November Preview: Legion Hollows
🕑 Added 2022-10-27 20:40:45 +0000 UTCEvening all!
A while back, I released a set of infantry, the Legion Hollows, and at the time, whilst I wasn't unhappy with them, I knew they weren't quite exactly what I'd envisioned for them. Sure, they looked vaguely like possessed warriors, but didn't really radiate the malformations of a Dæmon's possession.
Now, however, I'm starting to get closer to that vision: thralls, bound to the will of a force so great that they can't contain it. That a being of endless evil and timeless, unknowable agony is forced into a human body is too much for it to bear, and as its eldritch presence lingers, it distorts. Caught early, rituals might be able to excise the creature and spare its host before too much damage is done, but before long, any resemblance of humanity is defiled and distorted beyond recognition - a hollow host, enslaved to an ceaseless hunger.
Well, these guys will be coming out as a set of five models in November's release, I hope you're as excited as I am!

Beksinki has long been one of my favourite artists, alongside Denis Forkas - I'll take a look into Jaroslaw Jasnikowski in a couple of days though, that's the first I've heard of them, thank you :)

The manga Kiseiju - The Unwanted Guest (寄生 獣 - Parasite Beasts) could also help you as ideas. It is a manga written and drawn by Hitoshi Iwaaki from whom they have also drawn an anime series. Greetings Gianluca

They looks very cool. If you want to take inspiration to develop your idea of "demonic corruption" I recommend two painters that I like very much: Zdzisław Beksiński (the painter's visions of hell) and Jaroslaw Jasnikowski (who also has some interesting Steampunk paintings). Good vision Gianluca
