I picked up
Runebound recently- here are the heroes from the base game.

| Runebound heroes |
Runebound is a fantasy adventure boardgame, where your character rushes about a gorgeous map, skills up and gets better equipment, before fighting a big bad monster at the end. You're trying to do it before your opponents, so there's no time to take things slow. There's a fun combat system where you're flipping tokens rather than rolling dice.
I painted up the heroes, spending a bit more time on them than was probably warranted, but they're a good palate cleanser. I followed the character art for colour choices.
I was pleased with the blue tone on Lord Hawthorne's sword.

Master Thorn has a headache and a chilli on a stick.

Corbin is an angry dwarf (tautology?), who is the only character who can attack other players directly.

Elder Mok is a wandering ork shaman with a drum on his back.

I like the autumnal tones and wild hair of Laurel of Bloodwood.

Lyssa is a cat-person, and I used more sandy tones for her skin.
