Title: Zoontalis - a different anthropomorphic rules set.
Post by: Duke Speedy of Leighton on 06 February 2024, 10:52:49 PM
Recently, my friend David introduced myself and my daughter to Zoontalis. It's a fast play, four creature aside combat game. The rules are great, but the sculpts they produce are even better.
This is my first 'Guild' - The Rat Bags (an insult used in jest in my family when someone does something comically bad).
I also have the starter sets of Rabbits, Foxes and Platypusses to paint up, plus Rach has tortoises she wants to paint.

Each guild comes with a mage, a ranger, a thief and a warrior.

My 11 year-old, Rach, has painted her first warband. Tortoises.

I only offered technical adice, sculpted the bases and tidied up a couple of patches after.

All colour choices were her own

She has done an amazing job!

Rach has indeed done an amazing job :-bd

I particularly like the flame effect and book of spells for what I assume is the mage

Rach has finished her next guild - Pandamonium!
(https://i.imgur.com/IWyYwC7.jpeg)

All I did was add basing and tidy up after her.

Her choice of colours ties in nicely

These are going to be hard!

They go really well

Nicely done, the pair of you.

Have to say those are nice looking sculpts, too.

Rachel, very good use of a limited colour pallet

Easter holidaqy activity, Rach painted her Axolotls
(https://i.imgur.com/MZMcWie.jpeg)

I sculpted the bases for her (she wanted a water theme), applied inks before she highlighted and did the details on the eyes, the rest is entirely her work.

Look, salmon rose!
(https://i.imgur.com/77061id.jpeg)

They are very much her favourite (this week) and gave my Platupuses a kicking on Thursday!

Meanwhile, I finished my guild of foxes

Nice work. Salmon Rose is the trendy colour amongst those who know.

The only thing that bothers me is that I think of axylotyls as being peaceful, serene creatures.  :-\
