Painted Jussika Bloodtongue

This is Jussika Bloodtongue, another Blighted Trollkin for my Cryx army in Warmachine. She is a command attachment for a Blight Trollkin unit, which currently means either Bloodgorgers or Marauders (about whom more later); this makes her quite unusual as most command attachments are linked to one specific unit type. I actually like that she has a clear use with either unit, giving them the Vengeance ability which allows them a free move and attack if one of them died the previous turn; indeed I don’t know which would be the better option. My main trouble is playing Bloodtongue far enough forward that she’s relevant but not so far forward that she just gets shot immediately without achieving anything.

I picked yellow for Bloodtongue’s clothing as it makes her stand out nicely and doesn’t overlap with any of the other Blighted Trollkin I’ve painted so it’s clear that she isn’t just a regular unit member. She painted up very nicely; everything just felt clean and easy and I don’t think I’ve had such a quick job getting a miniature from undercoated to finished in a long time.
