Both beautiful entries - love the painting on the witchdoctor masks!

Have to ask though - Pil, where are those beautiful minis from?!

I am more and more astonished by how well that Calimeronian Herge-style works.
Simple but ... very cool!

best wishes

Very cool cannibals Calimero! I do like your style and it really works well on these models as Drachenklinge said. I love the colours on the masks, very effective!

Have to ask though - Pil, where are those beautiful minis from?!

Three of them are Spacelords civilians from EM4: http://em4miniatures.com/acatalog/Civilians.html
The goblin is a 25mm dunwich detective gangster from em4: http://em4miniatures.com/acatalog/Cops_and_Gangsters.html (Gangster with cigar Ref: 2006a)

The leader is a conversion: Black Tree's Omar Bradley: http://www.blacktreedesign.com/restofworld/product.php?productid=24771&cat=2590&page=1
With a plastic head from the VOID Viridian Marines: http://www.scotiagrendel.com/Products/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=2851

The conversion is very simple (just a head swap) but I think it's very effective.

Two nice entries here. Those civvies look excellent, Pil. The two in the back look quite different from how I painted mine. It's always interesting to see what a paint job can accomplish. They are nicely painted. We really should have a game including civvies some day, seeing as we have quite a lot of them painted up :)

The cannibals look good. I love the colours of their masks, the red, black and white works really well together and makes for a very effocative look!
