The Gilded Stinger is a breathtaking fusion of humanoid elegance and insectoid lethality, standing tall with a 61mm height. This miniature features a dynamic flying pose, a massive spiraled lance, and intricate wing textures, making it the perfect centerpiece for a hive-dwelling hive-queen or an elite aerial commander.
An insectoid sentinel or queen dives from the canopy to intercept an intruder with her lance.
An elite aerial skirmisher, hive protector, or a mobile mid-dungeon boss capable of striking from above and retreating.
