In the wake of four bloody games of Frostgrave my warband has expanded and upgraded a fair few of the original members - whether through loss, sacrifice or just plain better options. Most recently I have hired a pair of more armoured soldiers - a Templar and a Knight. I wanted to try out some models with better armour, but honestly I wanted an excuse to paint up these fantastic (if disturbing!) miniatures. Both of these models are Apostates of Darkness from the Confrontation range by Rackham.
This mighty champion carries a pair of great maces and drags a pair of chained slaves behind him at all times |
The bound slaves are masked and scarred - I painted them with many small cuts as being dragged around by this brute would not be easy |
The baroque armour has been painted in the usual style, pitted and ancient |
Only the chains were painted cleanly, but the mask was also given even highlights |
This model serves as my Templar, with less armour than the model above but armed with two equally brutal weapons |
Daemonic iconography is scattered across the model, while a grotesque haemonculus (or something more sinister) hangs from his belt |
Scar tissue across the flesh breaks up the skin nicely |
Scrolls and other accoutrements hang from the belt |
A book also hangs from the belt - the mark of a creature beyond a mindless killing machine |
The fearsome Templar strides into battle, ready to cull the followers of the false gods |
The Templar, Knight and Barbarian together |
Thanks for reading,
George
