with which he can use to gain personal power.
Aerllai Talwyn
Squirrel
Son of Prince Haearngorch, ruler of Gŵr, a client principality of Glwysyng, he was taken as a hostage by Prince Mordydd to ensure Prince Haearngorch’s fealty. Talwyn grew up in the Glwysyng court, training alongside Aerod Glawiesin and serving as his squire. He has continued to serve in that role, following Glawiesin to Northymbra
Love the backstory stuff, look forward to seeing them ready for action!
Thanks, might be a while before they see action though; need to knuckle down on getting some 40k stuff ready for action, and the new AoS is so tempting, and on top of that is AT coming out soon, all of which is gonna tie up hobby funds/time and stop me getting the rest of the warband any time soon. 🙁
