Beautiful flesh tones, and the detail work on the bottle is particularly fine :-*. I also like the deck treatment on the bases- Top-notch all around.

That being said, personally I never find eyeshadow to be convincing at that scale (it always looks a bit garish to me). Was that at the request of the person who gave you the commission...?

Excellent job on those Bruenor.  Always fun to see some halflings painted up.  I second Heldrak on the flesh tones.  :)

Thanks guys.

They aren't on general release yet, theres a guy on Frothers called Lupus who will be selling them when he gets his store sorted, and I'm sure he'll sell them prior to that direct via pm/email.

Heldrak, shes supposed to be a pirate hussy, so I thought the cheaper the better with the makeup.
Slap it on with a trowel, lol!!

I believe she's a former governor of some place or another;)

Seriously, though, Bruenor, love these. Is he planning on doing other crewmen as well? It would be nice to have a selection so that an entire ship's crew could be made with the wee folk.

 lol  I think that the "real" version would be more plastic than lead, though.

Bruenor has done a wonderful job on the little figures :)

I'm hoping to get a webstore up and running sometime soon. real life keeps interfering. Have had some enquiries via PM, so if you're interested, I'm on here as well :)

The plan is to get more halflings sculpted :)
