Cheers guys

The bus stop is in reference to the old bailey sketch where they have to catch the bus right at the end of the episode to try to get there before the credits finish. I know it's a little random but then thats Monty Python summed up in a word, random :)

Beautifully painted!
-
I LOVE it...BEAUTIFULLY painted & based enhanced by a FINE sense of humor. VERY WELL DONE!
-
Amongst your weaponry are such diverse elements as ... nice deep reds, and a sensitivity to the facial likenesses of the sculpts.
-
SUPERB :-* :-* :-* :-*
-
Excellent! :-*
-
Cheers guys.
I will say one thing, I was unable to photographs Cardinal Fang's scroll as I had painted the word charges across the top and then a numbered list down, you can just about make it out in his closeup photo.......just couldnt get the angle on it to photograph it.

NO! Not the Fluffy Pillow!!! ...anything but that! lol
Classic...your red is WONDERFUL!
Cheers,

The two things I like about this piece are the correct attributes, the bus stop sign and the great painting.
Three!! Three things I like about your work there are the pillows, the scroll, the sign and the obvious element of surprise it possesses.
DOH!! I'll come in again...

[DRAMATIC CHORD]
Hahaah!!
No really; since the first time I saw those miniatures over at Victoria Lamb's site, I knew I had to have them!
You've done them proud; the painting is excellent, the setting is just right, and (through the sculpting in addition to your painting skills of course), I have to say the faces are just that bit cartoony, but still recognizable as the Monty Python actors.
In short; I love it! 8)
Now for a comfy chair... :D

Bit late....lovely work Mr Dee,just cracking :-* :-*
-
Fantastic post!
Just when I was happy with my red recipes I see a better example. Any way you'd post how you did the reds?
-
Really damn good paintjob on those models :-*
-
Best mini likenesses to a real person I've seen in LONG time, especially that Terry Gilliam as Fang.
-
Thanks guys appreciate the kind words

Sure, basecoat with a dark brown I used vallejo game colour charred brown and then layer up using reaper master series carnage red and then layer up with reaper master series magma red (sparingly) taking into account light. reaper colours can be subbed with vallejo game colour gory red and vallejo game colour bloody red or equivelants thereof I am just now used to reaper paints, sadly not readily available in the UK

Excellent "face painting"!!!!!!!!
:-* :-* :-*
-
Wonderful. I think I need to get these figures.
I've seen them before but seeing them like this I can envision them in a game setting.

Great! I must say, I wasn't expecting monty python minis...
