Making use of Mancha's tasty Hinterland lady hussars to add a little glamour to my Transylvanian VSF contingent...

My previous Transylvanian VSF contingent is here: http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=18808.0
The only slight problem being that the Copplestone figures are of course HUGE, whereas the Hinterland figures are very petite - a good 7mm height difference :(
Still, they're all such nice figures, I shall just have to live with it! :D
-
Saw these on SD also, unmistakenly yours ;)
Absolutely lovely and surely nice ladies like these should be on the petite side too :)
-
Wow!!! Those are fantastic. Very well done.
-
Delightful, :-* I think its time we organised a game for you to bring your VSF goodness to the table :)
-
Nothing wrong with a petit woman!
Lovely paintjobs, you're VSF force is really shaping into something nice, I really look forward to seeing where it goes. :)

Well said that man!

Excellent!
I would say they are about 500% better than some 95th rifles I've recently seen painted... ;)
Those folks over at Steve Deans... ::)

lol
Thanks Ray.
I'm afraid I can't say I disagree with you. (Not that I'm bitter ;))
But beauty, as ever, is in the eye of the beholder, and fair enough.
Sooner or later, I shall be forced to paint something Napoleonic, which Steve himself suggests is the only reliable route to extra votes. And as I've been edged out of the last couple of competitions at the same stage by just a vote or two, that might be the difference I need ;)
I honestly don't think I can paint much better than this, so it's going to have to be subject matter from now on! :D

Well, I, for one, thank you for your choice of subject matter. ;) These look great!
Regarding their size, I really should compare them to other Hicks stuff from Musketeer, Brigade, etc. I assume they're the same size, but I don't know for a fact.

Excellent. :) Loved these in the SD comp. Even voted for them. Lovely painting.

Nah, just paint what you like. I do. :) Who cares about winning anyway. ;)
-
Just keep painting what you like. I'm sure we'll all like them too :)
Very nice additions there to your forces. I really like the color scheme. Just wish I could afford to order a unit for myself right now :(
-
What can I say? Beautiful!
-
Nutter!
You keep up painting units of high quality.
And it's VSF. Double bonus.
-
Amazing work Richard 8)
-
Wowww!! really top brushwork!!
this proyect is very inspiring for me.
And Paul Hicks is the best sculptor in the presents days IMO.
Thanks for sharing.
-
:o
-
Shabash huzzoor! Nicely done indeed.
I hope the ladies all have silver bullets and perhaps wooden bayonets? I wonder if Hinterland will do some of them mounted?
I guess you could add a pack of large Games Workshop wargs as Dire Wolves?

Thanks James. I'm thinking of the new Otherworld wolves... They look the business :)

Aye, GW's wolves are pig ugly. If you want really big wolves take a look at the GameZone stuff. As I have said before, they are a joy to paint.

Or if you want some big wolves check out the Westwind ones in their Gothic Horror range. They are quite comic book and stylised, but quite ferocious looking.

wow those are just excellent :-*
wow
awesome
great
lovely
super :-*

Great work mate, absolutely stunning.

Yeah, Gamezone minis are awesome. Lots of character. Even the wolves.
-
Oops, missed this one. Serves me right for going away.
Marvellous stuff Capt B. What Malamullet said, bring them to the table for a game. Bags not being on your side though, putting my figs next to yours will make them look like Kindergarten efforts.
-
most excellent
colour scheme works much better on these
and indeed, nothing to say against petite ladies
-
For oversized aggresive wolves, but not the horse sized GW/gamezone type, I went with Bluemoon's wolf set. Lovely character too them. I'm not a huge fan of Bluemoon figures generally but the wolves were a good purchase :)
Here's the figures although the paint job does not do them any favours.

They are stunning Capn B. :o Honestly, I don't think it is possible to paint better than this. Respect.
-
just stunning
-
I honestly don't think I can paint much better than this, so it's going to have to be subject matter from now on! :D
what's the matter captain?
low on self esteem recently? midlife crisis? ;) ;) ;)
though I might not be the best to judge, I say - of course You can!
not too many people around here more capable of improving their skills IMHO :)

Those are rather nice wolves.
