Wrath and Glory: Indecision

The agents touched down in their rickety Aquila lander[1] and were met by the local enforcer, an older woman called Rashida. She brought them up to speed on the local state of affairs[2] and they witnessed the evening's feeding time - the refugees crowding outside the wall, and the villagers throwing them some scraps. They quickly identified two gangs that stood out: the Water Bringers (who are said to be harboring the Saint) and the Deluge (who Rashida knows to be the most violent gangers in the shanty town). I expected the agents to jump into the action, but they had other ideas.

Painting tormented skeletons in green flames

Introduction

With the Bloodreavers being WIP for weeks on end, I sometimes lost the will to continue. In times like that, I hammered through simpler parts of the commission.

M.A.G.U.S. - Dwarves and dragons, part 2

Preamble

After a mere 9 months of hiatus (thanks Corona!) the MAGUS crew reassembled! Our initial plan was to meet face to face, but that changed real fast as the number of COVID-infections grew. Not to mention our kids bringing home all sorts of things from kindergarten. We decided to have the game night online, on good old roll20.

Repainting a skull faced D6

To cut it short, a friend gifted this to me. It looks awful. I decided to improve upon it...


...by painting the skulls in bone (Contrast!) 
Again, I prefered Wraithbone over Bonewhite basecoat for covering power.

Creating statues/terrain for Warhammer 40k and AoS

Introduction


I have a mound of stuff in various boxes which I'll turn into terrain - "some day". This is my first actual attempt at creating terrain, using two old statuettes.

Graveyard Shift: The end. Transition to Rain of Mercy

The session started off with the agents as rather passive spectators, as the scene of battle wound down. The interrogator shut down the last remaining arco-flagellant, then sedated Sister Palmulata and sealed her wound. The agents gathered her (and her arm) and placed her on a makeshift bed. As the interrogator went to check on the pilot servitors, the agents rummaged around the ship for healing supplies and regrouped to recover their wounds.
