Lovely. I thought that I had all of the Romany tambourine dancers out thee, but I don't recognize her

Ral Partha, but I removed the odd looking sword and replaced her hand... it was a very manly hand, but I've shaved it down as much as I can to make it match the other one...

A little WIP tease…



Quite pleased with them, just need to get in a paint mood…

Captain Kronos and Professor Grost!!!

I presume the girl will be Carla?

Fantastic!

Oh, I think that I do have her then. You did a great job on matching the arm

yep - she doesn't really do much in the film besides be sexy and act as bait, so will have her for completions sake, but don't think she'll be much cop in Silver Bayonet...

Great stuff. I'm surprised no one has produced commercial sculpts of these two. I think you have done a terrific job on them, can't wait to see the painted versions now.

If Graphic Novels are your thing there is a Captain Kronos one with a story that on from the film, Carla has a more active roll in it. Its a nice homage to the film, worth a look for inspiration.

yeah, I have that... it was ok. I'd quite like the novel adaptation (just called Kronos) that was done recently as well.

Paint will hopefully hide a multitude of sins - I'm hoping the weather stays cool this bank holiday so I can slap some paint on.
