Title: How the West was won, one photo at a time!
Post by: styx on March 19, 2012, 12:26:40 PM
Well, inspired by a few LAF member on the Strange Aeons board I have challenged myself to try to post one painted figure a day.

So, introducing Jim Freeman. This figure is from the Foundry line. The photo did not capture his eye detail very well as the model was facing away from the camera.

Taking a break from this post for a short while. I am catching up on painting for Warhammer 40k for a tournament in a few weeks. I do have a stack of about 20ish Western figures to paint up so lots of new stuff is on the way!
