OneLittleThunder Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 I'm looking for the right figures to use as proxies for an Obsidian Oni or two, but I still haven't found anything that's just right. These Dark Age figures are about the best fit I've found so far; they look sort of rocky/crystalline, and have clubs, so that's reasonably close. The CP Stone Trolls at the top of this page would also work reasonably well, as would the Bakemono that's third on this page. Anyone got any good suggestions?

solkan Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 Looking at the concept art, I think a Lower Abyssal from Flames of War comes close on the basic body design, but not the head shape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaguRagla Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 I'd probably go for some Warhammer beastmen in armor. I think they're pretty close except for the horns and axes. But that could easily be dealt with and with the right paint job, I guess these could do it http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2853/11678379526_aaa9c0f74e_b.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voodoo Specter Posted February 29, 2016 Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 I would probably use skorne ancestral guardian https://privateerpress.com/hordes/gallery/skorne/solos/ancestral-guardian or Immortals https://privateerpress.com/hordes/gallery/skorne/privateer-exclusives/immortals-unit from Privateer Press Hordes 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SinJ Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 I went with Bushido's Kano and intend on painting a chipped rock effect on his skin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomjoad Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 I thought you guys were crazy for recommending all these Bushido minis as proxies for the oni. "All the Bushido guys are so big!" I thought. "All on 40mm bases!" So, just color me shocked when, about a year after the Shifting Loyalties beta opened up, I finally read the dang card and found out how big a base the Obsidian Oni happens to come on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would have been a good thing for me to have done before I based mine. Sigh...excuse me...I need to go fix some things. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
