Thank god for that, I was about to hang up my brushes.

Your painting is still top notch though.

Nice job on those!

I love Hasslefree minis but I find them a challenge to paint because the fine features require a person to know what he is doing with shading and highlighting.

You did great!  Show us more, please.

Cheers Gents

These are my first Hasslefree figures and they are great.

The next one work I'm working on is a conversion of one of their fantasy figures -dynamic Ulfred - into something a bit wastelandary, with added pouches and post apocalyptic melee weapons.

We'll see

A bit of work here to change from what I would call a Viking style figure to someone more at home in a PA wasteland. I think I pulled it off.

Dync-U with paint. Going for the dusty nomad, Qui Gon Jinn, type of look. Well at least he doesn't look like a Viking now

Seven - a member of the now defunct Shiptown Haz-Mat Reclamation team.
This is my first Anvil Industry figure and I am blown away with the quality, and the mix n match options offer so much potential for truly original figures. I can see me spending a lot more on their stuff.

The Anvil figure is great. How do you find it scales with the Hasslefree stuff? Love the mix and match but I was worried that they would look to 'Chunky Imperial Guard' by comparison.

IMHO Anvil figs are great but I would say they are slightly on the slightly  smaller 28mm size front, thus closer to hasslefree and Heresy and copplestone etc. Of course they do also do Primaris sized not space marines also.

Of course opinions may differ ;)

Anvil flanked by Hasslefree - as far as I'm concerned the match is perfect. I've not got any WH stuff so can't compare with them.

Wanting a post apocalyptic figure in a kilt (don't ask me why) I had a go at making my own.

The dodgy bit ( the kilt & legs) are greenstuff and miliput. The good bit (the torso) is from the nice people @Anvil_Industry . Now to paint a tartan - orange and teal I think !

Head,torso and arms are from Anvil Industy, the legs and kilt are miliput and greenstuff.

Pleased with the look of this one, but my tartan painting still has a way to go.

Melee - working some Anvi lIndustry figures hard to create some dynamic poses - Melee#1.
Pose and fit pretty much sorted, now to prime and paint.

Melee#1 - Pretty much complete, along with dodgy nightime photos. Just a few bits to tidy up and some gloss to kill Figures from those nice people @Anvil_Industry

Cheers - the Anvil stuff is great, and the mix and match options are amazing, so much so, that I struggle with what combinations to go with in case I see a better combination later and regret my previous choice - decisions, decisions   ;D
