Adventures in the underworld

As mentioned in my last post I am planning on having a string of games using the Godsworn Hunt.

I need to do some more work on the metals and an extra fine highlight on the hair and skin but they are getting there and I got some compliments on the scheme at the event. I had played the Mollog match up just once in t...
