Silver Bayonet bestiary

Parallel with painting my French warband I started work on the bestiary, the human and non-human foes you may end up fighting. We'll start with a totally normal soldier in napoleonic garb, there's nothing fishy about this guy at all, is there?


Oh no, it's a vampire!


This vampire is made from a German WWII body and arms, hands from some Mantic ghouls, backpack from napoleonic French, and the head of Zacharias the Everliving. You might think this is sacrilege, but he was lying literally armless in my bits box, and without his dragon, so I didn't really have a better use for him.

Next we have a black dog, a 3D print from Greenstuff World. I'm a bit worried about how fragile the resin is, but 10 dogs were cheaper than buying most metal single dogs, so...


Here are some bandits I cobbled together from plastic I had. First we have four Russian WWII bodies, three of them with medieval phrygian caps (which were in vogue in revolutionary France), and one head from a British Zulu War guy. They guy to the left is a TYW guy. Most of them have muskets from a box of ACW zouaves.


The last four bandits are three Prussian landwehr from the old Warlord set, and one Gripping Beast Dark Age warrior with a new musket.





Last we have a cute doggo I got free in an order of 3D printed stuff. Might get a use?
