Aeon Trespass: Odyssey (ATO) by Lawnor

During the dark days of Covid shipping prices skyrocketed.  ITU decided to not pass those costs on to their backers and honour the original shipping costs.  They gave us a way to help them with those costs though by releasing the Godforms Box.  14 new models that were never planned for release, as far as we knew.  The Price Per Model was really good.  I suspect they were sculpts they’d toyed with before that they rushed to completion in the most cost effective way to maximise profit.  Now I’ve got the models I can see parts of other titans in these designs, so I assume some heavy copy and pasting has occurred.  I also think the final result isn’t up to their usual standard.  That’s fine.  They almost never get to see the table, and I can understand the choices involved in their production.  I’m a little disappointed, but I get it.  they’re fine enough.

So what are Godforms?  They’re not the gods.  They’re all dead.  When a Titan is stressed enough (usually when they’re about to die) there is an outside chance (10%) that they’ll go Super Saiyan and channel the essence of a dead god, and kick names and take butt.  This is why some of these Godforms may be a different gender or body type to what you might expect for their deity.  Mind you, Zeus would transform in to different animals to seduce women, so who’s to say how tied any god was to a particular form anyway?

With that said, you’re here for pretty pics and paint recipes.  So here we go.    I painted everyone as one big project, and tried to paint similar colours on different models at the same time.  It speeds things up a bit.  Fist up is Aphrodite, as played by Jack Black who is feeling just fabulous!
