Yeha! Mexican outlaws
« on: January 05, 2010, 03:18:38 PM »
A companiero and his renegade bankrobber. He's also a part of my latest commission, and I really enjoyed painting them.

The Admiral's right - you can always tell when someone has particularly enjoyed painting (and the other way too, when you have to force yourself to finish figures to complete a unit).

I particularly like the choice of colour for the bank robber - the green really works well against the red bandana and khaki trousers (great work on those trousers, too).

Superb stuff and you are only 15 year old ???

You are very, very talented. I wish I could paint half as well as you and I am nearly three times your age. ::)

15 - OMG that's pretty amazing work by anyones standards.
Well done. I've just finished painting one of those bankrobbers and mine doesn't look as good as yours. I love the Mexican too.

Cheers

I hope we get some pictures though, silvana :)

Good work on the bandidos Regulator! I just bought some my self. I agree that Artizan has some of the best west figures... that and Foundry I think.

Anyway, good work! :)

Maybe it's my Mexican heritage, but I just love Old West Mexicans!

Great job!  All my Gutshot games take place   in Mexico, and involve as many over the top banditos as I can muster!

I wish I had your painting skilz!

Awesome stuff! I've got some Artizan Old West minis to paint but I'm having to be disciplined and wait until I finish my current project...
