Maledrakh's The Others: 7 Sins

The Hell Club were among the first minis I did for this game, and some of them are also regarded as the least quality minis in the game due to the shallow details on weedy bodies, the thinner truscale CMON minis are in not doing them any favors here…One can only dream how much better these could be if they had been GW-sized and scaled!

The Hell Club, a group of humans plotting evil, very reminiscent of the Cenobites from the Hellraiser series, being heavily into strap’n’leather rubber clothing and body modification…

Marguerite, Dr Gan, and Flay, the three “normal” humans in the Hell Club are probably the least good miniatures when it comes to shallowness and softness of the details in the entire game. Don’t get me wrong, the overall quality of the minis in this game is very high for PVC minis. It’s just that there are always some that are not up to scratch.

It might simply be that they are stick-thin, skin-tight fetish-latex clad humans in the smaller truscale 28mm, which means there is a limit to how deep any details can go. Something which does not work all that well for these exact miniatures, even though it works for others.

I did not really enjoy painting these all that much (what details there are are too small and shallow, I can barely see them let alone paint them. *Sigh* my age is catching up with my eyesight it seems.

So the paint job is rudimentary at best.

The Hell Club: Marguerite, Gourd & Vex, Dr Gan, Flay and Grin. In game the Hell Club are enemies that actively work to summon the Sins.

On top of that, I took a bunch of pictures of them individually, none of which turned out to be in focus. Maybe it’s the gloss varnish that tricks my old camera.

At any rate, in the end I had a single barely workable picture of all the Hell Club members. That will just have to do.

The Hell Club seems to be heavily influenced by the Hellraiser series of movies. Not a bad thing at all.

I have workable pics of Grin and Gourd and Vex taken when they were painted earlier than the other three, so I am putting them here:

Gourd and Vex. Minime cenobites. Both of short stature and shorter tempers.

An interesting pair, obviously very much in love. ah. I am such an incurable romantic.

Go get the Gimp for some fun and games:

Probably sleeps in a locked chest in the basement.

Gourd and Vex, and Grin are on 35mm bases. The others (sic!) are on 25mm bases.
