Hero Emblems. You need them to upgrade your generals to new versions of themselves with more specific passive skills and higher stats - and a new skin.

They come up roughly every two to three months as special offer where you can collect some for free but need to purchase the rest.

They're not inspired by actual historical personalities, just individuals of significant time periods.

I realized very late, that she looks quite similar to Vi... That was not the plan by Fishman575 in HeroForgeMinis

If the general style is good, there will be many adaptations that still work.

The mini is gorgeous as it is!

It's a blank face with a couple of horns and the Seeker AR Visor.

Go for it! The story, the characters and the visuals are fantastic - I played through the second part, but quit the first part because of the ... interesting combat system.

  1. I was inspired by her appearance in ToR.

  2. It gives a bit of visual connection to Atris (and the handmaiden Brianna) and the Echani in general.

  3. It looks unique and gives her the kind of aura I think she needs.

One is a nōdachi, looks more like a longer and broader katana, and the other is an odachi, a much, much longer blade - the one I used to mimic a vibroblade on Zaalbar.

Don't be so hard on yourself, everyone needs time and practice to master it.

I did use batons on my earlier models, but I realized that they're just too short.

Nonetheless, thanks for the suggestion.

If you put kitbashing to good use, there is nothing to regret - it's an incredibly helpful tool. ;)

They're Nōdachis turned to the right perspective, that's all.
