I like those barbarian models, but I don't recognise them - who makes those?  Games Workshop?

The barbarians have that extreme contrast that I sometimes love and sometimes hate.  Comes off pretty good here,...um, I think.

Doc, love those tin cans.  Nice paintjob.  I can't believe you were able to afford two of them! :)

The figures are the latest incarnation of Marauder Horsemen from Games Workshop, with a few extra tentacles and spikes added for good measure.  GW's plastics have been improving dramatically as of late.

I must say Doc that your entry is my absolute favorite of the first round ! Those are really cool miniatures and the the rusty paintjob is very fitting. Really hope to see more of your work in the following rounds.

The large robots are great. Who makes 'em?

I really enjoy the seen with the green pea headed robots. The roughly painting of the barbarians is big ! Just ready to play.

Thanks for your comments, guys:)

The big robots are Smart Max. Sort of a pain to put together (I recommend a zip kicker or a fast drying glue as the resin just doesn't want to glue together easily), but they paint up beautifully, I think.

And yes, Mancha, I did have to mortgage the house to afford two of them, however...;)
