Portrait of Etelka Herzen with her black cat named Shadow, main villain npc from Death on the Reik adventure from The Enemy Within campaign. In our campaign she grew into main power pulling the strings of other minor villains and her perfume lingering from handouts. Illustrated by Martin McKenna, published by Games Workshop in 1987.

Thinking back to the most memorable role playing campaigns, the npc selection seems pivotal. Our The Enemy Within experience was highlighted with personalities like Etelka Herzen and Lady Margritte Von Wittgenstein - they grew into main actors of the play.

It’s well thought out rule set that encourages players to see randomness as opportunities for fun.

Oh, I didn’t know that. Thanks for the info - have to look up that module.

Illustration drawing with black ink pictures adventurer character with left hand holding sword and right hand substituted by a hook holding a shield on his back. Illustration by Peter Mullen for the Dungeon Crawl Classics role playing game, published by Goodman Games.

This is Dungeon Crawl Classics appreciation post. Testing variations of role playing games for odd 30 years now, this “character creation funnel” is very unique game mechanic. You randomize few 0 level characters for each player and survivors grow into actual pcs.

Giant Hill Troll painted metal Citadel miniature from the 1980s. Oldhammer thing now, habitant of Old World back in the day.

Giant Hill Troll, metal Citadel miniature from the 1980s. His huge nose can pick up the smell of mushrooms from miles away, what is handy when you eat as much as Giant Hill Trolls do. Painted and based in the 1980s.

HR Giger public sculpture “Sabotage” in the island of Harakka, Helsinki. The sculpture from 2003 has two metal shoes that you can wear while looking over the archipelago. Building on the background is former site of chemical weapons research laboratories for the Finnish army, now used as artist studios. Sign on the right has a text warning that you test these boots on your own risk…

HR Giger metal sculpture “Sabotage” top view showing the openings where you can slip your feet… on your own risk.

Sabotage is derived from the French word "sabot." A sabot is a clog with a leather top. French farmers who wore them threw their shoes into harvesting and processing machines, thereby blocking and rendering them useless. For the sake of their labor, they engaged in "sabotage."

Great lookin green stuff additions!

Two ways to represent Minotaur in the board game of Blood Bowl. On the left is cardboard stand with printed image of Minotaur on plastic base, distributed with Death Zone expansion in 1987. On the right metal miniature by Willy Miniatures from 2013.

Evolution of Blood Bowl chaos minotaur. Cardboard version of the big guy form 1987 Death Zone expansion box and metal miniature from Indiegogo campaign by Willy Miniatures in 2013. Chaos Team without the minotaur is never an option, no matter what year it is.

Bronze statue with green oxidation texture. Bearded man holding sword from the blade with his right hand. And statue has some animal elements too: man is wearing a wolf pelt and dog is looking up to its master laying on the ground at his feet.

Lookin for oxidation texture inspiration, still have that Blood & Zeal box sculpture terrain piece in my pile of shame. And this dude has some fantasy elements, if nothing else the unrealistic sword stance…

Yes, with custom kitbash and scratch builds the primer paint makes kinda magic - what was mixture of colors and materials gets unified… love that part of the process.

Miniature Rhino tank customized for the Death Guard. Modified with green stuff parts, glass beads and sprue goo casts. Still in unpainted WIP stage but moving forward.

Details added with glass beads and green stuff on the Rhino. Found this little frog figure that could serve as a pilot. Lower front has new spikes too, peril of the antagonist infantry. Still WIP.

Wonderfull thing! Papa Nurgle approves.

Just finished this Champion of Nurgle designed by Jes Godwin in the late 80s. The shield was sculpted from scratch. Final pics soon. #warhammer #warhammercommunit #oldhammer #paintingwarhammer

Black Orc metal miniature from 1988 Iron Claw series, sculpted by Bob Olley.

Iron Claw Black Orc oldschool metal miniature sculpted by Bob Olley. GW lore of the time had them differ from their green-skinned cousins as the strange hairy variants. Figure and the paintjob from the 1980s, when slotta base was the industry standard.

What a cool cover illustration! Menacing looking, chaos spreading, chainsaw wielding greatness!

Great custom job! Papa Nurgle approves!

True dat! Really liked your small scale Nurgle tanks! 🥳

Ok, I didn’t know this, thanks for clarifying. Seems super stupid and ignorant actions by AK, and I condemn this kind of behavior as marketing gimmick. Have to look for my markers somewhere else in the future.

Oh, the memories… still have the Giant Hill Troll with huge nose. Good times.

Oldschool wh40k miniature in strong red light coming from left. Metal cast space marine with mohawk hairstyle and flamer.

Throwback to the simpler times when space marines were cast in metal, only backpacks and bases in plastic. Painted back in the day, more enthusiastic than skilled.

I finished up my #DeathGuard influenced Chaos Spawn. I let the chaos flow through me as I assembled and painted these guys.

Oh, do elaborate a little: what brand (AK or GW) here is problematic for you and how?

Sprue goo custom built terrain piece miniature for Kill Team wh40k skirmish game. Metal highlights done with AK interactive chipping acrylic markers with their package on the left.

Testing out these acrylic paint markers. Thought that this sprue goo custom built terrain piece might be the good testing ground for new tools. Highlights are easy to apply but are easily bit overpowering. Might benefit from Nuln Oil wash…

Green stuff sculpted custom work on Nurgle version of the Rhino tank miniature. Wh40k universe.

More custom work done on the Rhino for the Death Guard. Front plate is modified with green stuff parts and plastic sheet mounted on the roof - and tentacles, off course. Still WIP but evolving.

Oh, that pink Nurgling is so cute!

I wanted to try out some new pinks and am really happy with how it’s turning out! Oh, and there’s a plague marine too I guess
