Makes my recent old-school chaos stuff look like the work of a blind monkey with no hands. 


But if you give an infinite number of JollyBobs paintbrushes for an infinitve amount of time, surely winning the LPL is an inevitability!  lol

Great paintwork on show here though (and on your blog) – and those old sculpts really do have so much character. I like how you've also posted pics of the original White Dwarf adverts too. 2.50GBP for two centaurs? Ha!  ;D

Can I add a small amount of my sticky white love piss to the discussion?  These are absolutely superb.  Some of the best paint-jobs on old school minis I've ever had the fortune to see.

It's really well done... as the rest!

Disturbing thought to think about the fate of these moulds.

Wow!, wow!, WOW!  :-*

Ooooh the nostalgia!

Wonderful miniatures and an even better paint job.

I'm so jealous of your collection.

Thanks for sharing.
I know you're too old to play with toy soldiers. So give them to me... NOW!

Wow, I just saw this for the first time, and I'm floored. Great paint job on everything. I love seeing all the old chaos minis painted up so well. They have so much more style and character than the newer stuff.

Only just seen this thread.....
WOW!
All those paintjobs are wonderful.
The subtle blends and choice of colours is inspired.
Love 'em all.
Just love all the old school minis. The best period Citadel/GW ever had.
Have been collecting a few recently myself, mostly for Mordheim warbands.
Why, oh, why did I not hold on to all my minis from the eighties?
Going to go off and have a sulk now................

The original moulds of a lot of these figures were slashed and cut then dumped!  :o Some made it through re: masters but a lot sadly didn't.

Nicholas, simply amazing miniatures I am in awe of your subtle but striking paintjobs.

Encore! encore!
