Amy Winehouse?!
« on: October 13, 2009, 02:52:41 PM »
I have no idea why Artizan decided to produce such a mini, but here (from the Kiss Kiss Bang Bang range) is Amy Winehouse:



Can't think of a use for this mini, but it was a fun paint!

That' great!  She looks like something to be protected in Zombieland.

I don't think Amy Wino needs much protecting lol

Very nice painting :)

That really is very fine painting. Whether or not one should protect her from Zombies, or the other way round (I heard she was the Queen of all Zombies anyway), she might be a bit more use in a Superhero-type game (mad professor/alien overfiend kidnaps Earth Celebrity for ransom or evil purposes). I think most players of zombiepocalypse games wold go "meh. Let the zombies get her", wouldn't they?

I would leave her to the zombies, definitely. Some of her music's nice, but her public image... oy vey!

Nice work!

I was thinking of using that figure as Lord Fanny, the Transvestite Bruja from Grant Morrison's Invisibles, but I'm having trouble finding suitable figs for the rest of the crew, so I might just leave that for the time being.

That's too fat and good looking for Amy Wino  ;). Nice figure and painting though.

I can't work out if it is the sculpt, the paintjob or both...but that wee piece of metal and paint is certainly far more attractive than the real thing.
