Ben's Minotaurs (200 points)

Minotaurs. Bad ass pink and green Minotaurs with metallic blue armor and shiny black leather.


We have 5 Minotaurs at 40 points each giving me a perfect 200 for the month. I tried to tie the figures together by making the horns and fur similar colors throughout the unit. Additionally all of the black accessories have been given a generous coat of gloss varnish. It calls forth visions of the Gimps outfit in Pulp Fiction. The bases have been tarted up with some skulls and a few mushrooms. 


Bloodcry the Beast and Clubhorn Runesmasher have been spreading the word since 1985 thanks to some fine sculpting by Bob Naismith.


Lars and Babe. These guys don't have cool names so I had to make some up. Lars is from Marauder, MM46 1990 and sculpted by someone named Morrison. Babe is a late 80s Citadel using "sword body" and "head 1", I'm unsure of the sculptor. 


Ox-Roar "Chaos Champion of Ultimate Slaughter" or ORCCUS to his friends. Sculpted by Mr Naismith and arguably the best name ever given to a figure. ORCCUS is known for both his wisdom and the limit break ability Ultimate Slaughter. Many years ago Babe the most eager and youngest in the group begged his fellows to rush down into the village and feed on a villager. It was Ox-Roar who pulled the herd close and whispered "Let's walk down there and feed on them all." Wise words from the soon to be "Chaos Champion of Ultimate Slaughter". 

March is going to include a handful of Chaos Champions and Warriors. I enjoyed the mushrooms and bit of green stuff work on Babe so I'm going to try my hand at sculpting some wacky stuff on shields next month. As always thanks for looking.
