'Myth' from JamieM - 'Genie & Mermaid'


When I saw this round, I knew there were two miniatures that I had to enter for it. Why two? Well, I immediately thought of two miniatures I bought about 7 years ago when my group was playing pirate games. One was rescued from an "everything £1" bucket at a show and appears to be a Genie by Grenadier in 1985 and I thought he'd make a smashing water elemental. The other is a fun little mermaid from Black Cat Bases.



I've based them in the water, with the water roiling frantically underneath the elemental. I figure the jewellery he has is from sunken ships..... Perhaps ones he had a hand in sinking.

Thank you to the Challenge for nudging me to get these two done!

  1. I like how you did the water, and I always love reading about people salvaging unloved figures!

  2. Great job on those water effects. The presence of the waves and the depth of colour you achieved are excellent.
