Some miniature forces (Updated 28/07/19)
Posted: Thu Jan 10, 2013 12:18 am
In preparation for the upcoming Toronto Brikwar, I decided to round up some minifigs. I don't have nearly enough matching minifigs to create a decent-sized force, so instead I gathered some small forces I had lying around. I've been developing the first two for some time, and the second two are the results of me just doodling with my Lego.
Also, please forgive the blurry pictures. I've lost the charger for my camera, so I had to resort to my phone. At least it has a macro function on it.
Number 1:
Contains: 3 infantry with hero (aggressive sergeant cliché) and armoured soldier, 3 vehicle crew (pilots), buggy, motorcycle, armoured car.
Number 2:
Contains: 2 winged guys, 3 soldiers with hero (Death-worshipping scary-looking guy cliché), frenzied captive, haunter, siren, juggerknight, Bloodwing.
The story behind these guys is that they're religious militants who dress themselves in the image of death. They use machines to simulate supernatural effects, such as the giant suits of armour and the ability to fly. The deity they worship is named Bloodwing, and he's the equivalent of Death. their belief is that those unworthy of living must be killed to make way for new lives, and that a balance must be maintain in order to prevent an overflow of life energy.
They originally had guns and modern helmets, but I has to use them for the other force, so I just made them look ancient instead.
Wow, that is one godawful picture. Anyway, the captive is drugged with hallucinogens, armed, cuffed, and sent out to the enemy before everything else. The drugs amplify and distort the nightmarish look of the soldiers, and force him to run away from them. Once in enemy lines, his visions become to terrifying that he breaks and starts slashing away at everyone in a desperate attempt to be rid of the horrors surrounding him.
The haunter is a guy draped in white cloth, with a smoke machine hidden underneath to both hinder the enemy's view, and up the intimidation factor even further. They're often sent running after the captive to herd him in the right direction, and fuel his fear.
The siren is a woman wearing the mask of a dead, but beautiful woman. She uses her charms to seduce individual soldiers away from the force, only to brutally kill them with her cleaver once out of sight.
The dreadknight is armed with a repeating bow and a claw. It originally had a minigun instead, but I replaced it with the bow to go along with the ancient look.
Number 3:
Just some farmers. Lead by farmer Abraham Church and his daughter, Prudence. They're joined by three other farmers, their trusty John Deere tractor, and Dale. Dale's just a goddamn idiot.
Number 4:
Another terrible photo. These two are just some messed up leather-and-chain wearing S&M siblings, who have made a habit of making people their slaves and sending them to kill. The brother infects people with his injector gun, and the sister stands over them, cracking her whip. They're known to have some really nasty, kinky victory celebrations. Yeah, I went there.
This is what happens when they get a hold of soldiers.

Hope you like them. I'll be putting some stats up soon. I know I've said that <a href='http://tinyurl.com/y42zurt'>alot</a>, I actually need them this time, so I'll put them up once I make them.
