Artizan Sky Pirates
« on: 14 August 2007, 10:33:18 AM »
Hello.

I've just joined here, mainly because someone over on Frothers suggested that some of you might like to see these.  I'm only a painter, not a gamer, but, for those of you who don't know my work you might find some interesting stuff in my online galleries. Anyway, here they are.  (Hope I'm posting in the right area.  If not perhaps a kindly moderator will move the post.)

The gang...

And individual pictures.

Very cleanly executed. I want some. Thanks for sharing  :wink:

No disrespec' intended, but interesting that everyone seems to go for the red leather jackets on these sky pirate figures.

Down to the colour scheme of the original figure shown on the Artizan site?

Has anyone gone wild with an alternative jacket colour?  :mrgreen:

:cry: Groan!... not another fantastic excellent highly-skilled and productive painter who also knows how to take great photographs of his high class work...  :wink: I suppose maybe we could put up with another one of those.

Thanks for the comments and welcome.  I've posted some Jack the Rippers in the "Gothic" area.

I saw the orginal and, as always with me, wanted to do something different.  The jackets though are flying jackets so it's either reddish brown, dark brown or black.  Black was out because I wanted the head gear and boots black.  And I decided against dark brown becasue I had already decided on the grey/blue for the trousers and felt that the overall effect would be less striking.
