I would suggest that if you do add embellishments to the first three figures, to keep it to a minimum eg. One shoulder tatoo on the heavy and maybe just in the corners of the manderins robes etc. You don`t want to swamp a great paint job with to much detail.

cheers

Some very nice subtle colour shading and high lights. I love the reds, in particular the interior of the cloak on the last figure is great. :o :-*
I have been thinking about getting these figures, seeing paints jobs these has made my mind up. My wallet thanks you >:(

Post by: Adey on 02 October 2009, 12:44:42 PM: Thanks chaps, I've heard today that Ironcladsman is happy with them as they are, so I need'nt take the trouble but I probably will anyway. They'll be on his stand at shows and maybe his site so you chaps can see them in the flesh so to speak.

Bugsda tremendous paint job, I'd seen them in the painting competition, I've been curious about them for a while as around the time I first saw them I'd just completed this set for Trev Dixon.
