Oathmark Odyssey - Living Statue 2

 This is the second Living Statue, using a Crooked Dice Titan from their Argonaut range. It is also using the Melee Weapons.

The scars on the shield need painting.

The two Living Statues.

Oathmark Odyssey - Living Statue

The town was about a dozen small houses clustered around a square with a shiny bronze statue on a plinth in the middle.

We had been spotted, as we could see figures rushing around. The women and children were being directed to the most impressive building while the menfolk were collecting weapons and shields.

The men began forming ranks, but we could see we outnumbered them at least five times.

Behind the ranks, I could just make out some priest or similar making offers to the statue. As I turned to the soldier next to me to say this should be easy, there was a sound like a god's sword sliding over another god's shield and his eyes turned wide.

Looking back, the statue began to step down from the plinth, its sword and shield at the ready.

I wanted some more fantastical elements for the Oathmark Odyssey armies, and the inspiration of Ray Harryhausen is hard to avoid.

Crooked Dice have two different Titans for their Argonauts range with optional Melee Weapons.

This is the first one completed. He is moving forward, his shield before him and the iron blade of his sword ready to strike.

The figure was undercoated with Citadel Chaos Black spray. It was then painted with Vallejo Brass. The "skirt" was painted with Army Painter Chaos red. 

The shield centre was first painted with Army Painter Stone Golem, followed by Humbrol 34 Acrylic matt White. The scars on the shield were painted Vallejo Brass then Vallejo Gold. 

The body was then extensively dry brushed with Vallejo Gold followed by a lighter dry brush of a mix of Citadel Mithril Silver and vallejo Gold.

It still has to receive a design on the shield (probably an Owl from the Ancient Greeks sets).
