This is one of those threads I look at time and again and each time I notice something new. It's about time to say that I really enjoy looking at the minis and the presentation. Well done.

I like them a lot, very well done. Particularly the way the pallette and painting style make the group cohesive, something I wouldn't have thought possible given the age and style differences in the sculpts.

Cheers!

Not pleased with the photos at all - but here's a few more that made some kind of cut - a blunt, rusty one.

A Dimspur Gambler, always more dangerous than meets the eye:



Squire Branflower, Sopwith (in the rear as usual), and the mendicant of the White Lady, Lavender:



The gambler is another C-series halfling that got a little taller. The pants could use more work, I realize, but it demonstrates the principle. Lavender is great old citadel cleric, painted almost in monotone, something I'm drawn towards more and more.

You'll have to stay tuned for most of "The Doom" part of this thread, I'm afraid. But here's a couple tidbits.

Thugs of the Irondrake forest, worshippers of dark forces:



And some of their "changed" allies:



@Marine0846: The impetus for this project was the start of an old-school d&d game. But I picked up the new D&D boardgames shortly after (now three of them!), and that provided a lot of new plastic to experiment on, as well as a measurable goal - get satisfactory versions of all the monsters needed for the game. I've almost succeeded!

If I had more time and the right opponents, I might use Dave King's Skulldred rules - top notch.

Everything shown here is pure gold!
It's as if I've gone back in time to the early days of citadel....

I'm really loving these miniatures. It's only in the last two years that I've been painting miniatures for a classic D&D style game. Whenever I see these old Citadel minis it's the first time, because I didn't collect fantasy miniatures before. Now I'm insanely jealous of all of you who have them. I'm also impressed with the great results you get out of them. My hat is off to you sir.
