I figured it’s high time I followed up on the sheep I made for our Oldhammer game at Knavecon 2014. Here they are in all their painted glory:
And this was the original green for the little fellow.
And with a slightly more careful paint job, the final ones got a pretty flat, devoid of highlights and shading paint job in the end:
Here is a scale comparison with my favourite scaling model. As you can see they have been designed for the smaller people of miniature gaming (such as halflings), with an emphasis on cuteness over realism:
They may someday even be used as nasties in a killer sheep scenario….
The final part of this project will be to take 2 of the little blighters and re-sculpt the legs to look like they are being carried and then send them along to the next stage in the production line to Mr. Saturday who will proceed to incorporate them into a commemorative fimir raider model to mark the convention.
I liked them as greens and I like them painted. Perfect sheep for Halflings.
I’m going to enjoy making the sheep rustler.
These are wonderful! I want them!
Thank you. I will eventually get around to offering them for sale, once I tweak the design a little.
Really cool!
Thanks 🙂
These are so wonderfully whimsical. Exactly what I am looking for. I want two dozen. No. I need two dozen. Please tell me that you have them available for purchase. Thanks.
Yep, they are gorgeous. Also, fimir sheep thief!

Hi Richard, I sculpted those guys and created the mould for them, the problem with them is that the legs didn’t come out due to a design issue with venting the mould properly and so were pretty tedious to put together as I had to cast feet and attach to each one. I should really just modify the original a little bit and try to recast it in RTV silicon…..watch this space I guess.
