ub3r_n3rd Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Got on the Internet just in time to see Twisted selling master copies of Carter, there's only 25 so I hope I managed to snag one as he's looking awesome! He is a pretty neat figure. The sculptor should've made his face more oval/longer to get more in line with the artwork IMO though. I agree, I would've also liked the gun holster and walking stick to carry over to the sculpt as well, but I'm still looking forward to seeing if I got one. I also noticed the urn thing looks quite different. It's like some sculptors take a few too many liberties with the sculpt and change some really cool stuff. He's still a really neat figure, but isn't as cool as the art IMO. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aard_Rinn Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I've been thinking about grabbing some Overlords knights, building a little army for Warlord and also finishing my town guard (while I like the three guys I've got, I need more, and the Overlord dudes are so much more knightly than the DHL ones) and so I was looking at 14310, the Standard & Musician, Overlords, who I really like, especially for an army setting, but have always been too expensive for me to justify unless I made an army. So I went on ebay, just to see if anyone was letting one go for a buck or two off, and grabbed the pair in-box for 6.95$ +2$ shipping. So, uh, yeah, I guess I play Overlords now. I'm happy, though, because they are my favorites! The knights are so cool! also, Vincente! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowRaven Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I prefer the Crusaders for knightly dudes, but some of the Overlord models are pretty sway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dai-Mongar Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Ah, Warlord. One of those games that I have several armies for but have never played. Seems good on paper though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aard_Rinn Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Eh, I could never get into chain for knights. Plate mail and helms're more my style - especially for city guards, who are going to be recycled a lot. The same redheaded fighter showing up to every squabble 3, 4 times gets kind of old. Plus, you just cannot beat the 3$ crossbowman. My players are gonna hate those (until the dragon shows up (the evil one, not the mayor)) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's still a really neat figure, but isn't as cool as the art IMO. It's not always easy to translate 2-D concept art into 3-D sculpts. It's all too easy to misunderstand details. The urn looks smooth under that coloration, so that part doesn't bother me. It looks like the sculptor didn't recognize that the urn was based on a canopic jar with the head of Thoth and shifted the long ibis-head to something more like a raven, and did not realize that the two "ears" were on the sides of the head rather than one in front of the other on the top of the head. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willen Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 And it was a happy day in la France... (no nude pictures with the book because ouberd* said it would be not forum-friendly!) This weekend is going to be rainy, so no a lot of sightseeing can be done, and I am very sad I don't have my paints and brushes with me and I cannot paint! *now I am in France, so all words need to be "french") 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
