Jose-you've certainly nailed it transferring the character to the game system! The 'Vox Dei' is a great interpretation of what I was thinking of when I was designing the fig, and your rules for the Screamers are great! It nicely integrates him with Jim's figs too! Pleasure working with you!

Here's my entry for May's Hoard: Beauty and the BeastI re-visited my Steampunk theme from April's Hoard-really started to get into the whole Steampunk thing! Enlisted by the British government in return for a full pardon, Moreau’s second wave of BEASTmen (Behaviourally Enhanced Animal Science Troops) were created to aid in the battle against the emerging wave of science pirates and supernatural invaders-notably the undead and mechanised troops of Captain James Hook and the ever growing Cult of Cthulhu. Initially untameable, only Moreau’s daughter Belle, a gifted scientist and hunter in her own right, can exert any control over them. Unbeknownst to Belle, their leader is her long lost love, Vincent, believed to have been killed in the Martian attacks. Saved by her half crazed father and his flesh mechanics, he battles his animalistic rage whilst Moreau looks for a way to make him a man once more…

That is just wonderful, truly wonderful indeed! Love the fluff that rolls along with it all.
If you did any more Beastmen or "Beasts" it would be great to have a "ready to pounce" and "...I'm going to rip you another" pose.

Thanks guys-glad you like them! I was intending on making some of the actual B.E.A.S.Ts to go with them for the Hoard but ran out of time. If there's enough interest I will get a few 'troops' done and package them up with Belle, Victor, Hook and Pan (maybe see if I can do a bit of a re-color to make it worth printing them out again!) I must say I have become rather taken with my LOEG/Steampunk inspired figs, so will get the thinking cap on and see what else I can come up with!

First up, thanks for that squirmydad-I only just picked this up over a month later! Will definitely check that out! On to the June Hoard-I realise it was a power armour theme, but I am on a real horror kick at the moment, and have started exploring outside the zombie apocalypse! First in line is John, the Occult Investigator: I'm kinda digging the look of the spell casting, and have a bunch of ideas for other investigators and Cthuloid horrors for them to battle!

Hey all! For the July Hoard I went with something in keeping with the Demon theme, and decided to give John the Occult Investigator someone to face off against: Sissy, the Possessed Co-ed: My first design had her hovering in front of a giant maggot demon, but decided to go with something a bit more flamey. I have decided to collect my non-zombie figs under the banner of Survival Horror: Occult Terrors, which I think John and Sissy fit under nicely. Oh, I mounted Sissy on one of Jim's 40mm Octagon Lava Bases, and re-mounted John on Jim's 25mm Octagon Stone Bases with a little extra shading and a few spots of blood. I am going to set up a gallery thread, and they will be on there soon!

Hey sithcundman! I was planning on putting together a set a while back but got kinda sidetracked with the Horror Minis and work on my boardgame. Having said that, I want to flesh out the steampunk stuff when things calm down a little and I already have a re-color of some on the Hoard figs. I don't have a timescale, but stay tuned!
