April is going to be a very special month for us, as not only are we attending Salute 2012 down in London, we’re also releasing two incredible BaneBeasts – Typhaggahw, Gwyfern of Ceredigion and Shaaroc, Reviled Draackox! It’s Typhaggahw we turn our attention to first, a little earlier than usual but that’s simply because we couldn’t wait to unveil him a moment longer.
Typhaggahw (pronounced “Tuh-***-a-hoo”), as many of you have already guessed from our sneak peeks, is a wyvern – what the Brythons call a gwyfern (pronounced “gwuh-vern”) from the region known as Ceredigion (pronounced “Keh-reh-dig-ee-on”). Those pronunciations are for everybody but the Welsh, by the way, as Typhaggahw is most decidedly a Brythonic beast!
Realised in artwork form by a newcomer to our range but much more renowned in the wargaming world, Des Hanley, Typhaggahw has been a joy from start to not-quite-finished; Des’ work is simply superb and Roberto Chaudon’s sculpt is absolutely breathtaking and very large indeed – just check out that scale shot and see how small Guillaume le Pèlerin is next to him! Typhaggahw is an outstanding addition to our already outstanding range of large beasties, and Raffaele Picca’s paintjob, we know, will also be fantastic… when he paints him, that is, as he’s busy on Creoda and a yet-to-be-released BaneLord.
