Sleestak-Inspired Miniatures for Wars of Ozz

Back in the mid-1970’s, there was the live-action show “Land of the Lost“. It was a Sid and Marty Krofft production that aired on Saturday mornings alongside all our other cartoon options. It was easily my favorite back then – and I eagerly watched every episode that I could. My daughter informed me that it was also rebroadcast in the 1980’s and 1990’s so her generation saw that too. It was also made into a Will Ferrell film in 2009 (that was apparently a box office flop that I never saw).

Short version: The premise of the original TV show concerned a family of three – Dad Rick Marshall, his son (Will), and his daughter (Holly). While rafting on a camping trip, the family is transported to another world through a portal. In this world, they hole up in a cave and try to find a way back home. Their new world has dinosaurs (stop-action and puppet-animated), friendly and diminutive hominid Pakuni (notably their friend Cha-Ka), and Sleestak.

The Sleestak are slow but aggressive bipedal reptilian creatures. Some carry crossbows and in the show have all the accuracy of an Imperial Storm Trooper. The Sleestak inhabit the ruins of an ancient city and temple complex, and are occasional nemeses of the Marshalls. Among the Sleestak is a differently-colored Altrusian named Enik. The Altrusian civilization fell 1,000 years prior to the Marshalls’ arrival – and the Sleestak are their corrupted barbaric descendants. Enik had similarly been transported through a portal from his time to the ruined Altrusian city of the show. He sometimes helps the Marshalls – and the Sleestak generally yield to him because of his powers.

So, what the hell has that got to do with my Wars of Ozz projects ???

Well, I was getting ready to paint up my Pollywomps and make a brigade of them. Pollywomps are swamp-dwelling reptilian humanoid that are ruled by Prince Dismal, ruler of their swamp. They have a passing resemblance to both 1954’s “Creature from the Black Lagoon” AND the Sleestak. For my Pollywomp Brigade, I have an infantry regiment, a cavalry regiment, and an artillery battery. All are VERY cool and I will share in due course in future posts. But unfortunately I needed a brigade commander – and Prince Dismal is not yet sculpted and available for purchase.

However, in surfing the internet I found Forge of Ice Miniatures up in Alaska that has a few extremely cool “Saleesa” figures that are pretty much Sleestak. As they brought back nostalgic feelings, I ordered some, and I was very pleased with them and especially the customer service from Alex Bates. The figures that I got were:

Saleesa with Slingshot Crossbows (2 figures)
Saleesa Leader (2 figures) (Enik and Index Skull)
Saleesa Warrior Number One (1 figure)
Saleesa Warrior Number Two (1 figure))

I’ll share below how I made these into a brigade command base for Wars of Ozz. My plan was to have the Sleestak surround Enik and his “Index Skull” on a base that would look like a ruined city overgrown by jungle.

WIP Shots

I used popsicle sticks and PVA to set the figures up for painting. These are metal and 28mm in size.

As for the base, I decided to use a balsa wood base left over from my Minifigs World of Greyhawk Cairn Cavemen project from 9 years ago. I would need to add a space on the base for the both the leader ability placard and the 12mm dice frame. To those ends, I additionally repurposed part of a placard frame from Wars of Ozz miniatures OZZ-BA5 and a square of basswood I had lying around.

Using PVA, I glued metal supports under the base and set with binder clips. I even reused a metal garage door sample that would adhere to my magnetic sheet-covered Really Useful Boxes that I use for storage and transport.

I painted up the miniatures in the theme of the TV show – and did not take any WIP of them except as you see immediately below. Here, you see the wooden base – and I used a black Sharpie to try to create tiles. While I was not happy with it – it was a start.

Base completed (less dice frame) with painted figures. It needed more…

I had some “Make It Fun Project Bricks” made of hard foam. I crushed several of them, put them in a Solo cup, added craft Americana gray paint, and mixed them until the paint covered it all. They were then useful as texture flocking together with Citadel “Astrogranite Debris”.

The crushed “bricks” painted and drying.

The next step was to mount the figures, let that dry, and then add the debris flocking. Then, I added undergrowth once the debris was dry, as well as the dice frame and support.

And then I added the undergrowth/foliage:

I tried to give the eyes a reflective look. Enough WIP, let me share the finished work with you!

Sleestak Eye Candy…errr…I mean Pollywomp Brigade Commander Base

As you can see, I rolled for the brigade commander’s ability – and it came up with “Magical Protection”. I am now making my unit abilities permanent once they are completed instead of changing them later on.

Gifts from Buck!

