Today I received my first batch of Nautican Characters and Sea Creatues

Phew ! I thought my miniatures had been lost in the post but they were clearly blessed by the sea gods because they turned up today. It just took a couple of days longer for the Nauticans to navigate their way over the Atlantic than I had suspected :)

I contacted the supplier with my concerns and they were very courteous and helpful which put my mind to rest and hey presto, as they promised, here they are !

I ordered:-

1) a Water Elemental,
2) a mermaid,
3) two "proxy" sirens (they're female spellcasters who look the part),
4) a Leviathan (Golgoroth),
5) a Wereshark (special character Zharc)
6) A character that fits the bill as The Coastal Hermit,
7) two Giant Giant crabs
8) a character with billowing cloak and a standard that will do nicely as a Chanty Singer.
9) a "ghostly summons" a miniature of two naked entwined females rising into the air. A great model to represent Vortex although I'll need to change description for the character and the name to Vortices most porbably.

I think that's about it. I'm on the train surrounded by "normal" looking people so I'm too embarrassed to open the box to take a look ! Yes, even at the age of 41 I still suffer from the geek complex ! :)

Anyway, hopefully the sun will stay out so I can take the miniatures outside for a swim in the garden bird bath when I get home - they need rehydrating ;-)

Only kidding, I'm taking them into the garden so I can get some decent photos in natural lighting.

All being well, you'll see a slideshow here with all the new minis on it very soon. I'll use a standard human or elf in the pics so you can get a feel for the size of these particular Nauticans.

Thanks for reading and sharing in my excitement folks,

Sigmar

  2. Hi John,

    I'll get a pick up tonight - when I get back from the liquor store ;)

    They're slightly smaller than I thought they'd be but I think they're big enough to justify their "giant" status :)
