 :o Just keeps getting better Alex. I love this thread.  :-*
As happy as i am with my 18mm "Vales of Anduin" collection, witchtown shows me what is possible and just makes me try harder.

Is the armour and weapons painted NMM?

Really cool.  Outstanding painting.  That first picture really looks like the biggining of an epic battle.
So many games, so little time.

Cheers, Robert  :) Btw, I love your collection, so much creativity and epic scenes there  :-*

Actually not, metal as usual with some blood, rust on it. Some parts are supposed to be stone (e.g. Troll one)

Witchtown - Freaks Carnival (upd. 03.04 - p.42)

When I saw these Eureka miniatures based on the art of Hieronymus Bosch and Pieter Bruegel, I immediately knew that I had to get them and that these would fit very nicely in Witchtown. So amazingly bizarre and quirky, they are really wonderful creations. The figures have been sculpted by Mick Darpa and there are more of them in the meantime, Eureka expanded the range with some further additions. And more are to come, apparently. I guess I will get a few of them later this year, you know, a city like Witchtown can't have enough freaks..

They were easy and fun to paint. Originally the guy on the barrel (some kind of a king of whatever city/country/tribe)  shoud be pushed by the other guy.  I thought that sort of transportation can't be very effective and I've added two Bruegelburg pigs to make it more plausible.

I wanted to have some sort of a carnival scene, the guys walking down the street and all the citizens looking at them. For that reason I've tried to put as much as possible of the citizens into the picture without hiding the main protagonists of the scene. I think it did work quite well. But now enough of words, let's have some pictures:

Very nicely painted.

Wave 3 was released on the Eureka Miniatures late last year and wave 4 will be soon after Salute.
