Well done on the internal lighting, very believable. Are these part of a set? I missed the announcement...

Part of their Empire of the Dead range. I don't really know what it's all about to be honest though. These were commissions so I just did some colouring in without looking too much at WW's fluff.  :)

Very nice. I don't think I've ever seen plaid done like that before. It looks great.  :-*

Excellent.   :)

Tell me please about the casting quality?  West Wind are often "rough" but these look good.  Wonder who sculpted them?

Castings were ok, a bit rough in places but not too much hassle to clean up.

Very nicely done. I really like those figures from Westwind (Watson in particular).

Really fantastic; the lighting, the subtle "weave" of the plaids, everything.
