Unboxing Keysha from Purgatory

Last week Purgatory started sending out orders of their third model - Keysha, which I was rather excited about. In fact, I like the guys at Purgatory a lot, and they like it when people paint their miniatures and enter them into their contests, which I did for both of their previous releases - Death and Saint Peter. The way Purgatory do things is that if you win a competition for one figure, you win a copy of the next one they release. So, seeing as I won the contest for Saint Peter (I've probably mentioned it before, but it's still a pretty new and awesome feeling, so I'm going to keep saying it), here is Keysha.



As normal for Purgatory, she comes in her own named box, complete with art card, game card, Purgatory contact card and a sticker - and everyone loves stickers. 



Keysha herself comes in 4 resin pieces - Keysha, Keytar, Keytar strap and her 32mm base insert. The insert fits nicely into a lipped 40mm base, though if that's the path you want to take, you'll want to find your own - I tagged a box of 20 onto an order from Element Games a while back.


As you'd expect from a member of the Soul Train, she's all rock star pose and attitude. 







Her keytar came slightly warped, which is always a risk with long thin pieces of resin, though after a which dunk in hot water, it's nice and straight now. You can just about make out the awesome detailing engraved on the keytar showing it's not just an instrument, but a work of art as well. 




Finally, you have the base insert - a wooden stage with the trap door showing.


One of the things that Purgatory have asked for in their contest this time around is for some OSL, so I've started priming her with the intent of creating a spotlight effect from above her. 







If you fancy picking up Keysha, or any other releases from Purtagory, you can find them in their store which is attached to their Facebook Page.
