D is for Djinn!

3 members of that ancient race who walk beside men in unseen, other realms...  Occasionally they pass through doors between worlds, dabbling briefly in the affairs of mortals before returning to the plain of air. 

 
                                  The classic Trampier illustration from the original Monster Manual.


                                        The first is a Ral Partha miniature I think from the 90s....

I painted him as close as I can get to the picture of Othere, the Djinn of Distinction from the Lost Worlds Combat Book Series.


A Grenadier Djinn from their official D&D line from the very late 70s/ early 80s.

Another Ral Partha Djinn...I had the idea that I could use these fellows in a number of different settings:  D&D, Pulp, (Little Cairo), and they might even fit into my ancient Egyptians vs Hittite.
We'll see where they first show up on the Big Board!
