After seeing some of the great work here I am moved to submit some of my own Gothic Horror miniatures. They're a ongoing off-again/on-again project without any specific set fo rules in mind. That said, they have had a bit of an outing in Fear and Faith Games, but that's about it so far.
Anyway, here's a few of my Gothic Horror miniatures, I hope you like them.
Teenaged Vampire Slayer:

A fun little miniature from GZG. The 'true 25mm' works well to suggest this slayer has not yet reached adulthood.
Alice with Gun:

I painted this for a friend, but liked it so much I got one for myself and used a slightly different colour scheme:

Opposing our heroes is a pale Nosferatu:

Not the greatest photo I'm afraid.
Finally, here's a two photo series of a vampire prowling and about to strike only to have to flee as the first rays of dawn arrive.

So, there we go. I'll add more photos as I take them.

Nicely done, always good to see peoples different takes on the Westwind miniatures. :)
-
Nice. I especially like the vampires.
What is the (what appears to be a) church in the background?
-
very nice :D I like the Westwind Nosferatu set
-
Great stuff. Love the Slayer
-
Thanks for the kind words. I do like the Westwind stuff - most f the miniatures have a heap of character.
The church is an old Hornby HO or HO/OO church I used for 20mm games but works well at this scale too. It came with the stained glass windows but I modified the roof to be removable and put a floor in the top of the tower to accommodate a sniper of a forward observation team. The gravestones are, I think, from Steve Barber.

Westwind Vampire children:

I quite like these miniatures. The drop of blood in the lolly looks a bit rubbish but it seemed like a good idea at the time and was what the chap I painted them for wanted.
Here's a Reaper (I think) Vampy Vampress:

Quite a good miniature to paint but not the most practical pose for gaming - unless she always lugs about a headstone shaped folding chair.
-
Well done, really like your second version of Alice :-*

Very nice minis! ;)

Victor F & Creature (Adam Frankenstein?):

(http://i.imgur.com/jmBLdWz.jpg?2)
Both miniatures are from Eureka. Quite fun to paint, though I probably went a bit overboard with the handprint on the labcoat. I have the Westwind creature in a box somewhere and look forward to painting it up when I find it.
-
The hand print is brilliant! Not "overboard" in any way as it tells a story at a glance!
-
"it's aliiiiiive!" :D
Great stuff. :)
-
I've let this go onto the back burner lately with the BoB Painting Club. Painted up this chap, a Westwind 'Vampire out of time', which was rather fun a fun miniature:

Nice, I like him!

Like the vampires :)
-
Thank you. Hope to get some more posted in the next few week.
Should also apologise for pushing this up to the top of the list a couple of days ago. I saw a typo and fixed it - didn't know that would push it up.
Anyway, hope to post a few more things of one sort or another soon.

Finished some new and stumbled across some old.

I'll only get to paint these two of the four-pack as the Little Fish have claimed one each for their own.
Monster hunters

The middle two are from Westwind while the two gentlemen at either end are from Eureka.

Those WW figures are full of character, and you've got a very nice paint job on them! :-*

Re-jiggering now to move away from photobucket - let's see if imgur is a better option...
Anyway, recently finished Adam Frankenstein by Westwind:

I painted one couple for me and one for a friend and gave him fist dibs - can you guess which set he chose?

Just finished 'the Maniac' by Studio Miniatures:

Managed to get a bit of painting done over the last few days.
Here is Lucy the Female Reanimate from Bad Squiddo.

The 'My Last Sunrise' series really are top-quality miniatures and a joy to paint. I only hope I've done justice to the superb sculpt.
-
very good indeed.

Thank you for the kind words.
Here's a shot of Dracula and his brides:

These really are wonderful miniatures - a genuine delight to paint.

Well, it's been a while since I got anything of note finished but there's the Westwind Asylum inmates:

Very characterful miniatures.
I also finished the Studio Miniatures misunderstood Young Scientist and Assistant:

Good to get a bit of progress on this front after something of a hiatus. Maybe the upcoming Silver Bayonet is a factor here...
