Shabash huzzoor! Nicely done indeed.

I hope the ladies all have silver bullets and perhaps wooden bayonets? I wonder if Hinterland will do some of them mounted?

I guess you could add a pack of large Games Workshop wargs as Dire Wolves?

Thanks James. I'm thinking of the new Otherworld wolves... They look the business  :)

Aye, GW's wolves are pig ugly. If you want really big wolves take a look at the GameZone stuff. As I have said before, they are a joy to paint.

Or if you want some big wolves check out the Westwind ones in their Gothic Horror range. They are quite comic book and stylised, but quite ferocious looking.

Yeah, Gamezone minis are awesome. Lots of character. Even the wolves.

Oops, missed this one. Serves me right for going away.

Marvellous stuff Capt B. What Malamullet said, bring them to the table for a game. Bags not being on your side though, putting my figs next to yours will make them look like Kindergarten efforts.
Don't!

For oversized aggresive wolves, but not the horse sized GW/gamezone type, I went with Bluemoon's wolf set. Lovely character too them. I'm not a huge fan of Bluemoon figures generally but the wolves were a good purchase :)

Here's the figures although the paint job does not do them any favours.
So many projects..... so little time.......

I honestly don't think I can paint much better than this, so it's going to have to be subject matter from now on!  :D

what's the matter captain?
low on self esteem recently? midlife crisis?  ;) ;) ;)
though I might not be the best to judge, I say - of course You can!
not too many people around here more capable of improving their skills IMHO  :)
