About the Project
The Others: 7 Sins is a miniatures-heavy big box boardgame written by Eric Lang, illustrated by Adrian Smith and published by Guillotine Games; kickstarted by CMON, with minis by Studio McVey. The theme is existential horror science fiction, avec tentacles. The setting is the last city of mankind in a dark cyberpunky future, beset on all sides by the demonic, corrupting forces of Sin. All that stands in defence of humanity are a handful of agents of an organization called F.A.I.T.H. And it is a loosing battle. This project is where I will collate my painted minis for this game and try to embarrass myself into actually getting them all done. I have way too many minis and tend to flutter about my collection, painting a little here and a little there as they take my fancy. Warning: I paint table-top quality, sometimes table-top +, sometimes just badly. Many of these minis look better when not magnified like in the photos. I maintain a blog where I post all my painted minis at www.themountainsofminis.com

Have some Pride!
Have some Pride!
The Avatar of Pride
Leonine and resplendant. Unashamed. All Out. Pride.
The largest of all the Avatars, the base is a pillshaped 65mm x 45mm.
The Abominations of Pride:
25mm integral bases.
The Abominations of Pride are a further exploration of Contrast paints. And as it so happens, they are slightly reminiscent of rainbow stripes when on parade. This is in fact unintentional but at the same time oddly fitting.
These were based in a light cream colour, and then each was given a single coat of a different contrast paint.
From the left: Creed Camo, Space Wolf Grey, Wildwood, Militarum Green, Plaguebearer Flesh, Darkoath Flesh.
I then tried to drybrush them a bit, but the contrast paint came off in patches, not being strong enough to resist the mechanical rubbing of the bristles. *sigh* and here I thought I was being extra gentle.
So this reinforces the earlier lesson of no drybrushing on contrast paints.
I put some carroburg crimson shade wash on the ends of the limbs and tentacles, and later some thinned Mephiston Red regular paint. Eyes in blue, some teeth, black bases with black flockmix and done.
All that Pride, and not a shred of Dignity.
These are the last of all my The Others: 7 Sins minis. Now their to-be-painted-box in the shelf is all empty and hollow, ready to be filled by someting shiny and new! Time to prep some more of the HATE minis perhaps?

Lust
Only two Sins left to go to finish off all of The Others: 7 Sins minis I own. Here is the first of the pair, Lust.
These are sexy beasts, are they not? I can feel how they inflame my ardor, how about you?
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, as the saying goes. Someone has made some rather …eccentric…design choices here with regards to the representation of the sin of “Lust”.
The Avatar of Lust
Is this not the epitomy of Lust?
Feel the raw power of full frontal titillation?
Does this image not cause you to experience Raging Horn or Ladyboner, whatever the case might be?
How about the side boob shot? Both classy and acceptable for TV audiences in the US as long as the nipples are not in view.
Or the infamous Black Widow twister shot, that gives the male gaze the satisfaction of simultaneous T and A?
Ooh, that junk in the trunk is just overwhelming!
Three heads to give. Does that not entice?
Yeah, Baby! Indeterminable fleshy lumps all over!
35mm integral base
So these are to be seen as the incarnation of carnal lust? I gather they are representing sex-crazed rapist demons rather than objects of desire… Yeah, that is some pretty effed-up existential horror, right there.
Abominations
There are two each of three different variants.
35mm and 40mm integral bases.
All in all, these are nice Nurglesque models and will sub for Daemon Princess and Plaguebearers.
The Daemon Princess is a bit small and the Plaguebearers are a bit large though.
These were finished August 12th 2020.

