Histrofigs 18mm Hero’s

Here are six 18mm unique zombie hunters. These like the remainder of the zombies will be used to replace a set of cardboard zombies that accompanied print and play board game. They should make the game more interesting.

Histrofigs 18mm Zombies

There are a few of this mix being used for a work in process, but there were 21 mixed 18mm zombies in this collection and I counted seven unique sculps within their ranks. I measured these up against a HO gauge figure and these 18mm miniatures can easily take the place of a 1/87 miniature. I never thought I would have

Properties for Histrofigs Beast #2

Is this creature a Sasquatch or otherwise known as a Bigfoot?

Intelligence:	4
Dexterity:	4
Movement:	1
Stealth:	3
Methods of Attacks:	This creature is very large and strong. It can easily knock or push large and heavy objects out of its way. It has claws and with its strength could easily disfigure its prey with one sweep of its paw. It also has a set to teeth that can be used tear and chew.
Other Characteristics:	Those with a sensitive sense of smell might smell this creature before you hear or see it. People often associate its odor to one of an un-bathed dog.

Properties for Histrofigs Beast #1

---

Intelligence:	0
Dexterity:	1
Movement:	1 (only during nights of a full moon during the spring and summer)
Stealth	This beast is not all that stealth-full in itself as you might hear its shuffle across weeds and twigs as it glides to a desirable location.
Method of attack:	If you get close enough to the Venus fly trap located on its one branch you might lose a mouthful of flesh. It can also send out suckers to hopefully entwine its victims. Never lay a bed roll out anywhere near this creature for it is sure to entangle you while you sleep and you draw you back to itself. You will waken to find yourself hopelessly entangled and held tightly. Once it has you totally entangled to itself it is slow and tortuous process as the its vines and creepers start to constrict on all points that you have become entwined. Eventually you will become one with this vegetable creature.

Histroifigs 18mm Monsters

Why 18mm miniatures?

1). It is about time that I add a few monsters to my collection.

2). Monsters can be played as wild cards, creatures that show up randomly throughout play.

3). 18mm is not too much smaller than 20mm, the size of miniatures that I am planning on playing them against.

Histroifigs, TI-03, Monsters (bag of 3 mixed), contains three different monsters, which I will do my best to describe.

One the miniature is winged, the winged piece will need to be attached, to what looks like a furry body with a tail. This creature is standing on its hind legs and has long sharp claws on its feet. The creatures face is hidden behind one of its two front paws that look like crab or lobster claws.

The second creature resembles a crouching bear. It has its snout sticking straight up in the air. I mentioned that the creature seems to resemble a bear, but its legs seem too long for a bear and also the way it is crouching doesn’t remind me of a position a bear could put itself. 

The last miniature is most troubling out of the three. The creature looks more like a plant than an animal. It has what resembles two legs. Its face, if you want to call it that looks an ill formed flower or perhaps a mouth of an octopus. It has two arms, or are they branches, that are interwoven with vines? At the top of one branch there is a large Venus fly trap and the other with many interwoven creepers. In addition to these features, there are also clumps of growths and has interwoven creepers on its legs and torso. 

Projects for December

Although I might add a project or two I will strive to keep the list short this month.

HistoriFigs, #I-03, 3-18mm Monsters

I have wanted to add a few monsters to my collection of war-gaming miniatures. These types of characters can add some random havoc to some dungeon crawl or other game scenario. I am not quite sure how I am going to proceed with the painting, but I do plan on making a slight modification to one of the miniatures in the set. 

Blasted Planets Order #2

My order from Historifigs arrived a few days earlier than expected. It contained the following items:

TI-03, Monsters (bag of 3 mixed), 18mm

25mm-Special Figures

BP-002  Brain Siphon (aka N'ood)             

BP-003  The Monk                                          

BP-007  Space Vampire w/Needle Gun 

BP-004  The Brotherhood: Assassin         

BP-005  The Brotherhood: Arsonist

               

F-12       20mm, Hobbit w/Sword                               

Overall I am very satisfied with these miniatures. I have made many posts on monsters, but have yet to add one to my collection. The 25mm miniatures will be used in a skirmish game of some sort or with the Blasted Planets game rules. They are all very odd looking and I am looking forward to creating properties and a back story for these characters.

I will be writing more about these miniatures shortly, but in the meantime, I feel compelled to paint my first hobbit. I will get back to you on the progress of these miniatures.
