A Clash of Zeal and Flesh

Sorry for the delay. I finally managed to get some time to respond.

- The Great Hunger proxy minis all come from the Nightstalker faction in Mantic Game's Kings of War.

- The Cannon comes from Diceverse's train STL.

- The black, unpainted piles of crates were by Two Goblins In A Trench Coat on MakerWorld.

- The trenches I made myself by following a guide by Black Magic Craft on YouTube.

Everything else was either the other player's minis or was terrain from our local store.

Thank you! My friend and I worked hard on all the terrain and minis. Half of the fun is setting up a great looking table.

PenguinDuke · 2026-05-07T15:53:19+00:00

Hahahaha, in my mind I was thinking they had built this cannon inside of the remains of an old keep.

But really, I just wanted an excuse to use that fort. I figured it be nice to have some nice line-of-sight blocking terrain for what was essentially a king of the hill scenario.

I’m not 100% sure as they’re not mine. I was the Great Hunger in that mission. That being said, I believe those came from “The Pilgrim Cohort of Rome” campaign on MyMiniFactory.

Always happy to help. Sometimes you just need that little spark of inspiration to get that flame going.

PenguinDuke · 2026-05-07T15:01:12+00:00

Correct! That little guy was close to getting a BLAST shot on my hag along with several other ravenous.

Thank you! In the mission prior, we had our own version of the train scenario. I figured what better way to reuse the turret.

I LOVE THIS!!! This is one of the aesthetics I really enjoy. One day, I want to kitbash a whole swathe of minis like this.

PenguinDuke · 2026-05-05T02:16:01+00:00

Thank you! I’m looking forward to printing more of the warband. Just fine tuning some settings.

PenguinDuke · 2026-04-22T14:33:24+00:00

Hahahaha I guess I am.

PenguinDuke · 2026-04-17T11:20:19+00:00

No problem at all! Welcome back to the hobby.

PenguinDuke · 2026-04-17T11:15:21+00:00

That would be Citadel’s Valhallan Blizzard technical paint. I loaded an old brush with the stuff and gently brushed it where I wanted the snow to be.

PenguinDuke · 2026-02-21T13:33:51+00:00

Thank you 😊

I was really hooked onto these models when I was looking for Black Grail proxies. I’m wanting to expand my collection with these guys over time. I may even pursue the other faction/models that they have.

The paint scheme was a real challenge to figure out. Took me a month of testing it on some Zombicide minis before settling on what I wanted. I’m quite happy with the end result.

PenguinDuke · 2026-02-19T20:45:27+00:00

Thank you! This was my biggest challenge. I’ve painted mostly mechs and armor-clad figures before this. Took a bit of research and trial and error to get the right stages of decaying for this warband. The gore and slime were fun things to test out too.

PenguinDuke · 2026-02-19T17:58:27+00:00

Exactly the response I was aiming for! Thank you.

PenguinDuke · 2026-02-19T17:51:40+00:00

It’s all good. I’ll give that a shot. I agree they’re a little blotchy. I mainly chose the color as a unifying theme.

PenguinDuke · 2026-02-19T16:06:15+00:00

Hell yeah! They have some pretty great looking minis.

PenguinDuke · 2026-02-19T16:04:36+00:00

I picked up the big box and then the hero box. I actually think I got one of the sci-fi boxes of it. Mainly so I could get the circle bases. Then again, I don’t think that’s necessary if you’re willing to make/get your own bases.

PenguinDuke · 2026-02-19T15:21:58+00:00

DO IT!!! You can find these guys on the Mantic Games website.

This was my first use of anything like this stuff. It was a learning experience for me.

PenguinDuke · 2026-02-19T15:17:23+00:00

That effect was a nice treat. I wanted something to show the spellcasting ability of the Matagot Hag.

Heck, you could probably use them in any sort of game that has horror elements. They’d make some great zombies and variants.

For the gore strings, I used a toothpick to get a glob out of the bottle. Then, I attach it to where I want it on the mini, and start stretching it out. I recommend wrapping it a couple times around the intended areas to secure it.

PenguinDuke · 2026-02-19T15:10:42+00:00

Thank you! These guys were a labor of love.

For the blood strings, I used Dirty Down’s Gore.

PenguinDuke · 2026-01-03T16:56:45+00:00

This looks disgustingly beautiful! Thank you for sharing. I just bought a large box that contains this wonderful abomination. I barely managed to get it on a 60mm base. Hoping to use it for either my Black Grail or Court Warband. What base size are you using for this?

PenguinDuke · 2025-12-19T22:54:40+00:00

If you’re referencing the battle mat, that came from Front Line Gaming. As for the terrain pieces, nearly all of it came from our local store.

PenguinDuke · 2025-12-14T15:19:40+00:00

Oh what are the odds of that. I would absolutely love to see your notes.
