Rokuro is a tengu who has fallen in with the cult. He (I’m assuming Rokuro is he) comes with two axes which can be used as ranged weapons (just two shots obviously) or in melee where he gets the brutal and bleed special rules while he still has the axes. He’s not bad in combat and the brutal rule definitely adds to his ability. He’s also a bigger model and based on a 40mm base rather than the standard 30mm.

Painting wise, the skin was based upon the darker tones in my skin paint set, using the ‘Indian shade’ extensively to darken it down. This was applied as a glaze to try and smooth over the transition. I’ve used a khaki on the trousers, using an off white khaki mix for the highlights and a shade of khaki and dark brown mix applied as a glaze. The purple sash was imperial purple mixed with black/off white for the highlights and shades.

The armour and axe blades is gunmetal and I’ve then applied a couple of black washes over the shaded parts, building this up into the darker areas. I’ve then used gunmetal to highlight back up and finished off the edges with a polished metal.

The axe handles are bleached bone with a wash applied whereas the hair is Luftwaffe grey with a black wash and then a light grey dry brush.

The wings were a combination of browns, including cavalry brown as the base and a highlight of light brown. Similar for the feet.

For the basing, I’ve used the usual approach as I have for my other cult models. I’ve also stuck some brush bristles on for some height in the vegetation.

Job done, and ready for the gaming table.