As a side note, before I get into the list of paints that I used on the Sleestak, I’d like to share a couple photos of the cool Christmas gifts that I got from Buck Surdu. One is “Nit-Tickers” – which is a single base of walking time bombs for Wars of Ozz. Buck scratch-built these and they will be fun in a game – they are more or less sentient IED’s/walking time bombs that will be part of Professor NitPik’s forces. I do believe that Wars of Ozz miniatures has actual sculpts in the works for these. Still, I love Buck’s creations!

I also got a second awesome gift! Buck took a Whim Whim figure to create a “bannerman”. In the rules he can be added to the Sultan Whim figure at an extra cost to increase subordinate brigade commanders’ command radii to 18″ (normally they are 12″). I rebased the figure on an MDF base and added the requisite flocking and placard as you’ll see below.

As for the Pollywomps, I’ll be sharing those units shortly as they qualified for Dave Stone’s annual “Paint What You Got Challenge”. The Sleestak base does not qualify (as I finished it right before Christmas), but my other Pollywomps will, so stay tuned. At least now they have a leader base!

Building the Fierce Temujican Cavalry (Wars of Ozz)

The Temujicans are a fierce faction of green-skinned Gillikin-cousins that roam the deserts of the world of Ozz in search of plunder, enemies, and glory. Like their Whim Whim rivals, they have no artillery, and similarly rely heavily on cavalry more than infantry to win their battles. By “cavalry”, please know that these dudes ride rams and goats!

Over a month ago, I posted about my four Temujican infantry regiments (84 figures) that I built and painted. Since then I have been deep into completing the Temujican faction. By that I mean that I have been working on not one but FIVE regiments of Temujican cavalry (55 mounted figures) and three brigade commanders – 58 figures in total.

I will use these in several upcoming wargaming conventions in games that are already scheduled in February and April – that being COLD BARRAGE, TotalCon39, HMGS COLD WARS, HAVOC XXXIX 2025, and MAYHEM Gaming Convention 2025. I also plan on running games at HUZZAH in South Portland, ME (no link yet).

The regiments in question consist of two heavy cavalry and three light cavalry. The heavy cavalry can only move at the speed of infantry, and has inherent missile capabilities as well. The light cavalry moves at regular cavalry speed, and also has bows. They are very versatile compared with other cavalry units in Ozz. All figures are metal and 28mm. The stats and official colors of the Temujicans units and individuals can be downloaded here – and can be seen below:

Official **Wars of Ozz** stats for the Temujicans

A nice aspect of all Ozz cavalry figures is that the mounts come separate from the riders. This makes the painting somewhat easier. Still, these did take a long time for me to finish, primarily as the light cavalry had extra stuff (bow holders and quivers) to paint and assemble. And – unsurprisingly to regular readers of this blog – did go overboard on ensuring that EACH of the 33 light cavalry had differently-colored goats and dissimilar riders’ coats. Why?

Well, the answer is twofold. First, I wanted both of the regiments to have a look of relative nonuniformity as to their mounts and similarly I wanted that same effect on the light regimental coats. Secondly, in my paint inventory I now have over 78 different types of brown, 49 tans, and 41 grays. If you include some of the flesh tones and washes those numbers get even bigger. I wanted to use some of the ones I don’t usually use – or have never used – before they turn to hardened latex rubber. And I used several different flocking materials for the bases to give an Ozz-desert look. More on that to come.

For this post, with so many paints used, any semblance of WIP discussion is out the window. I simply think that sharing the photos of the completed figures will be enough. Let me know! At the end of the post you will see the list of paints and materials that I used by type of unit and/or individuals. Know that this is more paints that I have ever used on a single project – period. The lists themselves are a good record for me to use on future projects. With that said, feel free to scroll past the painting list when you get there and wonder if I am nuts after all.

Temujican Heavy Cavalry

Let’s start with the heavy cavalry. It is called “OZZ-534 EHC on Great Rams with Command”. The rams are armored – and resemble Bighorn Sheep.

OZZ-534 from the **Wars of Ozz** webpage

I painted the rams like the Bighorns and added white patches on their rumps, faces, and leg backs. The two heavy regiments have differently-edged flag colors – light blue and light green. That difference became the centerpiece of my color differentiation that you will see below in their photos.

The 1st Heavy Cavalry Regiment in line formation

Lastly, another regimental shot:

The 1st Temujican Heavy Cavalry Regiment in column formation

2nd Temujican Heavy Cavalry Regiment

And here is the 2nd Temujican Heavy Cavalry Regiment in column formation:

There were three light regiments of cavalry as well. These are OZZ-510, “Light Cavalry on Great Rams” on the website, but these all to me really ride goats. Their flags have orange, red, and purple borders – so those became the hat colors for their respective regiments. Otherwise, I followed the canon on coat colors and went crazy on mixing up goat colors with more grays than browns and tans.

