Those shields and lances that you found look great. I too am waiting for some paint to go on that pony-rider.

Can I ask why he is mounted on a round base instead of a rectangular one. Does it have anything to do with this "Pickford project" you talk about?

Technically it's a hand (set #1 spear hand) and weapon swap - but yes, you are right. And thanks. Will be a useful stand in till you get yours done.

Noting to do with my painting Pickford's project, but I will be using the for small skirmish games and for PCs in in RPGs, and they look so much better on round bases than squares, IMO. It did cross my mind using them as classic warhammer Bretonnians. Should that happen, well.. , I'll just have a small re-basing project ;)

2 months without an update :?

- haven't really been that active (painting wise) the last couple of months, and for that I am sorry :(

Hopefully a new year will get me back on the track.

- but have done a few Pickford pieces:

A WKmnis: Dwarf Pistolier




A converted White Knight dwarf. Tuned him into a "do you feel lucky" kind of guy for a painting challenge at powerfist.dk.


And for the latest Brush Slave Challenge at Chaos Dwarfs On-line I did this little goblin. A gem from my impressive John Pickford-collection :-)

Sneaky Santa




Wish you all a
Merry Christmas

And a small teaser of what I'll be doing in 2012. It's has just been confirmed that this guy is now in the post (for me):



A Pickford Sci Fi Lizardman ;)

First, must be stress cause this was supposed to get posted in here:  http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=30453.0 - but apparently I posted in here  ???

And thanks WK. Need a bulb of green stuff to get the pistol hand right, but else very smooth and easy. Love your multi part dwarfs for their compatibility. So easy putting together.

Yes, a private venture for a club tournament, but perhaps make contact with "exoditejon". He might still have a few spares ;)
