    Default Easter Egg Menites: Harbinger and Amon

    More models completed by my daughter.

    Next up: basing min squad of Deliverers.
    On deck: new Vanquisher plastic kit.
    Soon after: new Crusader plastic kit.

    Harbinger. I've had this modded for a long time and intended to paint it up in a studio scheme. I wanted the Harbinger walking on the ground and to get that "she shouldn't touch the ground thing" going, I sculpted flames where her footsteps would have been.

    However, after getting back into the hobby last summer, I decided to let my kiddo paint the Harbinger up in the style of the rest of my Menoth, and now here she is:







    And now for Amon. Apparently she was in a mono-color sort of mood with him, but I think the red suits him.

    the red is kinda apt... afterall, that ball and chain is going to be pretty brutal once he starts whirlwinding :P

    I kid you not, I'd run that Harbinger with my (non-easter egg blue) Menoth. She looks great, and the repose is awesome sauce.

    I love the flaming footsteps on Harby. This is also one of the coolest Menoth armies out there.

    My thoughts exactly! She asked me about his weapon and what it does, and I told her it punches people in the face ... hard. She found it amusing.

    Me too! And the kiddo is happy I'm playing with it again. I actually played last weekend for the first time since 2006. Had a great time.

    Thanks man. I had a great time with the modding and think it suits her. Gives a very kickass sorta strut.

    Yeah, the flaming footsteps really worked with my vision of the Harbinger. I'm not a huge fan of the floating version.

    And thanks, I think it is one of the of the coolest as well.

    To be honest when I first saw them my knee jerk reaction was like why would you treat your minis like that but then i realized my 3 year old loves the models he painted for daddy, so I took another look and i really have to say that Harbinger really looks good, and the Amon is awesome you almost want to put him on a pile of bodies ...

    Make sure you check the rest of my Easter Egg Menites out in my signature. Most were painted when she was 3-turning-4 and we started again recently when she was 6-turning-7.

    She makes me think of a living statue, I like!

    The Harbinger mod disturbs me on a very fundamental Menite level. It is a nice mod though.

    I am continually amazed at how something so simple can look so incredible.

    My painted models (The studio is for music.)

    You need to think outside the Book of Law, my friend.

    Much appreciated. I love breaking these guys out when there are new players around. They always get so much attention.
