Last weekend I painted this Japanese monk for Ronin gaming. It's a 28mm-scale
Perry Miniature. He could be used as a harmless civilian traveling monk, but I am planning mostly to use the figure as a kind-hearted warrior monk who has thrown his weight behind the local peasants in resisting the dastardly
Yakuza gang. In rules terms I will tweak the Warrior Monk 'hired sword' profile to allow him to be armed only with a bo, & he would have Bojutsu & Acrobatic as Attributes, making him a skilled fighter with his innocuous staff, less hindered by difficult terrain, & even able to traverse terrain that is impassable to other figures!

Lovely work, man - He's got a great vibe to him!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Mordian, yeah I think he may be fun to play - vaulting onto roofs using his bo, or deftly leaping out of combat without risking a parting attack.
