Fyreslayer Lodge Caengan - Warhammer Underworlds Painting Log
Inspiration For The Project
So, the inspiration for this project came from reading the Fyreslayers Battletome and learning about the Lodge of Caengan. These Duardin dwell within the Realm Of Ulgu (Shadows).
They have made pacts with the Shadowkin and Shroudling Kings there in a hunt for ur-gold and I thought that would be a perfect theme for a band of Fyreslayers sent to Shadespire.
This also meant that I was going to try something different. It’s no use being a flaming wild Duardin in the mists is it…so, I began painting them as Duergar!
The theme features purple/pink skin which is inspired by the Duergar of Dungeons & Dragons.
The idea is that the Shroudling Kings have offered them extra protection in the mists of their realm. This meant that their skin took on a purple hue to allow them to dwell within the darkness and keep hidden from some of the monsters that exist in the darkness.
They have also started to make weapons out of the materials they have found there so it involves less bronze and brass, instead bringing in their strange mythical materials from another realm.
As you can see, purple is immediately a very different colour!
