December 2020 Modular Minis - Creating Poses
Searching for good combat pose images is time consuming and usually does not bring the intended result.
So, I made my own reference video so I can just cut out a given frame and use that as a base.
Let me know which poses you like most (use video timestamps in comments), so I can focus on those first!

Whoa, you dug deep in here. Careful not to awaken some ancient evil 馃槃 That pose was used on one of the rangers in Chapter 20!
The elves setting a shield wall with their glaives would be cool.
A shield wall pose is certainly planned! Plus some more dynamic poses for the wall edges to give a little variety to the regiment ;)
Good idea. Another thing you could try would be to look up some HEMA videos on YouTube or look at some historical manuals.
Renaissance treaties are a good source, yes. But that's why I made my own refs, so I don't need to search for the ONE pose I need :D HEMA is a lot about using the opponent's action, so it's harder to execute as a standalone mini :)
