Title: The Races of Anyaral: A New Range From WoT
Post by: Pyre on September 05, 2012, 06:56:25 pm
Mike and I are delighted to announce a new range focusing on the races that inhabit Anyaral (and Mike's head).

This is an occasional range which will explore the diversity of Anyaral and expand both the setting and your games. "Races" will initially be cast in resin and will allow us to showcase some of the more unusual Fubarnii races. Each release will be supported with a downloadable PDF containing a short piece of fiction, sketches, rules and ideas for including them in your forces and scenarios.

As always talk is cheap so here's a preview of the first miniature from the line, an Eragu warrior. The Eragu are a race of Fubarnii who live on the frozen coasts to the North West of the Empire. They are occasionally seen as mercenaries in militias across the Empire, towering over their southern cousins. This sculpt showcases the talents of two new World of Twilight artists, with Andrew May providing the sculpting talents and Joe Karame showing off his skills with a brush.

Pricing is still being pinned down but they will have a higher unit price based on using sculptors who are not Mike, painters who are not Ben and the restrictive nature of production.

Keep and eye on the horizon!

A great sculpt and a nice paint job. Looking forward to seeing more, especially Eragu; I need to build the forces of Engu. :D

I'm certainly pleased with how this guy has turned out.  :)

This is an exciting little project as it allows me to have a bit of a play around the edges of the world! It will also let me test out ideas that may eventually turn into their own factions or cultures - some will be sculpted by me while others might test out other sculptors and see how well their style fits in with the rest of the range.

I've got playtest rules ready to go so you can slot him in with your empire militia. In theory there will be Eragu knights, but I'm guessing they would struggle to ride an enuk!

Eragu knights? Definately heavy cavalry, lol

In terms of the mini itself it comes in 3 pieces (torso & arms) and is significantly larger than the normal Delgon/Fubarnii as can be seen from this blindingly white piece of photography...

Absolutely nuts seeing a sketch idea come to life like this - very cool to see where Michael and co ran with it and sculpted up this big guy :)

That is a gorgeous mini!  I like that she's noticeably larger than the other fubarnii without encroaching on Devanu/Belog territory.  Nice job!
