Great figures and the brushwork is stunning.

yes superb figs and painting.
thought it was dallimore (by the specs on one of the figs!) from the newletter pics. At least I assume those were by him too?
but whoever, great jobs.

get's an incredibly velvety tone these days.

(bit gutted to discover, I think, that he uses AP paints now, having just bought a load of foundry triads!).

Kev's a North Star staff member, has been for a few years now, which is why most figures are done by him. But just because of the sheer volume of new figures we get, the likes of Andrew Taylor, Roy Duffy, Dave Woodward and Chris Adcock pitch in as well.

Kev has moved onto AP paints for a few reasons. After Foundry ignominiously stop employing him a few years ago, both he and I are hardly falling over ourselves to promote their products. Especially when it's 'from us only' type products. I think if Foundry paints were as readily available as AP paints, we'd have a different opinion. And linked to that, we stock AP paints so can keep him resupplied, rather than buying from Foundry. And I don't think his work has suffered. In fact he admitted, the three paint style was making him a little lazy, and moving to AP Paints meant he upped his game a bit.

oh, right.
well, he's getting fantastic results either way - very distinctive style - as I say, 'velvety' ...

It's the last day of the Nickstarter. I think we'll hit the 7th Spend Goal looking at the orders coming in this evening.

This is the painted Wraith of Malcor miniature that a Nickstarter participant will win. We'll be holding a prize draw involving everyone who ordered a Level 2 to 5 deal on Tuesday, and the winner will be sent this figure. Figure painted by Kevin Dallimore.

I like the idea of plastic wizards but already have so many that I don't know if I would buy them. I haven't painted 3/4 of the Frostgrave wizards I have yet.

Sounds interesting. My next catch will be the female soldiers Box.
