That'd be a baruk packbeast, a kosok and the Travelling Court of the Brownie King. Lovely paintjobs on all three  Smiley

Part of me now thinks the Travelling Court is a creature from Fubarnii mythology...

"So, you think the world is a castle that is carried on the back of a baruk?"

"Yes, of course."

"And what is the baruk standing on?"

"Silly boy, its Baruk all the way down!"

Awesome job, Gi6ers Smiley

But it's not fair - just as I decided on waiting picking up the Baruk variant - you just insist bring salt to my wound Sad And remind me how much I need it  Angry

The travelling court certainly has a place in the Twilight World - you really have to come up with a Myth explaining its place, here. One of my favourite Hasslefree Sculpts - and with Sjoerd's awesome Chaos Dwarfs - the first HF miniatures I bought. Think I might have to get me a second one. First one was painted and used as present for a dear friend. And would really like try painting it again.

I've had my eye on the travelling court for a while, too.

Nice Baruk.

Very nice models - I particularly like the creatures' skins. Smiley

I was looking at the Travelling Court again yesterday after reading some background on Twilight, and it occurred to me that if you cut the castle off, you'd have a pretty good base for a Baruk-mounted howdah for carrying around a particularly important/wealthy/lazy trader.

Funny you mentioned that, as I've removed the castle from one of mine, pretty much for that reason.

Don't worry, I'm all in favour of dismemberment and/or limb removal, just so long as theinal product looks cool and you share pics here.
Jules is right though, the brickwork on those little towers took an age to sculpt! Gi6ers paint job on it is probably my favourite though, and ceertainly made it worthwhile  Smiley

awww shucks.  Didn't I give you this one at salute last year?  If not I've got no idea where he went....

@Ben - These are over a year old, but Easter is proving a little quiet so getting a few done  Grin

You are now my favourite person on this forum (other than the creator of this excellent world) for the use of Pratchett. Ok, I know "Turtles all the way down!" doesn't originate with Pratchett, but anything Pratchett uses becomes infinitely more awesome.

Anyway, what are the creation myths for Twilight? Do the different creatures of the Trivitaetasa Phylum generally agree on a single creation myth with variations, or do they have completely different ideas? Is there a 'real' creation myth, or have you not decided on one to be real on the basis that the denizens of Anyaral don't collectively know?
