Hello all! I swear after this I’ll be painting my Xenos retinue, I just cant help getting distracted by making new models. This time an NPC brute for use with my mordheimers. He’s an old knight, his order broken and the remaining members hunted for misappropriated crimes. Over the years his brain has been subject to the same rotting illness affecting so many in the ruins. I’ll write up some proper lore once he’s painted. Please let me know what you think!
Excellent. EXCELLENT!! So dark and ominous. I love the stance and the armour plates. Even though he is old I reckon he could still dish out a good serving of pain.

I didn’t realise how long it’s been since I posted this, whoops! Thank you 🙂
Everyone in the remade Mordheim is old, stupid or diseased anyway so nobody should really be able to challenge him haha

Just echoing what ImperialRebelOrk said – this guy is really ominous. I’d never thought of chopping the horns off that helmet but I actually much prefer it without.

Thank you 🙂
Me too! It was never really part of the plan to remove the horns but I damaged the original piece by accident, then just went with it. I think it worked out quite well though

He is the real deal, not the sort you want to bump in to in a dark alley.
I also much prefer the helmet without horns.
I can’t actually wait to finish what I’m doing so I can switch and do a fantasy group.
Great job!

Haha thanks! It was a happy accident with that helmet, I was planning on using it as is but I snapped off one of the horns. I was going to give it up to the bits box but I thought I’d see if I could remove them all. I’m glad I did 😀
Looking at your skills with green stuff I bet your group would be fantastic!

I like him, he has a kind of sad lonely Dark Souls-ish vibe to him.

As someone who’s finished DS1 and DS2, and is halfway through BB that means a lot! I think it’s clear to see where my inspiration comes from when you see those games haha
