Silver Bayonet
Cultists
Straight from the NorthStar Cultist box.
Slight modification of a bow right arm becoming a sword arm and a a double handed mace becoming an axe.These are for one of the scenarios or for potential encounter table bestiary stuff. Hopefully be based in a way that might be passable in Frostgrave too.
These 5 got knocked out in a day. Was really happy with them. Black primer with a Halfords red primer zenith, then a Mephiston Red dry brush over everything. Picked out the gloves in Abaddon black, picked out the hood stitching in Morghast Bone, picked out some leather and wood with Mornfang Brown and used Nulin Oil and Agrax Earthshade on some of the under layers of clothing to create some depth and variety. The rune style decals are from a White Dwarf. (Wolf Spears?)
The stones on the base are cut from the tab bases on other minis, painted with a black and grey seer mix. Then highlighted with just Grey Seer and the whole thing washed in Athonian Camoshade. The leaves, throughout the project, are newspaper painted brown: punched with a Green stuff world leaf punch.
Found this mini built and primed in my "to-do" box I had forgotten about. Painted him in the style of my other ones and if there needs to be a boss cultist I will make it this guy. Rather than messing with transfers I freehanded the runes to speed things up. Need to stop messing with the bestiary and get back to my warbands.
