From the workbench of the esteemed Horati0nosebl0wer

Another army idea popped into my head over the course of checking the list of models I have in my library. I’ve decided that just like my physical models I am going to put use to the figures I have in the cloud. This also comes after cleaning my room, putting up my copy of the Legend of the Five Rings novel “Night Parade of 100 Demons” and seeing amazing ai video of yokai (Japanese monsters).

This compulsive army building and getting it out of my system into the project system really is a boon to my wallet. I’m not continuing to just shell out cash at every instant I feel inspired. It also helps that I can push these ideas onto others that might build and paint. I still have the desire to see the final product in person but I don’t need to be the one creating it.

Print using Titanforge minis 

4 komainu rider (Hearthguard)

8 samurai w/ naginata (warrior)

8 samurai w/ katana (warrior)

24 ashigaru w/ yari (levy)

1 warlord on kirin (mount)

1 huge dragon

Additions/optional unit builds:

8 Shinobi or samurai kitsune (warrior)

1 kitsune sorcerer

Wanyudo (a flaming wheel demon)

2 tengu (beasts)

2 oni w/ tetsubo (beasts)

8 jorogumo arachno-cav warriors (kitbash)- this part of the army would be a split between the Wargames Atlantic spider kit and getting some geisha printed from the waist up. What kimono that would feature on the spider-ladies would be sculpted with green stuff. Carried items such as shamisen/other instruments or weapons would need to be part of the print and might be an issue to sculpt around. The Parabellum sculpts of jorogumo are a possibility as a monster as their bases is so large and would only work as a single figure.

The Genya No Yokai from Parabellum is great to use as a buy-and-build plastic kit since it would be a fitting giant. The visual aesthetic fits in using the same horror element from the Onimusha series of games.
