My Quar!

[maccioniath]

Greetings all! Been lurking for a while but decided to register and share some of my Quar miniatures from Zombiesmith. Most of them are from the Partisan line. Only the last of the bunch is a conversion, the rest may have a few weapon swaps but no sculpting involved.

welcome, have fun and post more pics

these are unusual... but they look good as a warband

[Pandadosmares]

Hello, nice mole warband

[arctica]

cool not seen these before and they look great together and on the battlefield. Do you game with them much then?

[mahon]

haha, Arctica, the victim of huge-label mainstream miniatures

I knew of Quar and really liked the miniatures. Even considered buying a bunch for me.
I assume you use them for gaming (judging by the scenery in the background). What game? I heard of a few featuring the quar.

These look pretty fine as gaming minis, but one or two extra highlights surely wouldn't be a bad addition... unless time is your priority.

Hi gents, thanks for the comments.

Unfortunately, no, I don't get to play much, but I like to be prepared just in case the opportunity ever comes up
Since Songs of Our Ancestors came out - the Zombiesmith skirmish game released for the Quar specifically - I've ramped things up a bit to get enough Crusaders, Royalists, and Partisans ready. The guys in the pictures are all Partisans. There's also This Quar's War, a larger scale game, but I don't have enough minis done to try that one yet. Both books are great though - lots of art and great stories, and the rules are nice and succinct.
As far as the painting itself goes, I know I'm no great shakes but I try to distract from my terrible highlights with the bases and the promise to myself that, one day, I'll come back and finish them properly.

Well done!
These minis are so rarely met it's just great to know people paint them

I haven't read the SoOA. How does it compare to other Ganesha Games stuff if you know it?
And just as Demi said, it's good to see them painted. It's such a rare sight...

[maccioniath]

Honestly, I haven't played any of the other Ganesha games. From what I understand though, the Quar rules are based off most of the same mechanics as the Ganesha games. I haven't even played SOA yet, for lack of an opponent. I'm finishing up a Crusader army to counter my Partisans, and hope to eventually add a few Royalists as well, just so all the sides are properly represented. I have to say, the Quar are my favorite minis, no matter which side. They paint up quickly and are very unique, and I like the way they look in general. I only wish I could paint better so I could really do them justice.

thanks for the information. looking forward to seeing more of your quar
