{"product_id":"coven-of-the-black-woods-master-of-the-woods","title":"Coven of the Black Woods - Master of the Woods","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Coven of the Black Woods brings forth one of its most sinister champions with the Master of the Woods, a towering resin miniature that captures the dread spirit of a corrupted forest given terrible form. This physical resin miniature arrives with supports already removed, cleaned, and ready to assemble and paint. Standing approximately 75mm tall to the top of its branching antler crown, this figure commands immediate attention on any display shelf or gaming table.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe sculpt layers detail upon detail across every surface. A bleached skull mask dominates the face, framed by curling bone horns and a cascading, tattered hide cloak riddled with irregular holes. Gnarled, branch-like growths erupt from the crown of the head, twisting upward like a dead tree reaching for a starless sky. The body beneath the cloak reveals armoured segments on the legs, elongated clawed hands, and a hunched, predatory stance that speaks of something ancient and deeply malevolent. A runic seal is carved into the chest plate, hinting at forbidden rites performed deep within cursed woodland groves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Coven of the Black Woods range is sculpted with collector-grade fidelity, making this piece equally at home as a centrepiece in a skirmish warband or as a standalone display model. The dynamic pose and layered silhouette reward careful, detailed painting and will suit both intermediate and advanced hobbyists looking for a rewarding project.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach unit is a single squad of 1 model. The miniature is cast in high-quality resin and ships ready for assembly and painting. Some minor cleanup may be required on fine details prior to priming.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003ePainting Guide: Coven of the Black Woods - Master of the Woods\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis guide is written for the Master of the Woods, helping you bring out the spectral, cursed woodland atmosphere of the Coven of the Black Woods range.
