I saw these on Steve Dean's forum and was wondering when you would post them here.  Vibrant colors and I really like the wood tones.  One of the main reasons that I bought the Odd Job figure from you a few years back was your painting of the wood floor for the base.

Just wonderful. Although I must say one of the archers gives me more of a Middle American vibe than Saxon.. The guy with the black hair and darker skin - looks like straight out of Mexico.  ;)


I hope to get some of these myself in a not too far future...

Excellent work mate.  :-* :-* :-* :-*

As already pointed out, great colour choices but it's the ease of the brushwork that is most impressive to me.
