"Sapient Humanoid Frogs" - Frog Monsters

"Sapient Humanoid Frogs" - Frog Monsters - Part 3

By the power of Sadu-Hem...

Greetings, once again, to The Art of Caesura!

Aaaand we're back to frogs!

After taking a little break last week to honour a few important birthdays, we're closing out the Frog Monsters from Hellboy: The Board Game that I had started 5 years ago!

If you're interested in how these guys emerged, you can check out this post, or if you'd like to see the painting process, you will find it here.

Today we're looking at the finished product and, in my opinion, these are totally miniatures that benefit from been viewed as a big horde. Individually, the details are a bit soft, and lacking in some areas (not unlike my paint job for them), but seen altogether they do look quite horrifying - in a good way!

Ultimately, I'm glad that I didn't totally repaint them as I was about to do. I think their various skin tones, while somewhat subtle, do add some nice variety to the group.

I'm now going to treat myself to painting a small, very individual and detailed unit...but that is for another day.

See you next Friday on The Art of Caesura!

The Full Stop - Oathsworn: Into the Deepwood

The monstrous Deepwood has consumed the land. No farms or fields remain. There is only corruption, rot and the endless shadow of the twisted trees. ~ Shadowborne Games Pot's Peace, Oathsworn.

The Full Stop - A Deep Dive into Warhammer 40k Combat Patrol

Welcome to Combat Patrol! Whether you are a new recruit to Warhammer 40,000 or a seasoned veteran, Combat Patrol is all about getting your forces into action as quickly as possible. - Combat Patrol Rules - Games Workshop Welcome back to the Art of Caesura! Recent readers will see that we've been looking at our fun little Warhammer gathering, KillCon over the past few weeks. Two weeks ago I provided a narrative verion of my game of Combat Patrol of my Black Templars vs. Tristan's Tyranids where as l ast week I gave a more "gamer oriented" play-by-play of the game. Today I want to dive deeper into this accessible and engaging game-type. I want to argue that Combat Patrol is not just for beginners. Combat Patrol in 10th Edition is Games Workshop's new smallest scale Warhammer 40k game type. But unlike in previous editions, where it just meant that both sides took 500 point armies and went at it, in this edition, Games Workshop has changed things up a little

"The Skinny" - Scale 75 Flesh Paint Set Review

The complexion of a light-skinned face divides into three zones: The forehead has a light golden colour because it's freer of muscles and surface capillaries. The ears, cheeks and nose all lie within the central zone of the face. Those areas have more capillaries carrying oxygenated blood near the surface, causing the reddish colour... The zone from the nose to the chin (where there are relatively more veins carrying blue deoxygenated blood) tends toward a bluish, greenish or greyish colour. Some artists accentuated this subtle bluish or greenish hue to bring out the reddish lip colour. Color and Light (page 156) - James Gurney Welcome all to The Art of Caesura! So I finished all the models in Warhammer Quest Silver Tower!! Wooohooo!! Now for something a bit different! This week I'm going to do something I've never done on the blog before: write a review!!
