Heroquest board and accessories

My next big project was to create a Heroquest board and accessories.

Dollar Store Skeletons and Stygian Boat

Here is a bunch of stuff I made from some skeletons I got at Dollar General around Halloween. 

I made some bone piles.

I also made three necrophidiuses (skeletal snake constructs).

I also used a canoe from Hobby Lobby and some other skeletal bits and pieces and made a Stygian boat.

And last thing I made was a skeletal throne.

I haven't posted for a long time, but I have gotten into crafting using cheap materials.  I will start posting items I have made soon.

If you are interested in starting to craft you can start with these youtube channels and then expand out from there.

Magic the Boardgame: Arena of the Planeswalkers

I purchased a copy of the Arena of the Planeswalkers.

It came with 35 miniatures. There are 6 army units (2 sets of 3 units) and one leader (planeswalker) tied to each of 5 colors (black, blue, green, red, and white).  All of the miniatures are unique stances. The bases are the same size as Heroscape and they are part of the mold, so would not be easy to remove. The base size is really the only major downside to using these for roleplaying.

 

Black Planeswalker: Liliana

Restless Zombies (more like skeleton warriors)

Blue Planeswalker: Jace

Illusionary Projections

Leyline Phantoms

Green Planeswalker: Nissa

Elf Rangers

Pummelroot Elementals

Red Planeswalker: Chandra

Flamewing Phoenixes

Blazing Firecats

White Planeswalker: Gideon

Kor Hookmasters

I can't paint, and neither can't you. Mossman

So after doing the yeti in the last post, I wanted to do something with my other Sasquatch heroclix miniature. For some reason I thought of Mossman from the He-Man cartoon from the early 2000s. This is my result.

I can't paint, and neither can't you. Yeti (Part 2)

So here is the final product. His face lost some details because I had a bit of a mishap, used the wrong dip material, couldn't get it all off, had to repaint it again and the mouth got filled in. :(

Still I think it looks way better than what it start out as.

I'll have to think about if I want to do the other miniature in the same style or go for a more sasquatch feel, with browns and grasses on the base.

I can't paint, and neither can't you. Yeti (Part 1)

So it's been a while since I did an update.

I decide to get a yeti together.

I purchased a Sasquatch Heroclix figure from the Invincible Iron Man set. Now it comes in white or orangish. The white ones go for around $10, while the orangish ones go for around a $1, so I got an orange one.

As you can see compared to a medium sized nova squad leader, the Sasquatch miniature is definitely sized for large.

I had gotten some cheap plastic coins that were suppose to be 2" (as you can see, it is a little bigger as compared to a Dwarven Forge 2"x2" tile) and am using it as a base for my yeti.

Using a 2-part epoxy, I spread it on the base and put the miniature on it (I removed the clix base from the miniature first, but kept the "lima bean" base and just covered it with epoxy).

After letting the epoxy harden, I then put a coat of white paint on the miniature. I left the hands and feet unpainted at this time as I intend to use another color on them once the white dries (probably a grey).
