Superb! That fellow in the blue sash is a bit of a monster!

There is a fair bit of size difference going on there, and only a couple of years between them. The wee fella with the bottle is pre-slotta (an old FS series brought forward into the C series) so probably in 'true' 25mm scale, with the others likely being the oversized 25mm or 28mm. It works nicely with these guys, being a rag-tag bunch anyway. The club-armed models used for the Maltmen are almost all taken from the C-series 'civilians', including the Citadel militia, townsfolk, travelling players, villagers, etc.. and lovely mins they are too.

Lovely work, as always. There is a pretty noticeable size difference, but then you’re mixing typically dinky Perry’s with chunky Copplestone.

Awesome paintwork. Really, stunning.

Now, I must either never consult this thread again, or I must sell half my mini collection (the Black Mountain Boys, the Citadel Personalities and whatnot) because the ones I have in boxes in my loft aren't even a tenth as nice as these, and the reason must be that you are a great painter and I'm an absolute muppet.

The figures are great but that bottle steals the show

More oldies (and another damn bottle) off the painting desk. 5 scruffy types armed with clubs/cudgels/mallets as McDeath Maltmen and 2 old Citadel Thieves. I didn't realise the thieves have the same basic body template until I started painting them ... very clever. I love the character and life in the faces of these old models.

😳😳😳. WOW incredible brushwork but that bottle...

Severian · « **Reply #415 on:** November 11, 2020, 12:40:20 PM »

Lovely stuff. Yes, bags of character in those faces. But the bottle is the show stealer...

Excellent! I love the plaid, and the way you capture/create the overall scruffiness. And as always, your basing is fantastic.

Grumpy Gnome · « **Reply #417 on:** November 11, 2020, 01:10:05 PM »

Brilliant work, as usual!

The brush work here is fantastic! Leagues beyond anything I can pull off. But what do you use for the bases? It looks like several different tuft types? Some looks like peat moss or something. What’s that from?

Cheers!
