Lovely stuff! Very nuanced use of the muted colours.

Exceptional.

Cracking work!

I’ve got a surprising number of those figures - I hadn’t realised they were all from that range. Was this scenario in WHFB v2?

Brillant! I just love that set.

Beautifully rendered. Those miniatures have really come to life under your skilful brush work. Superb

Thanks guys, they were a delight to paint.

Yeah, I think so. For some reason the writers were obsessed with Lustria in the early days.

Fantastic stuff - excellently well done.

The scenario's in the First Citadel Compendium of 1983 - still have my tatty copy. John Blanche illustrations very closely followed by these sculpts. A real treat to see them here.

Brilliant Paul. Love 'em. Better than they'd have been painted by Citadel back in the day for sure.

Thanks - that was the other possibility. I loved that magazine so many great ideas - along with line drawings of the ranges!

Exceptional work Cubs!

I have to admit, I don't know if it's your paint job, or the sculptors of the time, or what... But they have quite nice proportions and animation, and surprisingly delicate details. More so to my eye than other models typical of that era anyway.
Thank you for sharing your work on them.

Amazing! I reckon Kremlo's the best yet of your Slann - and that's saying something! The Norse are great too - I've always loved that spearman with the mail veil, and he and the rest look brilliant here.

It's so old that it's a WHFB 1e scenario - Slann with Toughness C (=4 in 2e, confusingly)! You might have been thinking of The Magnificent Sven - also Slann-centric - which was in the WHFB box, complete with cardboard standees.

That could well be it. I’ll have to do a bit of googling to remind my self (or go rummaging in the cold…)
