Fishman,beastman,big man!
« on: 14 November 2017, 03:02:24 PM »
Got a couple of photos taken.
Old Chaos Beastman, Fishman ( released by Foundry) and Citadel giant(not as old but old enough!)
Cheers to Major Smith who built the giant, based it, then undercoated it and decided to sell it ( to me who doesn't like those steps!)

Is the fishman a classic GW mini? He looks cool.

Ahh I still think that giant is the best one that GW ever made, he's just the right size :D

The fishman is a variation of the 'classic' range.
Apparently never released by Citadel, but released by Foundry who seem to have loads of figures/moulds from that era

Great stuff! The fishman's gun looks great - very "early John Blanche" with those colours and the black lining!

The original fishmen featured in Warhammer first edition - both in the rules and in the Tony Ackland illustrations.

Good to see the crabman too - I think those Trish Morrison beastmen are the best Citadel/GW ever did - properly bizarre and wretched, rather than just being terribly butch.

You are a talented hand at the brush, old Egg!  :) I love all of them, but the blue and green hues on that fishman really are superb; that and the giant's teeth! Thank you for sharing!

Lovely work all round but the tattoos on the giant in particular stand out - really works on that model and adds some storytelling to it.

This. And I like the fishman too.
