Cult of the Yellow Sign expands
24/07/2017
In the last game, I fielded the first of my newly painted figures – a Ranger that had replaced an archer that had been killed.
I did up two Rangers as my plan is to steadily replace the low level grunts with more effective ones.
I started mixing the Cultist and Soldiers plastics for Frostgrave. Both sets are fully compatible which makes kit bashing very easy.
To distinguish between Archers and Rangers I used two simple methods.
The cultist plastics come with different, and smaller bows than the soldiers kit..so that was the first obvious difference.
And then I painted the hoods of the ordinary grunts with Foundry Buff Leather, and the Rangers with Foundry Yellow.
You can guess which is which !
the Thugs are also being upgraded to Treasure Hunters. Again, I mixed the two plastic sets.
I think the lanterns which I am using as a marker across all my war bands need a slightly brighter orange which I’ll try next time around.
Again, yellow hoods for these upgraded minions.
A Cultist Knight – metal figure by Northstar. I haven’t actually bought this for the war band but as I had the paints out…
Might do another layer of highlighting on the armour which is still a bit dark.
After this I have his brother the Cultist templar, and a couple more plastics to do and I should be good (or EVIL) for this war band.
