Pagan Beastmen Army

Good old beastmen. Pagan niceness all round. Been invited to play a bit of Age of Sigmar, so did a quick fortnight project and knocked out a children of Pan army.

Intentionally steered away from a CHAOS look for these and went for more woodsy, natural, sort of feel - other than the Bestigors, in their armour - with the concept that these are woodland bound, nature worshipping types, following The Old Ways.

All rather enjoyable really and yet another long term want that I've been able to tick off the list.





Tzaangors



Bestigors


Gors



Spawn



Characters - more on those later


Ungors





The army standard.



On to the characters. My two main ones for this were something I'd wanted to try for a while. 

Firstly, The Beast That Walks. Made from all sorts of odds and ends, combined into a gangly awkward look, but dangerous animal. Its been a long time since I sawed up some metal models, but needs must and inspiration demands!





The Shaman - straight up GW model with no conversion. Painted fairly simply, but then draped in vines, ivy and foliage to give a naturalistic, earthbound, look to the model. Very happy with this one.

  1. Fantastic fortnight army! Lovely earthy finish and a great pair of characters, I particularly like the kit bashed one and the foliage is excellent!

    1. Thanks Iain. Was really happy with them coming out well in such a short space of time. The foliage was a bit of an experiment, but seems to have worked well.

  2. Really fantastic. Although I only collected Empire I did have a thought to build a Beastmen army (I loved their plastic kits) just as you did yours: less focus on Chaos, more on wild beasts.
