'Old Citadel Nostalgia' - an ongoing project.

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.

You are right, Kremlo in Journal 1 (WFB1) and Mag. Sven in WFB2. Did anyone ever use the standees. I never did, and never knew anyone who did either. Citadel moved to the illustrated bases instead straight after.

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

They can be found on this very thread right here - https://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=109712.90

You know, I do think I like him best. Having him as the only Slann in this group made me stop and think about giving him a really unique look. I Googled pics of Amazonian toads for inspiration and decided at the last minute to give him little white scales on his underside, which ended up looking a bit like tough-guy stubble!

Yeah, that's a brilliant touch! It makes him look as if he's really 'gone native' among the Norse (or the other way round ...).

Those are very cool. Glad to catch up on this thread.

A couple of the old C-series Giants here, the second one was unreleased (which is a crying shame). I do enjoy the larger canvas on which to muck about.









The rust effect on the axe was from a lovely 'Rust Effect' wash I bought from Great Escape Games - it naturally dries in a realistic patchy way.

Wow, those are beautifully painted, and really characterful sculpts!

[Elk101]

They're fantastic sculpts, beautifully painted.

[Hobgoblin]

Wonderful!

That unreleased one looks like he might feature somewhere in the family tree of those plastic Fighting Fantasy figures that Citadel released in the 80s.

Nice work.

[Little Odo]

Superb work as usual. Those giants just ooze with character

I’ve run out of superlatives. Shame that you stopped painting for others.

[Cubs]

Thanks dudes, most kind. They're such fun to paint, but they do takes absolutely ages.

Well, I still have a couple of long-term customers - these are for Richard Hales from the 'Stuff of Legends' website - but I don't have time to take on any new customers, what with real life impinging on more important stuff.

[Citizen Sade]

Life’s like that, isn’t it?

Can’t think of a better recipient that Richard Hales and SoL.

[hubbabubba]

Those last couple are awesome, as we have come to expect of you, but the Legend of Kremlo collection is absolutely beautiful.

Fantastic body of work.

[Grumpy Gnome]

Brilliant work. Excellent skin tones. Lots of personality.
