Helping Hands 10 Crossbow Merc

Tenth of the monthly posting of the other world Henchman in conjunction with Duke of the Blood Keep and Minis by Finch 


My crossbow merc also has yellow as one colours. The armour was built up using Vallejo Field Blue. The other two merc will be also be sporting nifty blue cloaks.

Although not featured some of my other otherworld figures should be making their first bid for fame in a game at SEEMS tomorrow using the SOBH rules. I will post up some pics.

As an aside it is certainly making me realise that my figures look a bit better on the table top than they do with the glory of close up exposing all the flaws.

Well done. I quite like the shade of blue used on the armor.

Mordheim initially springs to mind with a solid background and some nice terrain already build. My original plan was to use the figures as part of a D&D game but this still looks a long way off. With my thoughts returning to old school gaming I have been toying with gladiatorial battles perhaps using the fantasy trip or one of the early old school games. This has now come around to possibly using 3 rd (or 2 nd ) edition warhammer fantasy battle.  These early rule sets certainly cover most of the creatures that I was thinking of using and of course I already own the rules. For 3 rd edition I have the rulebook, siege, army lists and slaves to darkness. So plenty to be getting on with. I also have the box and booklet for Terror of the Lichemaster but the cardboard figures and most of the buildings are long gone. However I do really like the later editions of WHFB, w
