Kat Shortcloak Mercenery Fighter

Finally got around to picking up Petril's lady wife in the summer but only recently got around to painting her up.

Kat Shortcloak is the wife of Petril a pair of fighters in the Fist's of Iron adventuring company. While her husband Petril gets up close and personal with his halberd. Kat hangs back bringing down enemies with her trusty crossbow. Kats not adverse to a bit of hand to hand and is quite deft with a shortsword Kat's rucksack is made from the skin from an unusual fat goblin that tried to sneak up behind her exploring a cave once. The Goblins green hue which is an unusual colour for a goblin skin inspired her to have him skinned, cured and turned into a bag that serves to remind her to always watch her back.

Nice characterful sculpt lots of little details but not to many. Quite like the studded leather armour and gauntlets. Layered armour. Backpack (it comes in greenskin). The female Gnome fighter comes in 3 pieces crossbow, body and backpack.
