Now that Leopardpixie has received her gift, here's the painted mini I sent her.  She didn't give me many suggestions so I pull her favorite colors from her profile (pink and black) and used those as the starting point.

 

I do have a feeling that he gets a lot of crap about the color of his cloak (RMS Cactus Flower) from fellow adventurers.  "Shut up guys!  It's lightish red" or "Who cares what it looks like, it gives me a +3 to all my saves!"

Dagnabbit!  There wasn't a note in there Talae?  I could have sworn I put it on top before I closed the box...  Now I need to rummage through the pile o' papers on the desk and make sure I didn't "accidentally" put it in another box I was sending out.

 

Short crux of the note:  I wasn't sure what to paint for you, until I saw you posting in the CAV threads about the KS.  Most folks who are just jumping into CAV don't think about infantry or tanks, but just go for the big CAVs.  Infantry can be fun to play in the CAV world, especially when folks at thinking BSR, and all they get are MINI minis....  ;)

 

I hope you enjoy them!

Back when the husband and I were in the SCA his mom had made this padded gambeson to wear under his armor that was pink.  When I pointed this out (he's pretty dern colorblind) he said "It's called heather red!"  Apparently that's what the name said on the fabric bolt.  If you got within inches of it you could see that it wasn't dyed overall pink, but had been woven of alternating red & white threads.  If you got more than about a foot away it was pink as all get-out.

That Cymorian Warrior is pretty cool. I've looked at picking him up a time or two, but something else always manages to bump him. Usually something newer and shinier.

It is definitely an intriguing mini. I will have to find a way to include it in my next campaign, for sure. (not currently DMing, or I would include it now)

I had a hunch it was you based on the case included being the same as the Box of Goodwill. The CAV units are awesome! I have had a few sitting in my cart for a while. I am actually debating on working some BSR into my paint queue soon. That would require me to take the time to read up on the CAV rules a little first, though. I want to make sure I can game with them if I ever find someone I can convince to play.
