  1. Alongside Lilith and her starting crew, I’ve also been “growing” a Mature Nephilim….

    As with the other figures, I’m experimenting with grafting more “Neverbirth” onto the creature’s (relatively) human-looking aspects. In this case, I’m focusing most of my efforts on the creature’s wings. (This approach was inspired by a recent game in which the creature’s Wind Buffet cleared a small mob of opponents off of a scheme marker. Those can be very powerful wings!) I love the general shape and architecture of the wings as they looked on the sprue. But they're so clean, so smooth, so plain. I wanted something wilder and wyrder.

    So I went to work. First tentatively....

    Well, once you start this sort of thing, you kind of have to keep going...

    Until I found myself with something like this:

    I had some trouble with the area around the head. I wanted to create an effect vaguely suggesting a mane of some sort. After several trials and errors, I came up with this:

    He needs cleaning up here and there, and some finishing touches, but that's the general idea.

    Frankly if I had this project to do again, I’d do things a little differently, and try to make my work a little cleaner. But it’s time to prime this guy and get him to the painting table. Maybe in a few months I’ll try another take.

    Thanks for looking. Let me know what you think.
