Something Wicked...

Good Thursday all!

So today my Baby Kade arrived in the mail, and that means it's soon to be hobby time again! Yay!

And on the same day I found this on Wyrd's website;


Yes it appears that someone at Wyrd has had the same idea as me but in a deconstructed manner.

But first let me go back a step:

So as you should all hopefully know, I'm preparing for my first tournament: At the Mountains of Malifaux.

One of the events at this tournament is a Wyrd "Best Mini" in a Halloween theme, allowing for good paint jobs, modelling jobs, etc.

I decided a while ago that I needed to enter myself. I probably don't stand a chance in winning, but who was I to set a challenge, if I wasn't going to take part in it?

So from there my mind got racing. I needed to decide on a model, something I could paint/convert, but also something that I could also use in games (no point otherwise).

From that brain splurge came Karving Kade, a hybrid concept of Baby Kade with a pumpkin head (or in Malifaux terms, The Carver).

And so with this fresh in my mind, tonight I am giving my WoW levelling a pause (I'm half a level away from 90) and starting on the model.

For a quick idea, I'm looking to make a graveyard scenic base, accompanied by Kade himself with a modelled Greenstuff Pumpkin Head.

Wish me luck, and I'll see you all breachside!
