They look bloody great. Before I saw these with your paint on I would have only used the word shit to describe the figures.

This.

Looking at the plastics and comparing them to yours I'm amazed they're the same figures! Just shows the difference a good painter can make.
So many projects..... so little time.......

I feel so much better now dean has concurred ;)

You really need to add some Calpe figures to them

The character for the Danish faction is done:


Otto Løwe, adventurer and compulsive Rhino hunter

The three first factions for my Christmas game:


Danes


British (who are eagerly awaiting new miniatures! WGF poooh!)


Locals

Last faction done.


No VSF without ze Prussians! (I touched up some old figs that I did a crappy job of some years back)

Now we just need to know what all these parties are doing in the thick of the jungle!?

Here's the bat rep from our game. I've tried to write in American comic book style.

Looking good, but I see a bit of historical inaccuracy.

Mr. Løwe killed Puddington, not Santa... Santa was killed by a normal Danish trooper :)

Maybe the comic book editor chose to edit it and change the plot..

Ah well... I was rather in a hurry when I wrote it up.   lol

Well, my pleasure!

I think this whole cartoon business is a bit funny, but I guess I can learn... If we play a scenario with an actual story in it at some point it will probably work even better.  lol

As to who killed whom, I'm reminded of 'The Man who shot Liberty Valance' - "when the fact becomes a legend, print the legend"!
