The following are some of my earliest efforts with my painting style (which I'm very comfortable with... drab color choices and all

). I started these about 4 years back. I got about as far as tribal warriors and then the project stalled. 15mm Nam, 20mm moderns and 28mm Pulp all got in the way, but I fully intent to "return to Africa" one day.

First up, explorer/hunter types

I for one heartily endorse your color choices. I don't call them drab, I say "naturalistic"

Very nicely done!

Next up, some tribal witchdoctors and villagers

Some animalia:

This is the Tamiya 1/35 "jumbo croc" with a figure for size.

Excellent! Don't look drab to me either

Very nice, my very favorite minis (the Obelisk Tong figures painted by OrcTrader)are painted in more restrained colors. Restraint has its place in interpreting our little lead dollies at times

I hope some of you get a chance to see (and even play with!)Todd's minis. They are really quite outstanding.

You're too kind Peabody.

I think your muted palette is also to my liking. Looking good, Todd!

Thanks for showing us the croc. Never heard of that figure. That's a good size for a pulpy "man-eater of..." scenario.

Most effective! Very nice indeed...

Excellent color choices! The khaki is a great shade.

Thanks a bunch fellas.

Remington, the croc comes from this Tamiya 1/35 plastic Mesozoic Creatures kit: http://www.ehobbies.com/tam60107.html which has all kinds of goodies for Lost World scenarios.
