I only wish you would start to paint eyes :)

People who paint eyes are bound for hell. It's in the bible.

I must admit I never noticed that you didn't paint eyes, clearly not a necessary part for your figures.

It's a craft paint, Anita's acrylic, 'Ocean Blue' - I use it a lot. Most Anita's acrylics are kind of thin, glutinous paints, but this is a particularly nice colour and I've stuck with it  ;)

Captain Blood;
You are indeed an artist. Each figure you paint is a tiny little masterpiece. I would just love so see these figures used in a game...that I could partake in...I am so impressed!!

Thanks for sharing.
Regards,
Hitman

Those are really beautiful painted miniatures.
I just continued painting my Zulus and used your color scheme they look better. I also overwork my old painted too. Better result.

Oh cr*p!… I’m doomed! :D

Seriously really great paint job on these Richard 8)

The figures are a mix of Front Rank and North Star right?
