Real flamer, My Horror, And "Flamer"

McCool. Nice work.

I think you should use them as upgraded horrors with Bolt , instrument or use the skull as a chaos icon.

It would be too confusing to use as a flamer when your horrors look so similar imo.

Hope that makes sense???

Nice model though!!!!!

What is the lower half of the body made out of?

@alex, hmm yes i see your point, but i alread yhave something that shows one of my horrors have bolt, i use the actual horror to show it has bolt. and i dont run icons sadly.:/

@jhall MageKnight metal, the living elemental, the plastic version of the living elemental is less detailed.

I might try to sculpt some fire in their hands or something similar to make it look a little more Flamer-ish.

It looks good and deffinantly unique, but as mattlov said, a little flame wouldn't hurt.

Yup, flaming branch ends would be suitably chaotic - you could probably make the flames from spare branch bits?

that looks awsome, the kind of rigid strong sculpt that represents the power they can throw out.

Another vote for some fire modeled into them. Paint looks good though, Keep it up

If you blended the branches purple - red - orange - yellow it would look like some sort of burning/hot appendage which would firmly delineate the flamer dryad from the horror.

Those are very cool. They look like they were molded that way.

thanks for the suggestion guys, but can someone point me into an article (cant find one here, or probably missed it) about sculpting flames into minis?

This one moves a bit slowly but is pretty good!

There was another one with a guy with long fingernails smoking that was pretty good if i
remember correctly but I couldn't find it. Should be there if you search about a bit!
