Tomb kings/Egyptian inspiration megathread.

That's awesome

 

I go away and find that this thread has sprung up? It's like a present to me!

Nice work, guys. If people like miniatures that inspire ancient egypt, check out Wargods of Aegyptus. The book is gorgeous, and the minis are pretty cool. The game feels like it's dead though, as I've not heard of anyone who wants to play it in a long time. :/

 

I actually picked up a couple of items from their range. A scorpion shield a couple of sarcophagi, an obelisk and an ark. Good stuff.

 

They started to release some really cool units towards the end, but then they just stopped. It's a shame, because the units were amazing! The Skyhawks and Necropolis Guard minis are gorgeous!

I have a thing for ancient Egypt. I got to write up a small section on an Egyptian themed setting for Mechas and Monsters last year.

 

Oh! And if it hasn't been mentioned yet, the Amonkhet art book for Magic the Gathering and the free Dungeons and Dragons 5E pdf for it are wonderful sources of inspiration and feature beautiful artwork. https://media.wizards.com/2017/downloads/magic/plane-shift_amonkhet.pdf

 

They definitely had some neat stuff, it's a shame they aren't producing more.

Are you a member of: http://s4.zetaboards.com/Khemri/index/ ?

Thanks! That's a great resource.

 

I was! I was Rhamsu-Seker, but I didn't post much and mostly lurked.

 

Admittedly there aren't a lot of posts on there as of late. Traffic on the forum is all but gone; great legacy resources though. It is a shame that the photobucket issue has resulted in a great deal of lost images.

@Killer Angel from our forum is probably one of the most active members over there.

 

Wargods has awesome stuff. I need to get more of it, but it's relatively expensive.

Feel free to post that in the fluff forum.

Ahmonket has some great design elements

 

What book is this then?

 

You are a brave and noble proponent of the Khemri forum! The last of your kind. I commend you good sir!

Just so you know, my section is only 1,500 words out of the book before you consider buying it. I love my work on the book and what the other writers including Alan came up with, but I don't want people to feel tricked into buying it for a small section. Though I liked the section.

 

Hopefully he joins our enclave here

 

Appreciate that. I'll pick it up when I have a spare $10

 

Who are you hoping joins us here?

 

Everyone on tomb kings
