Title: 28mm gangsters, and a reporter - PICS
Post by: Remgain on 25 October 2009, 05:08:15 PM
Ciao,

those minis were finished and waiting on the shelf, and today I had the time to get some pictures.
There are gangsters from Pulp Miniatures, and a reporterter form Artizan Design.
Hope you like them!

Marco

Good grief, a tommy-gun armed Norwich City Football Club supporter! What ever next?

On the ball city!!

 lol lol

In the beginning I was thinking of a redblack scarf of Milan AC, but then I switched to a more anonymous - in Italy - greenyellow.
Now I'm happy to learn that greenyellow are the social colours of Norwich City! :)

The stripes on the reporter's shirt; the plaid lining of his coat; the other guy's pinstripe suit... all awesome, I am envious. Stripes and tartans still scare me, perhaps I'll attempt some on the next round of figures I paint... or maybe not!

Nicely done, in any case!

Wirelizard,

I painted those lines with a brush Windsor & Newton 00 Series 7, and it was quite an easy job.
I get W&N only because they're easily available, but there are several others very good brushes.
There is a link dealing with the brush topic.

So, it's not the painter, but the brush! ;)

Very good.   :)

I'm (very, very slowly) painting some gangsters myself.  These are more nice inspiration.

The Burberry check is a particularly nice touch.

Seriously - I'm going to have to get one of those brushes... Always been too too chicken to do those fine line patterns.

Actually it IS easy, Warren!
Good brush and steady hand, and well watered paint. ;)
I have also a 000, but it isn't as good as the 00.

Okay... I'm going to trust you on this. Going to have to give this a try because I'm really tired of miniatures that are wearing non-decorative types of clothing. Boring stuff!

Nobody but nobody sculpts a non-passable transvestite like Bob Murch.  :)

Nice paintwork buy the way
