Just been playing around with some of the newer models available in Heroforge and thought I’d do a couple of contrasting pictures – and when it comes to mounts for heroes there’s no greater contrast than between a Nightmare and a Unicorn. The former in fantasy games is usually depicted as a horse from the infernal realms, with flames instead of mane and tail. Unicorns are usually depicted as visions of serenity, pale and calm.

They’re interesting models – I really hope that some more poses become available, but I’m also aware that these are also designed to be printable so there are limitations on size. I shall no doubt have great fun trying some odd and counter-intuitive colour schemes in due course – like swapping the schemes on these two models. It’s also fun to see what they look like with previously generated models mounted on them…
