Blog Marcus' painting blog 2022

After two versions and print-proofs, I've made a ball joint that fits wargames Atlantic plastics. I've also sized heads appropriately, and they require a very easy spacer addition to affix to the wargames Atlantic skeleton bodies.

I finally have sturdy skeletons that resemble my tomb kings of yore, without paying eBay pricing.

I have achieved a hobby goal years in the making and I am so happy.

There seems to be some flash on the inside blade of the khopeshes, making them look thicker than usual (in particular on the first one on the left). Removing that would please Settra a lot. Settra does not approve of his legions having flash on their khopeshes.

Additionally I don't really see the point in sculpting additional skulls without Egyptian headdresses, given the Wargames Atlantic set has loads of those.

Otherwise, it is pleasing to now see three potential avenues for starting a plastic Tomb Kings force (Mantic, Norba and now your 3D-Printed extras combined with Wargames Atlantic's kit). Well done on completing such a worthy feat! :)

1. That's not flash that's the way the khopesh were sculpted. Txarli seem to have confused them with a sword when they're actually more like a hand axe.

2. I thought it added variety with the various levels of damage the skulls have taken.
 
They look very great, much like the Tomb Kings indeed!
Job well done!

Grrr, Imrahil
 
I really love the basing on your Skelly's the black mixed sand is very distinct and more nefarious!

Oh yea. The skeleton, if at same base hieght, comes up to about his knee.

Considering lore-wise nehekharans were larger individuals comparable to Norscans in height, I'm good with that.
