Happy Sundasy CoGs OTTers and of course, (and possibly most importantly) Backstagers!
Happy Sunday!
“Gastromancy” reminded me of Radox the Green, a wizard from the BBC/John Lloyd radio series “Hordes of the Things”. He insisted that his spells had the appropriate garnishes. https://youtu.be/MaQ58KToxbI?si=OCoP1-bpyfcgqaEq&t=1118
Need to listen to this. Brilliant
Completely agree with Ben’s choice of the Elfking models, absolutely fantastic models, i have loads to paint.
I know they have been featured recently but my other favourite indie is Spectre Miniatures. I initially bought a couple of their modern operatives and was really impressed with the detail with the additional bonus that they dvslrvwrll with likrs of Crooked Dice and Copplestone Castings (Mark Copplestone being one of my favourite sculptor along with Steve Saleh).
Spectre Miniatures have their moderns inc SWAT, Police, Criminals and the aforementioned operatives all ideal for any modern skirmish or horror game. But to csp it all off they now produce (or will do once the Kickstarter fulfils) what in my opinion the best Cthulhu models ever produced.
Happy Sunday