Heroes of Gamma Team
“The heroes we deserve, not the heroes we need”.
The actual Gamma Team, from the Gamma Team expansion.
Skye the Werewolf in her human form…
…and in her werewolf form. Green base rims since she is a Fixer. 25mm integral bases.
River. Also a Fixer. Ideally the coat should have been clear see-though, Priscilla-style, but I settled for a Trinity-style black latex since the plastic the model was cast in was opaque. 25mm integral base.
Eagle the Shooter and his hi-tech smoked glass helmet with internal HUD in his 80’s cold weather coat. 25mm integral base.
The Winter Soldier Keanu the Leader with his cybernetic arms. 30mm integral base on account of his manspreading.
Doc the Bruiser. Don’t call him a monkey! 35mm base.
That actually finishes off the Gamma Team Expansion.
As before, the photos really “enhance” all the little mistakes and imprecisions and make the paint jobs look rather crude even though they look perfectly fine in real life when not magnified.
Oh well. Neither my eyesight nor my shaking hands will be getting any better so it is what it is.

Corrupted Gangstas
The corrupted gangsta acolytes from the Gamma Team Expansion box, yo!

But yeah, but no, but yeah, but no, but yeah, but that’s so unfair!

Corrupted Diplomats
One thing I regretted about The Others: 7 Sins KS was that I did not get all the minis during the campaign. So when I found the Gamma Team expansion going for cheap on one of the discount stores on Ebay last year, I snapped it right up.
I have at last gotten round to painting the contents. Here is the first group of acolytes -the Corrupted Diplomats:
Old Hag Harkness, and Ms Umbridge
Thompson and Thompson
Old Creepy Gentleman in his silken smoking jacket, and Mr Hefner the even creepier.
One thing I really like about all the diverse Corrupted Acolytes is that when all are lumped together, they become a massive horde of cultist or zombie-style mooks from all walks of life.
Aren’t these minis actually a bit large for CMON?

Envy
The box full of the Others: 7 Sins models got a visit determined by the dice gods of the Shelf Game.
I picked the Envy Avatar and Abominations, leaving Pride and Lust and the Gamma Team expansion models for another day.
Three different failed paint schemes later, they ended up like this:
Another case of “just finish them already!” I found these to be a bit of a slog to do. At least they are out of the way now.
On the back of the percieved slog, I think I might revisit the shelf game concept; forcing myself to paint stuff I am not inspired to do is probably not the best idea I have had, especially since I recently have had so limited time to paint. When I find myself putting off painting in favor of doing something completely different, like replaying a game I already have put far too many hours into…maybe I should -at least for now- go more with the flow and try to find inspiration for any given model before sitting down to paint it. If it is not enjoyable to do, why do it at all? Also, the minis end up with uninspired, objectively bad paint jobs.
The Avatar of Envy:
This is one reason I am not a fan of preassembled minis: the entire front of this mini has a lot of visible detail beneath rows of teeth/horns/whatever those spiky bits are. My word, those were annoying to get any colour past, and I gave up trying to paint in the back teeth. Those front fangs were just so very much in the way!
The Avatar has a 45mm base. which for some reason the model is not centered on.
The Abominations of Envy:
40mm and 35mm bases.
All the 7 Sins in this game are weird and original, and dare I say it, Lovecraftien, takes on the seven sins. But? What on God’s green earth makes these things represent “Envy”? It boggles the mind. (Which might be the point come to think of it.)
Just to give a sense of scale here.
These minis were finished June 14th 2020.
Don't mess with Dr Dream
The last set of Acolytes! Doctors and nurses that want to “heal” you by making you grow tentacles…
For some reason, most of the pictures were a bit blurry, so they went in the bin. No point in posting them at any rate.

The Hobos of Corruption
I am slowly pushing towards the goal of finishing the rest of the minis from The Others: 7 SIns boardgame (“only” 3 sins avatars and their sets of 6 abominations each, plus two sets of acolytes left to do!) Did I say two sets of 6 acolytes left?
Hobos! When the Sins stalk the streets, it certainly isn’t safe to live there! These should prove that the Sins do not care about personal hygiene (or a lack thereof…) nor social status. They will corrupt everyone!
The eponymous Bag Lady. With a massive Bag.
Accordions are the Devil’s Instrument!
You can’t have a bunch of crazy hobos without some of them carrying Doomsday signs, now can you?
I like my Hobos avec tentacles.
After this there is 1 set of acolytes left to do.
