Did you buy the Jeff Valiant miniatures recently? I heard he was out of business?

I've never seen those Westwind minis painted before. They looked a little funky on the website, but they look great here!

The Ral Partha miniature was a great find. I love him, of course your paint job helps though!

I bought the Valent figs at Historicon a few years ago. A cursory look online reveals a lot of dead ends though now ...

My thoughts as well - never liked them from the picture on the WW website but look much better with a lick of paint.
