A new hope for chewing gum minis

[white knight]

Great work on the houses! 

Didn't think the figures would paint up this nicely. I used to have a load of them, but gave them to a forum member as freebies with another trade after I completed my collection of the metal ones.

They are of mixed sizes, but for the most part about the same height or slightly higher than the metals, but more bulky.

A couple of the more slender ones work ok with the metals to complement them. Or you can get the expensive metal Pixi mini range, which is the exact same size as the Metal Magic ones. I have several of those too (including the village and pirate ship, but I don't want to think of the cost).

I have a bucket of those... maybe I should try out my painting skills on a few.

The bard is called Trubadurix in Denmark (trubadur = Danish for troubadour).

Well, I have to admit, that my first version of the house of Automatix/Cetautomatix/Fullyautomatix ... is way to small and it also is only one half of it, according to some other drawings in the comics. So I made a new one.  Let's see how it comes out painted. Uhm, how to make the chimney.....Work in progress...

So this is the final result. Not exactly ike the original in the comic, but I coudn't resist to add some more details. The roof of the house is removable, so maybe there willbe some interior later on....

Wow!

Wow! 

Agreed!
You have certainly captured the feel of the comics.

Really nice house, and very good pj.

I must say, though, that the mold line on that mini hurts my eyes 

Have you considered basing the minis?

Well, the mould lines are very ugly, but these are no professional minis, youst cheap giveaways within a package of chewing gum, so you can't expect top-level quality. I don't play with the minis, just use them for my dioramas, so maybe I will just glue them on the scenery without a base.

[Argonor]

Ah, OK.

I know the minis quite well, I collected a bucket of them back in the 70's

Wow. That's some great work you've done there.
Bravo!
