Jaqar started out as a Thief on the mean streets of Vornheim cutting purses and generally living the hard scrabble life of a downtrodden medieval peasant but after joining with a group of adventurers found himself magically transported to the distant Purple Planet where he fought an assortment of weird aliens and alien/human hybrids.
Our last season ended with the group finding a spaceship that due to a few lucky rolls and the addition of a skull-mask/cap Jaqar was able to figure out how to pilot. As part of their change in scenery and circumstance the group adopted the uniforms of the former ship crew which were basically colour-coded boiler suits. Jaqar took to wear an orange uniform but after some reflection on my part I realised he's been too consistently squishy to stop wearing his armour so he's thrown his studded leather on over top of his crew uniform (and added a shield) for the group's new journey to the stars.
Jaqar is made up of a bunch of different plastic components. I started with the same bretonian body as the original model to represent his armour. He's got the head from a Frostgrave Cultist so I could get a neat looking helm/mask, and a Frostgrave soldier sprue provided his new shield. For his arms and legs I cut them off a Heroclix Arkham Inmate model. To finish off he has a sword from the bretonian men-at-arms sprue and a backpack from the Warlord British Infantry for Bolt Action. A lot of chopping and swapping....
And here's the original for comparison.
Overall I'm pretty happy with how he turned out.
It might be cowboy time now.......

FANTASTIC!
ReplyDeleteI'd like to see more front and back shots of your figures Jay.
Also, Jaqar has a laser rifle right?? You should sling that to his back.
Thanks man!
DeleteAlthough we all have Blaster Rifles Jaqar is a Thief due to his high Luck stat, his Agility is actually below average and missle weapons are probably not his friends.
I'll start including more angles next post.
