Dark Souls - The Board Game
Asylum Demon Expansion
The Asylum Demon is the first boss encountered in the Dark Souls video games series and so it seemed fitting that it would be the first Mega Boss Expansion added to my collection. These expansions represent the toughest encounters available in the board game, featuring massive boss models with their own unique gaming tile and behaviour decks.
The Asylum Demons chamber contains pillars which initially seem like a useful place to hide. However the unique mechanic of this battle has the demon destroying any pillar that falls within its attack arch, wrecking havoc on nearby heroes! The set contains card tokens representing the pillars, but I wanted something physical, so I 3D modelled and printed my own, to add a little gravitas to the arena!
This model is even larger than the Smelter Demon, so I painted the bulk of it with my airbrush, using Vallejo paints over my tried and trusted Khaki primer.
I used Wyldwood Contrast for the Demons Hammer, thinned but applied directly over the primer. As ever Agrax was used to add shading before a little dry brushing here and there brought the texture back.
