@Gargobot: Thanks very much!

Yup, all for the same gentleman. Yup, his collection looks awesome (and I don't use this word lightly) at this point.

Heyhey, working on a new batch of SDE figures:

Boy, these take long to paint. Even though they're just lowly monsters. First time I seriously regretted going NMM on these SDE minis.

Hope you like them and have a happy second advent weekend!

They are GLORIOUS creations that are more caricature than Chibi. I do love seeing your work; re, it is all very inspiring.
Enjoy your Advent celebrations as well!

Superb brushwork, I could never paint these! You have admirable dedication.

@DefNala:

Thanks very much! I did enjoy indeed. Saturday to Sunday we spent at a small-ish town, witnessing more or less folklore-y things...

Drinks and good times were had. On the Sunday I had dinner with the parents and stuff. Yeah, good times.

@Nord: Thanks very much! Yar, I think I mentioned it before - it's always a bit weird getting into the mindset to paint these minis, especially if I painted say historical 25mm figures right before that. But it's all in the variation, isn't it.

Done! Lighting's still a bit naff, but I hope that you like the paintjobs!

Very cool Krampus-Mobile!

Awesome paintjobs on awesome mini's.

I've been tempted to get some SDE just to paint. Those mini's are so much fun.

@Breazer: Thanks for the comment! It's basically our alpine (and boozed-up) version of zwarte Piet (got slightly repurposed for more effect and fun in recent years).

@Michi: Yar, I was surprised to see it (and they made a hell of a lot of noise with it too

). First time for me at one of these parades/runs. Good fun.

@The Voivod: Cheers! I paint a LOT of these for customers and still I cartch myself looking at even more SDE figures. You gotta get 'into' it at first, but then it's fun to see where you can cut corners on these minis and what stuff you have to pay real attention to and all.

Gargobot · « **Reply #42 on:** 12 December 2017, 11:05:18 AM »

Ah yes, the Krampus Gang and their Fiery Ride of Death, a most ancient tradition still honored today in its original and unchanged way!

Those trolls(?) look amazing! Maybe I should get some stuff for SDE, I think that might lend itself well to my painting style...

@Gargobot:

That's a nice thing about that whole Krampus stuff - there's barely anything about the old tradition left, at least with the clubs it seems. So more cosplay and performance than violence. No less boozing though, it seems. We met that ganz (sans costumes) before and after the "parade". Perfectly regular young ladies and lads, with their skinny jeans, their baseball caps and all. Yeah, come to think of it... those minis should go well with your painting style. You do the colours and such stuff. Should fit nicely.
