More Sylvanian Families

Following on from the Sylvanian zombies of here . I have done the second of my three undead units, some archers. I am using the simple dark red and black scheme of dread Sylvania, as was hinted on the banner of the zombies. However where the zombies are just any old peasants risen from the dead, the skeleton archers are former soldiers and as such the remains of their uniforms can be seen. I was not sure if to stick with the darker dying grass and brown fern bases as in my mind the putridness of the zombies decaying bodies helped this theme make sense, where as the skeletons are just dry bones. So whilst the zombies clearly make worse the land upon which they walk (shamble) do the skeletons? I decided yes, they are dead and animated by foul magics so they have the taint of death and decay about them, plus also the army would look odd if the bases were not all the same. So here they are: Oh, I decided not to go for white bones as was common back in the day, in my head that did not seem ...

Michaels Mordheim Mashup - Update

The vampire Ingrid Karnstein and hunter of the undead Piotr Von Heiligsheld and his hound Kiszen. Nothing is finished yet, Ingrid is a WIP.

Michaels Mordheim Mashup

So having decided to play a version of Mordheim but in my rural setting of Heiligsheld I just need to decide the feel. I am torn between a more traditional WFB style of model and a sort of more historical Hammer Horror style model. I am thinking models that are much less war and more day to day, for example my wife will be playing an undead vampire led warband and whilst I have a WFB vampire, it is very fantasy, I am tempted to use a regular female noble as the vampire. Just pale skin and maybe red eyes. Same with my own warband, which is likely to be witch hunters. I imagine a witch hunter and his entourage coming to Heiligsheld. For the witch hunter, I am thinking less warrior and more magistrate and his priest more of a puritan preacher. I am wanting to make it more historical in its look and low key. So yes vampires, zombies, werewolves, witches and all that jazz, but without all the skulls. One reason for this is my wife and I watch old Hammer Horror films and we lov...
