Title: The secret, shadowy society of the Silver Serpent
Post by: Nord on 30 May 2015, 01:31:27 PM: Guys,

I have been bitten by the steampunk bug. Episodes of Ripper Street and Penny Dreadful started it. Recently I have been playing a few games of IHMN with Matiec and his enormous terrain collection. Now it's time to get my own company together. Here's the first. By day, Jade is a waitress in the Silver Moon cafe and rest house in the backstreets of Whitehaven, by night she serves the Silver Serpent.

There's a little more blurb on my blog (http://paintsngluenrocknroll.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Steampunk). A word of warning, this is a painting project for me, I want to take my time with these figures, so don't expect too much too soon.

Post by: Nord on 17 August 2015, 11:38:56 AM: Thanks for the feedback guys, much appreciated. And thanks to the Captain, I now know what attenuated means. I get what you are saying, I have a similar dislike for overly chunky sculpting.

The next set are not quite as slender, metal to boot, there's something for everyone in this hobby. :)
