Post by: Pil on March 13, 2011, 05:40:22 PM: Your entry looks great Braxandur though I must say in real life they look even better! I must confess however, that your civilians cannot stand up to the might of old citadel villagers combined with phreedhs mighty brush-control.

Phreedh: we've been playing Legends Of The Old West lately. While the west isn't really my personal cup of tea it is an enjoyable game in itself 8)

Well.. I already noticed that the pciture was a bit...well lacking detail... , it could have been better, but the last details were added a bit too late and at least I finished everyhting :)

Anyhow they deserve to be beaten by golden oldies :-*

@Phreedh: There are of course no limits to what I'm into. Though I blame a lot of good (and really bad) movies for that :) The next rounds will show a few more different settings

Don't rightly remember, Pil. Will check when I get back home.

For your sanity, forget them :) They are just old Citadel miniatures, the company who finally knew the secret of alchemy : to turn lead in gold, they just had to sculpt it and wait 30 years !

It was a great range. They are Citadel (Games Workshop) C46 models from the mid 80s:
