Hmm, I do have the Near Eastern flesh palette... might have to give that one a try.  I have 6 more goblins based and ready for priming before I sign off on this project for the time being.

I can't believe how long I have neglected this thread!  Well, no more (for now at least!)

I recently got my little hands on some samples of the Westfalia halflings, and finally finished the job on them this past weekend.  I did a little writeup on the blog about them, but to summarize they were very easy to work with, the resin was of great quality, and they paint up really nicely!





I decided that the leader would be a shoe-in (or should I say shoeless-in?) Tyrion Lannister.  If only there was an unhelmeted version bearing the likeness of Peter Dinklage...

Hope you like them, there are a few more pictures over at the blog

Looking forward to the Kickstarter in the next couple weeks!

Very nice - that is a nice rich red you've painted.

You've done a wonderful job painting those hobbits! The colours are lovely.

Thanks, guys!  I think the Lannister colour scheme fits the halflings quite well.  ;)

I think so too. I also like that you used color on some of the armor. You've got a nice balance of color & metal.

Once again this year I participated in the Pleasant Surprise exchange over on the Warhammer Empire forum.  Every year it seems harder for me to find the time to create a nice surprise with my growing list of adult responsibilities, but I managed to paint up a figure this year nonetheless.  My recipient received his figure this past week, so I figured it was a good enough time to post some photos here.

I chose one of my favourite Empire figures from the 90's - a hero with sword and pistol.  I remember seeing him painted up in the army book when I was a kid, and I always wanted one.  Well, as a grown-up collector, I have managed to find one and even had a spare who is now with his new owner.





There are a few more pics up over at my blog
