Here are two recent additions to the pool of possible encounters with 'bad things' in The Saga of Bicca Biccasson. Firstly, the Lambton Wyrm, a legendary monster from the North East of England. The figure is from the Crucible Crush Flint & Feather range via North Star ~
In games I see it as having attributes similar to a flightless dragon. In the legend it seems that bits hacked off were reattached or regenerated, which seems it might be a useful attribute if it looks like it may die too easily?The second addition and inspiration for this blog title is from the same source, catalogued as the Monstrous Flying Head. I thought it would make a splendid marker to put down in games when a Spell was cast. After all, if magic does exist it must consist of fooling the senses or muddling the mind of it's victim(s)? I chose to match the colour scheme on this piece with my Shaman seen earlier in the project, using Foundry's Moss Mid shade as the base, followed by the Raw Linen triad. See if you think it has worked ~
The final additions to the possible encounters pile are a pack of Wolves from North Star's Menagerie range. They are ready to base up now, so there will be more on them as and when...
Said it once and will say it again, bloody brilliant! A top job there👍
ReplyDeleteMost kind Phil, but will they do?
DeleteExcellent brushwork on a pair of odd specimens. Antlers on a dragon?
ReplyDeleteThanks Jonathan. Figures from Crucible Crush where the serpent with antlers is explained.
DeleteI do like the floating head - I think it's an excellent as a marker for magic in operation and why not when we have explosion, fire and smoke markers for our less mystic weaponry.
ReplyDeleteVery nice beasties, the Lambton Wyrm should be a good adversary on the table and the floating head is a cracking figure and will work really well as a marker, cracking work.
ReplyDeleteGood job on spooky choices
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely fantastic job, on some superb miniatures.
ReplyDeleteYou could expand Bicca's saga to Vinland using the figures from Crucible Crush's Flint and Feather range as Skraelings
Very creepy and well done David!
