I'd like to know your thoughts about these figures. I know they,re crying out for further embelishment tattoos, Chinese patterns etc. Tell me if you have ideas or links to usefull sites.

Cracking job on them, nice and clean.

I would suggest that if you do add embellishments to the first three figures, to keep it to a minimum eg. One shoulder tatoo on the heavy and maybe just in the corners of the manderins robes etc. You don`t want to swamp a great paint job with to much detail.

cheers

Some very nice subtle colour shading and high lights. I love the reds, in particular the interior of the cloak on the last figure is great. :o :-*

Very nice painting, as for the tattoos and what not, go with what Bugsda says. :)

Thanks chaps, I've heard today that Ironcladsman is happy with them as they are, so I need'nt take the trouble but I probably will anyway. They'll be on his stand at shows and maybe his site so you chaps can see them in the flesh so to speak.

Bugsda tremendous paint job, I'd seen them in the painting competition, I've been curious about them for a while as around the time I first saw them I'd just completed this set for Trev Dixon.

Adey, those are great. I find the computer screen tends to blow up all the little foibles, but these are absolutely fantastic.

Excellent!!! How do these figures look next to some of Copplestone's, with regards to comparing their scale?
