Old as they may be, the BEAUTIFULLY painted members of the Thieves' Guild are all new miniatures to me. It brings home how few of the older Citadel miniatures ever made an appearance in my then local hobby store. OUTSTANDING WORK!

Great work mate!

I have Lightfoot as well, it is amazing how different he looks in the different paint schemes.

Love the look of those knights.
The sword is sharp, the spear is long! The arrow swift, the gate is strong! The heart is bold that looks on gold, the Dwarfs no more shall suffer wrong!

That Gimli is stunning!
 :-* :-*

I had not realised just how detailed that figure is until you had coloured him in so well.
A great sculpt, who will work really well in his new role.

Nice work.

Of course you can also get loads of baggage ponies etc from Foundry, and I think one of them is the old citadel one you've painted

All the best.
