Nice collection you have there.  Great job painting them.

Oooooh! Nice. Very nice. Can we see them in a scenic setting for the full effect?

Why not, just don't hold your breath - I haven't even started putting together any suitable terrain...

Very cool!  I've been wondering if there were any companies that did Undead Hopolites.

Fantastic. Another fan of the skeletal hoplites here

Great job Marko! How did you get the nice flesh on the satyrs?

VGC Tan base, wash with GW Ogryn Flesh, repaint VGC Tan and highlight by adding VMC Flat Flesh if I remember correctly. The main object of painting these was to figure out how to paint flesh tones, and I figured that the two factions would be easier to distinguish on the table if the flesh tones were different.

The skeletal hoplites are really nice, and quite cheap as all Eureka minis are, but as I said, somewhat difficult to put together. Another thing that should be pointed out is that they are a bit taller than the satyrs (3mm perhaps).

I still need a couple of centaurs and suitable monsters. I have six centaurs from Eureka, but not sure if I want to use them as they are - from the waist up - practically the same sculpts as the satyrs... Maybe Black Hat Shattered Isles centaurs, but I think they look a bit too bulky in the pictures. Maybe its just the pictures.

Beautiful sets, Marko, and very nice painting; I especially like that verdigris skeleton armour ...

That's a very good looking set, Marko. You should come and visit us in Sweden with that.

Heh, maybe I will - got any cons coming up? I do practically all my gaming nowadays in Kustavi and Turku (Åbo to you swedish speakers), which is almost on your side anyway

No cons that I am aware of. Those which exist rarely put on games which I am interested in (D&D, 40K and such things). Mattias, I and Col. Stone were talking about doing a LAF meet (we've had one before). I think I can rustle up a couple of other old hands to. Out of curiosity: do you speak any Swedish?