Here is the light cavalry photo from the Wars of Ozz website:

And here below are my three regiments of Temujican Light Cavalry…

I also mixed and matched figures to make three brigade commander stands for the Temujicans. These will command combined infantry and cavalry forces.

Group shots and a video!

Lastly, I thought I’d share a photo of all the cavalry and a video. First, a couple of group shots – there wasn’t room enough to add the infantry and still show details!

Lastly a couple of video links. I don’t do a lot on Instagram – but here is the video below and that link as well.

Final Note

In the US Old Glory has a site – Wars of Ozz Miniatures.

In the UK go to Sally 4th.

Thanks again for looking and for me – happy and pleased with my Temujicans and excited to move on to the next faction to share with you!!

Sound the Trumpets and Bang the Drums! 4 Regiments of Temujican Infantry have mobilized (Wars of Ozz)

The first question that I am sure that you have is – “what the hell is a Temujican?“!

To answer that, let’s ponder the wild and wonderful world of the Wars of Ozz for a minute. Recently, my posts have shown the mighty Whim Whim and their leader, Sultan Whim. While the Whim Whim are indeed a force to be reckoned with in the Great Impassable Desert of the South- they do face a rival force in the Temujicans. These green-skinned desert nomads are cousins of the Gillikins (and are somewhat goblin-like).

As for the name “Temujicans”, it has an origin, and I had a hand in it. When the force was launched they were called “Eastern Desert” nomads. Rather mundane to be sure. The great Buck Surdu challenged several of us to come up with a better name that would evoke a historical reference for a cavalry-based force that could sweep across plains and deserts. My first thoughts went to considerations of the history of Genghis Khan:

Genghis Khan^[a] (born Temüjin; c. 1162 – August 1227), also known as Chinggis Khan,^[b] was the founder and first khan of the Mongol Empire. After spending most of his life uniting the Mongol tribes, he launched a series of military campaigns, conquering large parts of China and Central Asia.

From Wikipedia, “Genghis Khan”, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genghis_Khan

Now you see. As he was born “Temujin”, and the Gillikins were their cousins, I came up with the name “Temujicans”. Thus this was adopted as the official name of the faction! I contributed!

In any case, I decided to start building my Temujican army with the four infantry regiments I had. While in the game they are more cavalry-oriented – I decided that starting with infantry was a reasonable way to get going on the faction. Like the Whim Whim, the Temujicans do not have artillery or musketry.

As cousins of the Gillikins, they do have access to units of “Mercenary Gillikin Longbows”, which are SKU OZZ-409. I had two of these regiments to paint. I also had two other infantry regiments of “Infantry with Command – Unknown Immortals”, which are SKU OZZ-533. All four regiments have 21 figures each for a total of 84 figures for this post. All are metal and 28mm – though both Gillikins and Temujicans are somewhat diminutive in stature. They are bigger than Munchkins though. The Unknown Immortals, have their faces hidden, and all have the same pose except for the leader, drummer and regimental commander. The MGL’s have multiple poses.

Mercenary Gillikin Longbowmen from the **Wars of Ozz** website

Both types are armed with bows, but the Mercenary Gillikins have longbows (regiments hereafter referred to as MGL). An advantage for the MGL’s is that longbows can fire over intervening troops. The Unknown Immortals have bows and spears.

The MGL’s cost 5 points apiece – and have values for Marksmanship, Melee, Resolve, and Elan of 6/10, 5/10, 6/10, and 5/10. Each brigade can have up to two of them. The Unknown Immortals cost 6 points and have similar values for Marksmanship, Melee, Resolve, and Elan of 6/10, 5/10, 5/10, and 6/10. There can be up to two regiments of Unknown Immortals in a Temujican brigade.

So why are Temujicans green skinned? In Wars of Ozz, all races, to include Gillikins and Temujicans, were affected by the viruses and mutagenics released in the Last Great War. One of those effects was mutation of humans (and others) into different races. Another was the effect of “color mania” – with different factions being affected differently. While the Army lists (found here) describe the Temujicans as being outfitted in different sandy and brown shades, I thought they must have some residual affinity for purples as the Gillikins do. Hence, I decided to use some magenta and purple colors on them. I also used some darker bronze for some of the metallics like buttons and badges. You will also notice some neon colors like yellow and yellow/orange as liners and shield colors. Additionally, like I did with the Whim Whim, I tried to have common colors among the units designated as 1st or 2nd. I did this so as to manage to make sense on the tabletop as I deploy brigades. This will be more clear after you see some photos, so let’s start with WIP shots and discussions

WIP Discussion and how the Project Progressed

I started back on October 14th, and finished all on November 2nd. In between all this I had several golf events plus a costume party! More on those in a bit. While there were 84 figures in total – the Immortals had each a shield, a bow holder, and a quiver.

