Kingdom Death: the Energy Potion Maker
38Well hot dog... you guys actually popped the 3000 subscriber balloon. I can't believe it! As promised, plans have already been set in motion for a giveaway coming soon. Keep your eyes peeled on the channel. In the meantime, with another sacred backer update on the Kingdom Death kickstarter, y'all know where we're headed now...
Better prepared than most of the helicopter parents I deal with on the first day of school, the Energy Potion Maker is a bit of an anomoly for Kingdom Death. She's fully clothed, isn't carrying anime- sized weaponry, and doesn't have a super disturbing back story attached to her. What are the odds?
For those reasons alone, I wanted to get my hands on this model. I missed the original first run due to being somewhere with my family (a Kingdom Death tradition, missing out on models while vacationing), but having been stuck at home for months on end at least I got the encore edition.
The first thing that struck me with this model was the brightness of her art card. Lots of color, lots of detail, barely any skin showing. Certainly a bit of a KD departure!
Parts are quite delicate, what with all the little vials and potions. I managed to snap off and lose the strand of hair attached to her head. Ah well, not a huge loss. You'll need to attach the arms prior to the potions and head parts though, as I don't see it going together correctly otherwise.
I've got to say this is a fun looking support model. It'll be a challenge to paint, but when are these models not? Hopefully we'll see her cycled through the store again for people that still want one....
...not that we've seen encores for the Strider Princess, Priest, Investment Sniper, or Valkyrie yet, but it's not like I'm keeping score of anything....
