blimey, what a cracking collection of scenes - thought I'd followed the LPL, but don't remember them!

the abe lincoln and thulsa doom figures are both superb sculpts and amazingly well-painted.

ironically, the gnolls are probably my least favourite - too 'brown' overall, but still, they're very well done.

Thanks, just what I was looking for, whether I will get anywhere close to that level of detail is another matter but its food for thought.

Mine aren't a patch on Dr Matthias's, but here they are in any case. I went for the classic Monster Manual scheme ("greyish-green"):

Thanks! Yes, the big one with the flail is Reaper bones. The big one with the axe is Wizkids.
