Title: The first of my Bloody Miniatures, vicious mercenaries.
Post by: THE CID on March 27, 2021, 05:04:37 PM
Introducing Captain Black Jack Jobson and his thugs. All figures from the lovely new Bloody Miniatures range.
First up the Captaiin himself, I added an eyepatch to bring out the evil sneer in his face. Black Jack self appointed captain, willing to sell his sword to anyone if the price is right. Also available to burn your local witch.
Secondly we have Donegal o, Sutherland, Irish charmer and Cutthroat. Has a knack of controlling guard dogs with a secret whistle.
Then we have Dirk the Dutchman battle hardened on the continent, quiet and mysterious.
Lastly Young Tom Muggins, easily led psychopathic swine herd.

Bloody brilliant, Craig.

The psychopathic swineherd  lol

You’ve made them look highly disreputable. Perfect :)

How’d you find painting them?

Thanks Richard, I found them a joy to paint, loads of character, that's why I had to name them. I won't be attempting any head swaps, but I cant resist adding green stuff beards etc.
When I added the beard to the second figure he just looked like Donald Sutherland hence the name and backstory 😂

Nicely painted and clever use of putty to make the beard. Indeed, not to mention the names you came up with.

Best regards,
Helen

Great paint jobs!  Love the stubble etc.  You’ve really brought out the character of the figures.

I have some on the painting table at the moment and they really are a joy to paint  :)
