My Iron Kingdoms RPG group sometimes can’t hold back. When we saw that Borka: Vengeance of the Rimshaws was riding a polar bear… well, we had to figure out how that might work for us.

Luckily, we have a very good GM who is willing to make up some rules in the name of Awesome.

And then it fell to me to create some awesome minis featuring our heroes riding bears. I grabbed a couple bears from Scibor (they’re very large) and put a couple of Reaper Bones minis on them- then did a lot of sculpting.

Here are the results:

First off- the Gobber Man-at-Arms/Duelist/Horseman:





And our Trollkin Alchemist/Earth Sorcerer/Long Rider

Super cool man! I can't help but be reminded of the book The Golden Compass. Not a bad thing! Love it.

Awesome!

I love these! Thank you for sharing dude

I love how the second guy, both he and the bear have such cheery grins.

I'm not familiar with the rpg, but if it allows for ridin' bears, I'm all for it.

That's exceptional work.

I hope the guy responsible for getting th the gas mask on that bear gets paid a LOT!

Lol

They look great, as your usual.

Thanks all. I think the group has pretty much glossed over putting the bears in their barding and gas masks.

-Blade TX- I can see that, but I never read and/or watched The Golden Compass. Had a friend recommend the book, but didn't get around to it (no one recommended the film).

That is beautiful.

Great job, man! I can't wait for Unleashed, so I can do some conversions for those types of characters. Keep up the good work!

Sick looking models, awesome job.

They look fantastic.

Haha so cool bro. Very impressed.

You and me both. I've taken to creating trollkin character concepts in anticipation.
