Myrlyn Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Hi folks: I'm currently running the Shades of Black adventure for my players, and they are going to be runnign through the first big fight at the end of Act One in our next session. I'd like to have some nice figures (28mm scale) to use in the battle and am looking for some recommendations for the following characters. I have a fairly large selection of HeroClix figures to draw from and lots of Reaper Metal and Bones figures that could be used in a pinch, but if anyone has any spot on recommendations for the following viallains, I'd love to see what others are using for: Black Paladin Talisman Lady Crow Griffin (currently considering using Reaper Bones Griffin for this guy even though it isn't really a biped miniature) Hellhound Black Paladin's Horse Thanks in advance for any recommendations.

Adrian Gideon Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 I'm interested in this as well (not necesarrily for Shades of Black). I've already got this miniature for Griffin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninja-Bear Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 What are Lady Crow and Tailsman's powers? Some idea would help for suggestions. Have you looked at Gamesworkshop? I would think they would have something in their Warhammer (fantasy) that would suit Black Paladin. (i'll lookwhen I get a chance) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myrlyn Posted February 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 That Hordes figure looks perfect Adrian, thanks for sharing (now to see where I can get one cheaply...). I'm interested in this as well (not necesarrily for Shades of Black). I've already got this miniature for Griffin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myrlyn Posted February 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 Lady Crow is a woman who is transformed into a half crow/human hybrid via magic. She can control other avians telepathically and has some light combat capabilities. As for Talisman, she is a sorceress, and is a well known villain in the Champions universe. She also appears in the Champions Online game. Here's a couple of links to images of each: Lady Crow Talisman What are Lady Crow and Tailsman's powers? Some idea would help for suggestions.

Myrlyn Posted February 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 Just found out that Hasslefree miniatures makes a biped Griffin figure as well. Now I'm torn: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myrlyn Posted February 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 For the hell hound, Heresy makes an interesting set... I thought they used to have one that looked more like the hounds from Ghostbusters but I can't find it now. I may also jsut go with some Kroot hounds that I have already, as this figure isn't as prominent in the story as the others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myrlyn Posted March 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2014 Shameless bump. Still looking for ideas for a Talisman figure and/or Lady Crow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myrlyn Posted March 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2014 May have found a good figure for the Black Paladin... Lord Ulthrak from Hasslefree Minatures: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greywind Posted March 12, 2014 Report Share Posted March 12, 2014 Nice one Greywind. What's the name of that heroclix? Sorry. I hadn't seen this. That's actually from Mage Knight: Sorcery. It's a Blood Demon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myrlyn Posted March 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 May have found something I could convert for Lady Crow - Reaper Miniatures Birdman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myrlyn Posted March 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 And I think I finally found a decent Talisman. If I can remove the cape off this figure, I think we're golden: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burrito Boy Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 May have found a good figure for the Black Paladin... Lord Ulthrak from Hasslefree Minatures: Lord Ulthrak? He looks like Gath of Baal to me. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_Dealer_(painting) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
