Descent: Lair of the Worm

I realised I've now painted all the figures for the Descent expansion, Lair of the worm. The photos were taken at different times, hence the different backgrounds. I've done them pretty quick and loose with Speedpaints. They're good enough for a game.

Descent Lieutenants

Here are the Lieutenants (villains) our heroes must overcome in the first wave of Descent second edition releases. My understanding is that these are plastic recasts of first edition metal figures, and are closer to 25mm. There is certainly some scale creep going on in later Lieutenant sculpts! Contrast Flesh Tearers Red has a good showing here.

Descent monsters

Following on from the Heroes, here are the monsters from the core Descent boardgame. I've been dabbling with Citadel Contrast, and the range of browns is very handy. The Shadow Dragons and Merriods were a bit challenging to shade and highlight.

Battlelore- Heralds of Dreadfall

Here's the rest of my Undying force for Battlelore, the Heralds of Dreadfall.

The Heralds of Dreadfall

First, more Reanimates.

I really like the Skeleton Archers. They've got attitude.

The Death Knights are your quintessential heavy cavalry, albeit evil and living impaired.

The Wraiths are really cool sculpts with lovely flowing robes.

I wasn't a fan of the pose of the Barrow Wyrm at first, but it grew on me.

Here they are together with last week's Terrors of the Mists. Living beings beware!

Waiquar, the Undying

Coincidentally, I had my first game last night of Runewars, and so I took the Undead. Since it was our first game it was a five hour slog and I was robbed of victory in the last turn! It is quite a well-crafted game, which pushes you towards conflict.

My purple undead clash for unliving room with the blues and reds.

Battlelore Giant and Dragon

In Battlelore, any army can employ neutral monsters as mercenaries. These include the Mountain Giant and Great Dragon. I've decided to paint all my neutrals in a brown palette, and am pretty happy with how they turned out.
