Apropos of nothing🤔, here’s a parable from legendary game designer Greg Stafford:
Back in 1966, Greg first started creating #Glorantha, future setting of the #RuneQuest TTRPG. He began by describing the west coast of the northern continent.

Back in 1966, Greg first started creating #Glorantha, future setting of the #RuneQuest TTRPG. He began by describing the west coast of the northern continent.

In this new instalment of 'Journey to Jonstown' we look at THE GOD SKIN & MAD PRAX, the fourth and final volume in Jon Webb's bestselling 'Sandheart' series of RuneQuest adventures set in Sun County @DriveThruRPG

- right, 'ere we go, big thread part two, being most of the rest of my sculpts-for-@FenrisGames - I'm in no doubt at all that I'll miss a few on my little gather-up, but at least that'll cut down on my carrying on so long this time... well hopefully, for your sakes! :p
Anyway, first up in the next-up, here's Ted Knuckles the half-giant. Not sure who the paintwork belongs to again though guessing at it being another one from @northleedspaul?
...and one of his slightly smaller cousins, a spear-wielding ogre, 'showcasing' my own far lesser (and much less frequently-used) painting skills (so to speak); the which are similarly evident on my old werewolf 'Ollie'...
