Also wanted to show off this Rackham witch-hunter tonight. I instantly fell in love with the model, and it only took me about 10 years to finally get it painted!

Beautiful work. Again a shame that Rackham folded...

One of my favourite Witch Hunters of them all! Great paint job on a wonderful mini. Especially nice work on the browns, and most especially the back of the coat.

It's a very nice model and I like how you've painted it. I remember sitting up and taking notice of Rackham when I first saw this figure many years ago.

Good job!
I allways like to see Rackham stuff painted. Those figures made me return to the hobby.

Keep on!

Very nicely done I missed the Rackham boat. Shame as I see lovely figs pop up from time to time here and on peoples blogs.

I can identify with the long delay in painting; I have a box stuffed with Rackham minis that I've yet to work up the nerve to tackle.
The Darkness Hunters & the other Griffons are perfect Witch Hunters, aka Old Lady Burners. Your color choices are perfect for the Sinister Guy as is your brushwork. VERY WELL DONE!

Thanks for the kind words, people.

I've always liked a lot of the Rackham stuff, but some of the figs I thought were too slender (for wont of a better word). This one works fine, though :)

I have a few more (well, a bit more than a few) that I should either paint or get rid of. Hopefully the next one won't take me ten more years to get to!
