A thing a week 2025, week 33

Moving right along, we have more House Goritsi figs from Wrath of Kings, this time half of the Gotha Knights box (next half coming soon). Like last week's specialists, these guys are also really big and because of the hard plastic used in these and their very spikey fantasy weapons, they were also really pokey which made them harder to paint.

I thought the first two were the same guy but they're actually different poses. The last two seem pretty distinct, I guess the cloak guy being an officer or something with his very weird fantasy weapon. I don't hate these sculpts and I get that games want to have a distinct visual style but at the same time I long for a more realistic portrayal of these obviously fantasy characters.

These are painted as dark grey wolves which I thought fit the subjects well. In retrospect, I should have done black wolves as a point of practice for painting black furred characters. I'd really wanted to do these as a batch paint but a) they're really pokey, b) they're really big and didn't fit on my normal paint handles, and c) they're super detailed. I did an OK paint job but got to the end and really just wanted to be done.  I don't expect they'll see game time but I've been pretty bad at predicting these things but I'm glad they're done either way.
