Excellent paintjob, but why's he carrying a tap?  ;)

It's much more sophisticated than drinking straight from the neck.

I could've bent it the other way, but I didn't want to faucet.

I just placed an order for the vampire hunters and the brides.  Such iconic models.  I can't wait to paint them :D .

I finished up the brides earlier today.  I feel I let the models down in this case.  My colour choices could have been better.  If I did it over again I would have understated the contrasts in the robe and stayed with a blue to white tone for the flesh.

I can't find any fault with your three brides. I think you've done a cracking good job on them! Lovely stuff, HP!  8)

Nice work, HP.
 :-*

They should double up nicely as Witches for Strange Aeons too.
Having three makes a Coven, right?

Thanks to everyone for the kind words on brides.  They would work for a coven for sure.  There is a lot of significance to threes of mythical women.  The fates, furies/gorgons, witches.  I figured the Hammer brides were an illusion to these ancestral mothers.  I was shooting for a Roman classical feel and the flesh is as much showing the sting of decay as the leathery hides of older monsters.

I finished up my first hunter.  I tried to paint him as Peter Cushing appeared in Dracula.
