We all like to pretend that we know what's coming, or we figured out the plot twist before it happens. I'm not going to lie, if you had asked me when I painted my first miniature in 1986; "Hey Jay, at some point do you think you'll paint a giant pig-man armed with a street lamp and riot shield?" I don't think I would have seen that coming.
As Ash and I ramp up to what I suspect is the beginning of the end of our super-fun This Is Not A Test campaign I do need to bust out a "boss monster" type figure for the final encounter and this feels pretty right to me.
So Napoleon is a Wrath Of Kings Teknes model armed with a street lamp from the Malifaux Lamps pack and carrying a shock shield (that I found during my first post-game way back when) from a Games Workshop Ogryn kit.
I'm really impressed with how all the pieces came together and I think the figure looks suitably ramshackle while also being super-menacing.
He should see some paint over the next few days and then the mayhem is only a game or two away!
