Ok! I hope everyone is doing great, I'm doing pretty well myself. Been pretty busy with school and some other stuff but I have also been making time for hobbying of course. Yesterday was also my 10 year anniversary with my wonderful partner Jess, so that was a great day (minus the Exams we both had haha)! Today is a wonderful snowy April day and I am just relaxing taking it all in, going to make myself a nice hot chocolate in a bit I think!
but first.... lets get down to business... to defeat... the Huns...
err... or something!
Here are some fun Hathorian and BoC updates to go with that Dragon Ogor Shaggoth I shared earlier! To be fair, I have done
some painting but I have largely been building and trying to make it so I have less to build lol I have also been doing some reading and writing too.
First up: Hathorian / Lumineth Mobile Ballista on Mountain Bear.

As many of you know I have wanted to do something like this for a long time now and had an original design, admittedly much bigger. With the release of the lumineth ballista however, I am able to rethink how to make it, as seen below. Originally I had a HUGE ballista carried by two bears, the ballista itself was made of the jaws shown here and two Thundertusk tusks and a few other things. With this new design not only can it be on a smaller base (woot!) but also I think has the true vision of what I wanted, a fast-moving artillery piece, not another lumbering war machine.
I definitely have some updates to do on it such as adding fur/pelts to the base on which the current lumienth is standing, this will help cover up the base and make it more natural-looking. I am also planning to add more lumineth bits to bring it more in line with the Lumineth/Hathorian look. I am also considering swapping out on or both Lumienth for Gors made to look like Hathorians. This is also the first unit to highlight another aspect of the Hathorians and not the usual large hulking males you see, yes I am speaking of the female half of the race - the more agile and such half. I apologize also, but there will be no tiddies, just lots of hair all around!
I'm really excited about this artillery piece, though it doesn't make me want to stop making a catapult that I had the plans for in my head haha!
Any C& C is welcome!
Speaking of the female half of the Hathorian race....another Real big conversion/kitbash I have been working on is a Hathorian Priestess/BoC Shaman! The idea for a priestess has been in my head since I originally began developing the Hathorians, just wasn't 100% sure how to do it. I had a plan to use a BoC shaman and a head from the Lord Regent mount, but somehow I lost that bit (still looking for it) and the project was put on hold. Fast forward to now and I have basically a dream model. Using a left over stoneguard bit, cygor crystals, teclis bits, a spare warden torso and I crafted a fur cloak. Just a lot of fun to bring the homebrew to life.

there will be more homebrew lore for both of these on the Hathorian page I think is the plan once I get it fleshed out.
Another post coming after this!
C&C always welcome
