Shirah - Human Fighter

Forgotten Champions rise from the dust of fallen battlefields, and Shirah stands among the deadliest of them. A lone blade for hire, she has carved her name into the bones of warlords and tyrants alike, asking no questions beyond the weight of coin offered.

Sculpted by Haito, this highly detailed 32mm resin miniature captures Shirah mid-stride, round shield braced and sword drawn, her ornate leg guards and shoulder armour etched with intricate tribal patterns. Her flowing hair and dynamic combat stance make her an immediate focal point in any warband or skirmish force. The scenic base features shattered remains and broken earth, telling the story of battles already won.

Whether fielded as a frontline duelist, a hired sword, or a veteran champion leading a squad of mercenaries, Shirah brings raw character to any collection. She pairs naturally with other Forgotten Champions figures, expanding your roster of battle-hardened warriors drawn from the grim edges of a war-torn world.

Supplied unpainted and unassembled. Resin miniature. 32mm heroic scale. Suitable for experienced modellers. Not suitable for children under 15.

Shirah rewards a painter who leans into warm skin tones, weathered leather, and sun-bleached metal. Follow this guide to bring her to life as one of your finest Forgotten Champions on the tabletop.

1. Prime

• Apply a thin coat of grey or bone white spray primer to capture all surface detail across the shield face and armour engravings

2. Armour Base

• Basecoat armour plates and leg guards with Zandri Dust or Skeleton Bone
• Wash with Seraphim Sepia to deepen the carved tribal patterns

3. Trim and Details

• Drybrush raised engraving edges with Ushabti Bone for contrast
• Pick out the shield boss and studs with Leadbelcher, then wash with Nuln Oil

4. Weapons

• Basecoat the sword blade with Leadbelcher and edge highlight with Stormhost Silver
• Add a subtle rust glaze near the crossguard with thinned Doombull Brown

5. Weathering

• Stipple Rhinox Hide and Skrag Brown onto boots and lower armour to suggest mud and grime from long campaigns
• Scratch the shield face with a fine brush using Runefang Steel to suggest battle damage

6. Bases

• Drybrush the base rubble with Ushabti Bone, add a thin wash of Agrax Earthshade, then finish skulls and bones with Pallid Wych Flesh highlights and a tuft of dry grass for contrast
