Greek Mythology... maybe

Just messing around with some putty...

Usual story on these: “personal sculpts, for my own use, blah blah” but yes I'll probably make them available to purchase one day.

Initially these might be individual loose parts (heads, weapons, shields) which people can use to augment some of the amazing Ancient plastic miniatures out there.. Victrix are a personal favourite of mine.

Good chance I'll just make a lot of the mythological beasts and characters, along with conversion parts, and we can rely on the Hoplite/human heroes to come from other manufacturers. The Fauns will probably be my first target.




The horned head will be used as a fantasy Minoan/Cretan – lead by the Minotaur who has busted out the Labyrinth and usurped king Minos.

The front right head will be a black armoured Serpent Hoplite – lead by Medusa and the Gorgons.

Faun dollies:




WIP – Poseidon/Atlantean/Trident/Dagon/Mariner Hoplites

  1. I'd still love to one day do a more 'mythpunk' thing, so combine ancient greek myth/history with scifi/tech elements. Sort of like the old Ulysses 31 cartoon or Reign the Conqueror. One can dream!

    As for making the figures available, I might be working with a dude from the UK who has his own shop to cast and sell some of the ships I've been designing. Not sure how this will go, but could perhaps check that option for your stuff as well.

  2. As per usual the sculpts are looking exceedingly good, I'll probably be wanting to pick some of these up for use in 7th Voyage (which I have also yet to pick up).
