Title: Some of LAM/Ratnik's Halberdmen
Post by: Blue in vt on 03 April 2012, 09:33:44 PM
Howdy all,

Wanted to use this space to post a few more pictures of the wonderful figures being produced by Ratnik and LAM.  You probably saw the picture I submitted for the LPL Round 4...here are a few "Studio" shots...there are more individual shots on my blog (http://bluesmarauders.blogspot.com/ )

Group shot:

And my favorite of the bunch...

Wonderful figures with tons of detail and character...I can't wait to paint more...but it will have to wait for the LPL to wind up!

Cheers,

Blue

Those are great. Not even a genre I play, but I love 'em.

I'm afraid the extravagantly grotesque look is a little too fantastical for my catholic tastes. But I absolutely love your colour scheme and paintwork on these Blue.

Thanks so much guys!

They will make a smashing unit once complete...probably sometime around 2020... lol

Cheers,

See, Blue - this is exactly why you should skip those scenic photos (in LPL). The scenery steal so much focus and you can't really see what an awesome job you did one these them. These photos are so, so much better and really show how talented you are.

Awesome job :D I prefer dwarfs but stuff like this might persuade me trying out humans.

Keep up the good work, mate ;)

Very nice Bleu  :-*. Those miniatures are on top of my most wanted list. I just have to convince my wife that buying a lot of lead is better than going on a holiday  8). Looking forward to see more of them painted. Keep up the good work.

I was really impressed by these when I saw them in the LPL Blue
I 'm gradually growing my Italian wars armies so I'll dip mt toe in and get some at some stage but I'll need to get rid of the slotta base

Yeah...as I want to use these for a WFB unit I too had to cut the tab and pin them into non slotted bases....the angle they are set at just wasn't working for me without pinning...they come with round bases BTW.  Generally...as a Vintage Metal Figure Collector....I find the habit of clipping tabs to be sacrilege....but as these are new, in production pieces I don't feel too bad about.

They sure line up a lot better this way!

Hehe, me and Kalle on the grand opening of the GW shop here in Stockholm. Been a few years I would say, but we look even younger today, honestly!
