@@TheGallantGoblin don't mention it my friend, I'm hoping in the next month or so we could possibly do that pledge challenge I wrote to you and Grady about, with both of your blessing of course!
I actually mixed the Animal Adventures starter set with The Temple of the Snake God box. It was an actual fun and exciting game night at home with the wife n kids.
Any time I see a giant snake mini I think of the first Conan movie......... Oh yeah I forgot you and Grady still haven't watched that have you? I'm constantly delighted with what this company keeps doing, really awesome sets
Hey, I'm an old gamer (3.5 all the way back to the basic times) and was wondering what races you like to play? The races I liked to play were half elf, half ork, drow, lizard men, kobold, and draconian (when I could get away with it).
Sweet! I don't get to play often as a player, but lately I've chosen dwarves, goblins, gnomes, and leshy! Basically the races that like to have a good time! -Theo
@@TheGallantGoblin awesome, thank you! I now have this and the Goblin Tsar with Spider on order after getting the Dragon and Kobolds and being real happy with that. Looking forward to that two headed T-Rex and it's warband! Was that an Aarakocra or Kenku they just shared? Either way looks great. Thanks for doing these, been very helpful. Such a great value compared to WotC D&D brand of comparable size.
Looks awesome! I just got done with some swamp trolls recently where I used citadel plague bearer flesh contrast paint I think it would look great on something like this as well after doing a zenithal prime job. What did you use for yours? I'm always interested in green color schemes as I paint a lot of goblins and trolls!
@@josephskiles I use cheap art acrylics (in the metal toothpaste tubes). I do a dark basecoat to fill in the crevices and then layer (like drybrushing but heavier and wetter) then drybrush the detail peaks. The cheap paint did good on the green but was too lumpy on the cream underbelly and it got streaky an I had to do too many layers and lost some detail.
@@1dunnj nothing wrong with craft paint, I have done 100's of models with stuff I get at hobby lobby ( even some extremely expensive games workshop models), while I have to admit the high dollar paints are better it will never stop me from using craft paints as well.
International shipping costs are going up tremendously. So we’re going to see prices go up across the board. This one is actually priced a bit less than some of the previous bosses. But yeah, don’t be surprised if we start seeing more price hikes. -Theo

This along with the yuan-ti would work for sinister secret of salt marsh with a bit of creative use of the figs.
A well invested painter can really make that mini amazing

Giant Evil Snake God? Dendar comes to mind. #AllHailDendar
I love that they snuck in some Indiana Jones references onto the base

Great shirt!
Makes me think of Zehir, the snake god in the neverwinter nights 2 expansion.

Seems the big bosses are getting smaller but the series is either staying the same price of climbing slowly.
