WWI Hobbits

[keeper]

I originally painted these little chaps as part of LPL3 link, but I also entered them into the Unit category at Sheffield Irregular's IMP09 event, where they won me the bronze award! Hurrah!

These are a couple of rather better photos than the one I entered into the LPL

Clearly photography is still one of my weak points, but I keep working on it!   Used a tripod and a white top on my photobox, this time!

Your C&C are quite welcome, but not expected as plenty of people commented on the original post!

Very nice I have 10 waiitng to be painted as an alternate force to fight my Quar, I saw that Kev is going to do some multipart ones to flesh out the range

[Hammers]

They are Hasslefree, correct?

[keeper]

Sorry Hammers, didn't say.  Yes, they're from Hasslefree   I think they call them Kindred.

weird

old 25 mm figures used to look like this in the 80s

These guys are very small circa 20mm. There is actually quite a bit of detaqil on them which I think the photo blurs out and not being a good photographer I can understand issues with photos

Maybe after I'd finished splashing paint on them they looked like this, but in the bare metal they were never as good as these minis!

@Lowtardog: Yes, they are tiny.  I sort of assumed that would be a given, since they're hobbits   As you're painting them, they actually seem a touch smaller than some of the 20mm stuff I've done.

Yep I haven`t touched mine yet for just such a reason. I fancy taking them off the slotta bases and mounting on pennies. I think they could be as small as 18mm. They are lovely figures though. I am hoping with more releases in the future to build up a platoons worth

What a great idea, now I have to buy some to fight my unpainted Quar.

true
I expressed myself wrongly
I meant the tiny appearance

I understood former user - I was being deliberately evasive   I get like that during especially boring days at work!
