Lord Vladivus Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 Overview: Nocturnus: King of the Undead- A mighty Lord, he presides over the living dead. All he really wants is a nice cup of bloodwine and an enchanted pumpkin pie. Black Spire Orc Captain- A fearsome opponent, he has orchestrated many raids on Shadowmere. Gorilla Tracker- Formerly of the Island of Gorr in Kaliphlin, he travelled to Nocturnus to join the Moruth Rangers, but can now be found harassing Black Spire raiding parties. Fishwhiskers- A distuingished Nocturnian noble with a penchant for raw fish, the smell of which often gets him prematurely ejected from the highbrow parties he like to attend. Mitgardia: Jarl Snowy- Cold as the snow itself, he has fought many horrors, and now leads a band of men and dwarves. Mountain Barbarian- Likes to shout and throw axes around, but actually enjoys making snow angels- the snow on his bare skin cools his fiery temper. Bearded Lady- Ladies in Mitgardia can grow impressive beards. That sword, although dangerous looking, is for trimming the wiry hairs of her beard. Dwarf Solider- Loyal to the Jarl, except when he spots gold. Ooooooo shiny... Kaliphlin: Island Warrioress- Don't be fooled noble knights, this beautiful maiden would sooner take your head, than take you to bed. Perpetually Angry Merchant- His scams always backfire, but he has his key to his lock-up, and a sackful of cheap knock-off fake githril ornaments to peddle. Perhaps he'll smile if this one works. Leander Centurion- The Leander are mighty, noble warriors, and the Centurion epitomises this- few wish to face him on the battlefield, where his claws and teeth are as much weapons as his gladius. Carn Nightwatchman- Although he's scared of the dark, he's got a big lantern, and practices scowling to cover up his fear. Avalonia: "Where's my tights?" Knight- Everyone knows that Avalonians can't go to battle without their tights, but the Knight seems to keep losing his when he goes daffodil picking. Elven Ranger- A deadly shot, the daughter of the Elven King prefers to hang out with the lads and shoot Drow. Tree-trimmer- The trees of Vanhorn would quickly take over if it wasn't for this plucky soul and his axe. Once he's done chopping he loads the branches into a cart with his fork. Elven King- The greatest and eldest of the elves, there is little that he has not seen. A masterful Mage, it is rumoured he helped teach the first Druids. Well there we are- I found this quite hard to do this late on in the contest- there's been some superb entries. But here's my offering. I think a few might find themselves in my future builds. I do apologise in advance for the graininess of the photos- winter sucks as I don't have a decent lighting setup. C+C welcome! Quote
Slegengr Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 Great series, Lord Vladivus! I may be biased, but my favorite is Jarl Snowy! I also like the dwarf soldier, elven ranger, and the perpetually angry merchant. Quote
Graham Gidman Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 I really like that Mountain Barbarian! Quote
mccoyed Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 I like the Mountain Man quite a bit. Good work! Quote
MKJoshA Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 I love your Avalonian figs and the angry merchant! Great job Vlad! Quote
Captain Braunsfeld Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 A good series, Lord Vladivus, and not too serious! I like the King of the Undead, the Perpetually Angry Merchant reminds me of my "unhappy carrot customer" - and the "Where's my tights?" Knight is very funny. Those Avalonians... Quote
Tomsche Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 Fishwhiskers gives me the creeps Good looking series! Quote
Blufiji Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 The bearded lady and the angry merchant had me chuckling. Quote
TheUtilityBelt Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 That Carn Night watchmen is awesome! 'Tis true that we are afraid of the dark, except Halt who is a werewolf! Quote
LordDan Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 The elf king and leander centurion look nice! Quote
Lord Vladivus Posted January 23, 2015 Author Posted January 23, 2015 Thanks guys! Glad you like them! I tried to inject humour as my serious descriptions seemed a bit boring, and also to include things from all over the Historica background. There are other characters that got dropped, but I still really like, so if I manage to make some more figs, there might be a second one. I'll have to include some Varylioans in that one, I have a few built. Quote
Mike S Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 Fantastic series! Where's my tights knight is brilliant use of humor! I really like that dwarf soldier... great hair/beard combo. Fish whiskers is another clever figure, perfect for Nocturnus. Nice to see the Leander included. Masa will have to send Lord Vladivus a gift mount(I have a post planned, just need to take some pics) to help make the Gorrian Gorilla tracker an even better asset against the Black Spire. Quote
Rogue Angel Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 I love all the humor in yours. Fishwhiskers and the Jarl are my favorites. Great job! Quote
Gunman Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 Nice humor mate! :) I really like Carn Nightwatchman,Jarl Snowy and Fishwhiskers. Quote
Lord Vladivus Posted January 23, 2015 Author Posted January 23, 2015 Thanks guys! It's interesting that the Jarl is getting so much praise- he felt like one of the least inspired and nearly got cut! @Mike that sounds awesome! Quote
mrcp6d Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 Hehe - the Avalonian knight cracked me up Quote
soccerkid6 Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 Glad you were able to get an entry in. Lots of neat figs and amusing descriptions The night watchmen, tree trimmer, and Jarl Snowy are my favorites Quote
Robert8 Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 Fishwhiskers is pretty scary I laughed so hard with the "Where's my tights?" Knight Congratulations for this wonderful entry! Quote
LittleJohn Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 Very nice series! I really like the dwarf soldier Quote
Venkefedo Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 "Where are my tights?" is great... and Fishwhiskers is a Shakespeare-collar & black-spiky-hair away from being a scaly Lew Zealand! The Mountain Barbarian's also fantastic. Nice series! Quote
