I repainted another Dreamblade Mini
its mindboggling how many good Miniatures there are considering how crappy the overall dreamblade miniatures look
Dreamblade the gift that keeps on giving
So ….yeah…another Dreamblade conversion/repaint
i had to replace the head with one of the mantic Ghoul heads…..and he really looks batshit insane now
i cant wait to use him in a game of Strange aeons…
I may go as far as writing my own scenario….The Threshold team has to escort this maniac fom one edge of the board to the other
while the Lurkers try to free him
so i redesigned and repainted another Dreamblade mini called a Skittering smeech
i removed the tail , the head and addet some clothes ( basically to one-up my greenstuff skills) and a head
I got the idea to build this mini by watching Dagon and remembering that the Dreamblade figure has a cape made of human skin
i think this fits in well with the overall creepyness of lovecrafts works

i finished another miniature for strange aeons
the base for this miniature was a Dreamblade figure called Doctor Agony. I had to cut of a bit of his legs and lab coat….also i shortened the arms and removed the head. i then replaced the hands with one holding a knife and one holding one of herbert Wests Serum syringes….i also replaced the head with a mantic ghoul head
heres a before / after conversion build
its pretty impressive how different the miniature looks now, and i must admit im proud of myself 😀
i did another dreamblade repaint…well four repaints to be exact, and i think those creepy liddle things work great as Yakubians as described in The llenge from beyond, or as any other kind of Lovecraftian maggot monsters
“It was a gigantic, pale-grey worm or centipede, as large around as a man and twice as long, with a disc-like, apparently eyeless, cilia-fringed head bearing a purple central orifice. It glided on its rear pairs of legs, with its fore part raised vertically—the legs, or at least two pairs of them, serving as arms. Along its spinal ridge was a curious purple comb, and a fan-shaped tail of some grey membrane ended its grotesque bulk. There was a ring of flexible red spikes around its neck, and from the twistings of these came clicking, twanging sounds in measured, deliberate rhythms.“

the only thing that differs greatly are the eyes…..but i can live with that
