Scylla-Sailors Doom

 

Be she in the form of a beautiful woman, horrible monster or something in between, Scylla is always deadly to those who cross her path. 

Countless sailors have fallen prey to her as they try to avoid the maw her neighboring sea monster Charybdis. (see World Historyprof: Charybdis-Ships Doom for her description)

These two horrors prey on those foolish enough to sail the tight straights that they haunt. Forcing the sailors to choose their fate- swallowed whole (ship and all) or fall into the embrace of Scylla and be devoured by the fangs of the heartless creature.

Who created her is lost to the past-even to her, as she only knows that her insatiable taste for human flesh is her role in life.  Few who sail her waters escape this doom, but it is possible, Odyssus did.

Scylla is a large plastic piece from the Greek Mystic Battles that I pained in September.

Prince of the Centuars

Princeps Equus Bellator Magister of the Reatia Clan in his full war regalia is a splendid example of centaur royalty.

Leading his troops into battle is his most important duty as the Prince Royal,

Unlike many of his clan, Princeps Equus Bellator Magister prefers using two swords vs spear or bow in combat.

His special attack is the deadly "Scissors Slice" that he uses to literally disarm his opponents or outright decapitate them.

Princeps Equus Bellator Magister is a plastic piece I painted over the summer.