First, I needed to do lots of filing!

The Unknown Immortals regiments in prep.

Close up of the sprue that held the Immortal’s bow holder/sword handle combination, and a quiver with arrows.

Then it was on to washing and organizing it all:

All pieces for this Temujican infantry project filed, washed, and ready for assembly/painting on October 15th.

By October 24th I had made some progress on the accouterments and the figures.

As I mentioned, there was golf and Halloween too. I did end up shooting an 84 on my home course – which was a personal best – plus coming in tied for first in the year-long contest at my club – but I digress…

Plus for Halloween we had a nice visit from Elsa (aka Tabitha my granddaughter):

My daughter Ellen, Tabitha (as Elsa), and my wife Lynn

Then our Halloween party saw this couple (us) as Gru and a Minion:

Back to the Temujicans!

By October 29th, I was nearly finished with initial painting and assemblies:

Basing work on the figures followed:

Gluing the figures down AND SURGICALLY covering the bases with the sand paste and rocks took some time. I did not want a mess on the paint jobs, so typically I glued down 3 out of 4 of the figures first, then applied the paste, then added the final figure. Below you’ll see that after the paste dried, I added pigments to the bases. One regiment has no pigments as a comparator. I really like the effect of the three pigments I use on the sand paste – and recommend their use if you want a desert look.

Then I varnished the lot with an airbrush, and once that dried I added flocking tufts and rocks.

All the paints that I used are listed at the end of this post – but let’s share some…

I did think about how many “points” IRO or Wudugast would have given me for these 84 goblinoids for their “Orktober” painting extravaganza (if I was in it), but that’s more curiosity than anything else. Plus I really took until November 2nd to finish. Given that my 1984 West Point class was having our 40th reunion during that (last) weekend (which I did not attend) AND that Army beat Air Force in football too (which I did watch) – I did get to remember my 84 class with finishing these 84 figures.

So next I am on to the Temujican cavalry. I have two regiments of heavy and three of light, plus three brigade commanders to do. Onwards!

The End of the Whim Whim? (Wars of Ozz)

Hmm…that title sounded very ominous…are the Whim Whim, wiped out, a dead faction, lost forever in the sands of time, or at least the sands of the deserts of Ozz?

Well, the Whim Whim are still around! After 215 figures, I have just finished painting up this faction of nomadic desert-dwelling tribesmen! And before I moved on, I wanted to document the last few pieces of the Whim Whim faction that I have completed.

In a bit, you’ll get to see a video of the entire faction on the tabletop. But for now, what this post will cover are the last three SKU’s that I finished up. One SKU is the elite regiment of Whim Whim Janissaries (OZZ-1400), another is Sultan Whim himself (OZZ-1406), and the last one is the faction’s wizard, The Ancient Mystical One (OZZ-1405). The Janissaries are the same figures as the Whim Whim Spearmen I painted before, just with different colors. I will include some select WIP photos, as well as eye candy.

One reason for my relative photographic laxness is that I finished these off while fighting off COVID in early October! That was a bit of a struggle, but nothing I couldn’t overcome…eventually. Thus, my photography took a back seat to getting these figures done.

All of the figures are metal and 28mm in size. Let’s look at each in turn.

The Whim Whim Janissaries Regiment

The Whim Whim Janissaries Regiment (WWJR) is similarly-armed like the other spearmen. The difference is that their attributes are better. Neither type have missile weapons, and both have Melee values of 7/10 with a first-strike bonus. The WWJR has a Resolve value of 9/10 (50% higher than a regular spearmen regiment’s 6/10), and an Elan value of 10/10 (versus 8/10 for the regular spearmen). The WWJR costs 1 point more at 6 points. However, a Whim Whim brigade can only have one of them.

I decided that, like my previous spearmen, the WWJR needed a similar addition to the front of the shields to cover the little holes – but a different style.

I found some terracotta stars that fit perfectly on the head of a number 18 flat nail. With some really careful drilling, I managed to add the stars/nail combos to the shields and use them to support their mounting. I also used the DH-507 spear tip pennons again from Iron Winds Metals to jazz up the spears.

