Ice Warriors, the ancient inhabitants of Mars, have met the Doctor on several occasions during his second and third regenerations, also reappearing in the Eleventh Doctor episode
Cold War. A race of honor-bound warriors, they are often at odds with the Doctor, and his less violent means of conflict solving.
The miniatures are from Harlequin/Black Tree Design's original series range, and are good representations of the on-screen Ice Warriors, standing a head taller than the average human.
They were easy to paint, one overall green and a handful of details, but I like how they turned out.
In addition to the standard warriors, I got Ice Lord Izlyr from the Third Doctor adventure
The Curse of Peladon to lead my Warriors into battle. Certainly one of my campiest paint-jobs!
A slight issue with the Izlyr model- on the show he has claws similar to the Warriors, not gloved hands. Still, I'm pleased with them, they were enjoyable to paint, and make a good, classic villain for any Doctor to face.
As always, check out my
Etsy Shop for custom commissions, and pre-painted miniatures.
