Damn! Two very good entries, but the highlights on those 15s? Are you sure, they're 15mm or did you just use the shrinking ray on bigger minis???  ;D

Great entry BasementDweller - love the Mordheim range, some GW's best Minis.

Cheers Divismal - I must admit, I did have to hold my breath to paint the ribbing on the orange guy, and it's still not bang on !

Both are amazing entries -- and the score was neck and neck when I voted. Jagannath, your skill with highlighting on 15's is amazing. And Basement Dweller, those are beautiful minis...! I love the vestaments on the priestly guy with the hammer!!

The trick is to use the shrink ray on yourself, not the minis.  Just remember to hit your tools and paints as well, and to lock the cat out first.  :)

The backward highlights on the torch flame kind of wrecked the first entry for me.  So well done otherwise, but the bright part of a fire is at the bottom, not the top.

Thanks for nice comments all - a shrink way would be handy, though not sure I fancy painting at 1:1 scale!

Witch hunters were my favorite Mordheim team!

Jagganath, I love your minis, wonderful paintjobs all of them!

Two great entries - really nice painting on both counts

Jag I think these could be the best you've put in yet and that's saying something as the others have been great too

Thanks both - Bergil, I'm grafting away to get some Dorfs in as my final entry, not looking good though - it's too hot to paint!

Wow, thanks! I always like painting groups on individuals whilst trying to tie them together a touch.

Love those bounty hunters, Jagannath.
The conversion of the figure second on the left is so simple yet very effective.
And, as others have said, the fact that you can get so much detail in your 15mm painting is amazing.


I don\'t know whether to be a good example or a horrible warning.

Thanks! It's taken me a long time suss that a number 1 brush is much easier to paint detail than a tiny brush (which is what o used to use). I only went below a 1 for the ribbing on the orange guy I think.
