I stumbled across Black Scorpion Miniatures and thanks to shipping from the UK, “had” to buy a whole bunch. I ended up getting a bunch of undead cowboys, undead pirates, a anthropomorphic duck wielding a SAW, and this ship’s cook and monkey captain.

I added some real sand and seashells and the monkey’s palm tree is from the bits box at the rummage sale. I believe it’s a Warhammer Catachan thing (whatever that is).

The local game store had a rummage sale and I got to go through boxes of bits. I went a bit overboard and ended up coming back and buying more. Basically all of it is Warhammer stuff but I should be able to do some cool kitbashing.

I took some (what I think are) Warhammer Fantasy Battle Lizardmen mounts and some horseless riders of Rohan and made my lizard riders. The Rohirrim’s legs were really wide enough to sit on the lizard’s saddles so i had to get creative with greenstuff and just hacking away plastic on the lizards.

I also made some objective tokens from what look like dwarf bits from WHFB. The photos didn’t come out great so I’m not posting.

These models are from sculptor Ana Polanšćak’s 2023 Folk Horrors II Kickstarter. I had already picked up and painted the first set of Folk Horror minis from her so seeing this second set, it was an instant back for me. The minis are cast in metal and for the most part are one piece. This is only a few of them.

I kept the painting of these fairly simple. There’s so much texture on them, a dry brush goes a long way. On the bird guy I did a lot of dabbing on paint with a sponge to get a cool texture on the leather and bone.

Love this dude. He’s one of four rag devils apparently inspired by Hungarian and English folklore.

The two Hutas draw obvious inspiration from old wooden churches and baba yaga (the minis have little chicken feet).
