Golgotha's Battle Masters - Evil Barbarian Human Chaos Archers

Herewith, most recent Battle Masters progress. Finally made a start on the Evil Barbarian Human Chaos Archers. One certainly does not see many of these miniatures they seem to be less popular than other miniatures in the box. I must say I was not originally that keen on them but I am growing more fond of them as I make progress on them. 

I cut and sanded away the rather numerous and very pronounced join lines and added quivers - the quivers are from Mantic's Naiad miniatures which I had spare. I have decided to keep the mohawks afterall. I picture these bowmen not necessarily having the greatest range but given the power of their muscles, large bows and big arrow heads having good penetration and stopping power. 

Hope mine come out as well as this chaps see: http://paintingagency.blogspot.com/2005/04/chaos-archer.html

The Naiad's themselves I am in the process of adding fish tails, turning them into merfolk to be even more aquatic in appearance. Will be working on making an under sea skirmish game of some sort maybe converting rules from Deep Wars, see: https://antimatter-games.com/deepwars/ and https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/121626/deepwars but that is another topic entirely. 

See: http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=123972.30 

I only have 9 of these which is a real pity as the original set had 10, worse is that for most units I have more than came in the original box. See: https://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/700/battle-masters















Herewith initial paint job - some detailing still to be added but main colours done. Will get them all to this stage and then basing will need to happen.
