tribal characters for D&D....and pulp

 continuing working on the tribal miniatures from the Solomon Kane:
Against the Vampires board game set.
also converting more figures to 1.5mm bases.
and then here and there in between i've been writing and rewriting campaign
adventures for our new upcoming campaign.

i always figured this miniature would be the overall ruler of whatever i would
use these tribesmen.

the witch doctor.
at first i forgot to paint the face and once i went out to spray the figure with a varnish
i saw it and thought it kinda looks better with the white.
almost looks like a painted skull.

giant rats from GW's classic Necromunda game,
that had 3mm bases and reverted to 1.5mm.
in Dungeons and Dragons i could use these as diseased plague rats,
maybe with a small increase in hit points.

 

the champion.
large muscular brute armed with a huge two-handed sword with gold threaded
in and out and around the blade of the weapon.

i thought of this fellow as being a spellcaster of some sorts like a shaman.
i wanted to do something cool so i gave him some warpaint on his hands/forearms
and on his face.

from under the temple burst out a giant worm, the shaman begins to chant
and conjures a spell.
