My new Mortheim Warband painted by Faber
« on: March 17, 2012, 11:01:04 PM »
A couple of days ago I received my Mortheim miniatures painted as his first commission by Faber. You can follow the WIP-report here:

http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=36384.0

I finished the bases myself and added a flat varnish followed by re-glossing all the metal parts. Faber did a fantastic job, very detailed painting with nice shading and highlighting, good colour choice and precise brushwork. See for yourself, all I'm left to say is: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Great figures and the bases look great, too.

The good Admiral must be a very happy bunny!

That ol' Faber chap seems to know what he's doing, eh? =) They look really good, and you did a top job finishing the bases.

I better put my brushes and paints on Ebay, as Faber's painted figures make mine look like a 6 year old painted them  lol
In other words, his figures are superb.

Yeah!  :-* :-*
It's quite emotional to see my little children finished with those nice bases. They are really lovely! I hope they will be ferocious enough on the battlefield!  >:D It has been a pleasure to paint for such a nice and kind customer. Thanks for sharing and for the kind words Michael :)

And thanks to you LAFers chaps! I'm really happy that you like my paintjob :)

cheers!

Lovely stuff - I've always loved the Mordheim range of miniatures, and these are painted beautifully. Like everybody else, it seems, I've been after the Freelancer Knight for my Reiklander warband too - I think I'll just bite the bullet and order it from GW some time soon. It's too nice not to!