Additionally, as the elite infantry unit of the Whim Whim, I armed them with golden weapons. Yes, gold’s impractical in such a use, but it looks good! I also gave the regimental commander a rare albino siliyiplix as a mount. The Army List canon for them says:

Red armor and uniforms, brown boots. Turbans are white. Shields red with white trim. Spears have red pennons.

I used a metallic craft paint on the armor to decent effect. To offset so much red, I gave them white kilts. In the end, they do look a bit Santa-like with all the red. All the paints I used are listed at the end of this post for each project. Mainly for me as I often need to recreate a look!

Whim Whim Janissaries Regiment WIP Shots

I started these on September 22nd and finished them on October 7th. The key WIP I want to share is the star additions. I’ll share some shots below.

All filed, washed, and ready to get started.

I drilled out the shields twice. First, I did so with a pin vise that would give just enough space for the shaft of an 18-gauge flat head nail to pass through. Then I went on to VERY gently drilling out the shield with a 1/8″ drill bit on my power drill – such that the depth of the holes would allow the heads of the nails to nest flatly on the shields.

Here you see the 18-gauge nail head flush with the hole in the shield.

…and mocked up on the shields (not yet glued).

I used the alligator clip base for painting the shields. Once it was time to mount them into the holes that I had drilled into the wrists and hands of the Janissaries, I individually sized the cut needed on each nail.

Here you see how I individually sized up each nail – I needed enough length but not too much. Cutting the nails involved SLOWLY cutting around the nails at the right length with wire cutters in a circular fashion. Then I bent the excess steel off – without having nail shards ricochet into my eyes.

Now for the finished regiment!

Sultan Whim

The Sultan Whim figure comes listed as OZZ-1406 “Sulton Whim Carried on a Palanguin”. I will refer to him as “Sultan”. Also, technically a “palanquin” has a covered box – and he is on a litter with blankets and an umbrella. No worries, I just had to look up a few words to be sure myself. Litter, palanquin, call it what you want.

Sultan Whim WIP Shots

This project went pretty fast as far as assembly and painting goes. I made a small 3″ by 5.75″ styrene base for him, with steel bases underneath for magnetic storage and travel. I also built a placard holder on the back end. I mounted the bearers on it first and made sure that the litter would fit by manipulating and bending the arms, then lining them up with a steel ruler. The bearers were easy to paint this way – and I ended up using my alligator clip modeling base to hold the litter for painting. I drilled out Sultan’s – um posterior – and put a screw in there to allow painting him to be easy as well. The umbrella was treated similarly.

Laying out the pieces and figuring out the right design. (The Ancient Mystical One is not part of this model and is on the right).

I used graph paper and a steel ruler to figure out both the appropriate base size and figure locations. You can see the placard holder and 12mm dice frames in the back.

Somehow I needed to figure a way to paint the Sultan – the image above is enough of a clue I think!

For painting, I tried to incorporate purples, oranges, and golds, as those were dominant colors I used in the different regiments of the same type. My concept was to give Sultan Whim a luxurious bed on his litter/palanquin to travel the desert while consuming a large turkey leg! In the game, the Sultan can give an attached unit Superior Fighting skills, and as an overall commander has the “Legendary” ability.

I started the model on October 8th, finishing it on October 10th.

The Ancient Mystical One

This painted up very easily in one day as you can see. Skulls make painting so much easier!

The Ancient Mystical One has Spell and luck values of both 6/10. He does get three spells, at a cost of 2 points.

Lastly, I promised a video of all of the Whim Whim faction on the table. It consists of 11 regiments plus individuals:

Two Noobi Blowgun Regiments (40 figures)
Two Noobi Leader bases (4 figures)
Two Noobi Witch Doctors (2 figures)
Two Whim Whim Spearmen Regiments (42 figures)
Three Brigade Commanders (3 figures)
Two Whim Whim Chariot Squadrons (4 chariots of 8 figures each)
Two Regiments of Whim Whim Cavalry
Two Regiments of Whim Whim Bowmen (42 figures)
One Whim Whim Janissaries Regiment (21 figures)
One Sultan Whim base (6 figures)
The Ancient Mystical One (1 figure)

Here is an overall view of the faction:

Here is the video:

I hope that you have enjoyed this Whim Whim journey with me. As the Wars of Ozz is a post-apocalyptic world, the Whim Whim Janissaries, Sultan Whim, and The Ancient Mystical One you have seen here are eligible for Dave Stone’s recent painting challenge, “APOCALYPSE ME 2024”. It might not be the apocalypse many of you envisioned, but it is in Ozz!

Thanks for looking – and now on to the Temujicans – sworn enemies of the Whim Whim!
