I love reaper figure especially the Chronoscope range. They are great figure for painter and you have such a wide range to choose from, as seen here. For the most part they are fairly easy to clean up but they do suffer from lots of mold lines so you need to put some time into your prep work. I did a couple of more citizens for my western town of Hellish Wells. First up is a bartender who was done right out of the package and was an easy paint job. The second is my Undertaker who started out as an Uncle Sam figure. I removed the stars from the hat band and added a few ribbons down the back of it, other than that a simple black paint job and done.

Good job on both of them, bandit!
We have bought a ton of Reaper through the years. Not so frequently now - while I like a lot of the Chronoscope figures, since we play almost exclusively fantasy we don't have use for many of them - although we do pick up some of the pulp figures with an inter-war feel because we plan on playing some pulp games at some point. With Reaper's fantasy figures, we don't buy as many now because their style is shifting to match the art in Paizo's Pathfinder books and D&D 4th edition, both of which emphasize weird clothes and silly over-sized weapons.
Anyway, back to the point... you did a good job with both of those figures!
