Unboxing Mortal Gods: Mythic – Hydra
January 27, 2020 by avernos
Gerry is here to unbox a very special miniature for Mortal Gods from Footsore Miniatures.
Check Out The Mortal Gods: Mythic Kickstarter Here
The hydra is quite the mythical beast. Known for being cut down in its sleep by the cowardly Heracles the beast is represented here by the sculpting work of Trish Carden. Gerry not only compliments the detail on this miniature but also the attention to detail for assembly with letters carved into the join parts that correspond to each head.
What mythical creature would you love to see in the Mortal Gods range?

Good on you Gerry, lovely pet. How many mouths to feed. Rushed job but still a very nice critter. Must look at this kickstarter.
I would take a photo of those letter for the heads otherwise I’m sure I’d screw it up
I didnt realise Trish Carden was also Trish Morrison
Nephew with a torch? You mean Jamie and his dog Wordsworth?
that was a magic torch certainly
Nice unboxing. Thanks, Gerry! I think that those little nubs on the front might be where the next heads will grow when the current ones are hacked off 😉
Also, that base is actually an 80mm.
you’d think I’d know, I own gangs of Rome and have 8 of those mob bases. Old age I suppose
Amazeballs.
Love the head ‘lettering’ idea… so simple.. but yet so funny that I’ve not seen that before!!!
I suspect the 80mm round base may be the same provided.. that is how a lot of the Mortal Gods/Footsore stuff comes and I think they are supplied by Sarissa Precision.
This enormous Hydra seems less impressive in Gerry’s giant hands… can we get another OTT member to hold it for scale? lol.
No! it’s my precious *hisses*
and you are correct Footsore said it would be those 80s.
I was going to suggest it is too much effort for the rest of the crew to shave their palms before a photo/video – which is also the most obvious reason Gerry is now doing all the unboxings.
That is a heck of a beastie. It’s not on my pledge now but let’s not rule it out.
Somewhat Ray Harryhausen.
Hail Hydra…
that Hydra looks fabulous do you get extra heads Gerry.
nope one per neck
I do enjoy the Mortal Gods game and I am really looking forward to this mythic add on.
Looks magnificent!
I did back the hydra, and am looking forward to receiving it this summer. You guys should do a batrep for Mortal Gods. I’m just starting to get my stuff together, and would love to see a vid on gameplay. 😀
