Voodoo, Gents and the Ape man
« on: October 16, 2012, 12:39:12 AM »
Lots of miscellanea finished this week:

First, the Baron Savoodie with Priestesses from Westwind:

Second, Jeff Valent Studio's has seven Victorian civilian characters - here's the menfolk:

Finally, from the old Ral Partha Ravenloft range is an interesting character named Frantisek Markov:

"One of My Men Became Restless" focuses on 15mm Horse & Musket periods and 25mm Horse & Musket, Fantasy, Horror and Victorian everything! Occasionally there'll be stuff of related interest but it's mostly a painters blog.  See it all here: http://flashman14.blogspot.com/

Great stuff!
I especially like that 'apeman of the opera'  :D

Frantisek Markov is a supercool mini. I love the way youve painted him, the red on the inside of the coat, the white shirt, his face. Absolutely fantastic..you make me want this mini.

The sickle in the fruitful field;
The sword he sung a song of death,
But could not make the sickle yield."

Beautiful work! Great brushwork!

Did you buy the Jeff Valiant miniatures recently? I heard he was out of business?

I've never seen those Westwind minis painted before. They looked a little funky on the website, but they look great here!

The Ral Partha miniature was a great find. I love him, of course your paint job helps though!

That Frantisek Markov is almost too weird not to buy! Nice job.
I am looking for the following Deadlands minis:  Shotgun Thug, Lost Soul, Cleaners, Railroad Workers & Feral Dead. If you have any of these minis, or if you are one, please send me a PM.

Thanks all!
I bought the Valent figs at Historicon a few years ago. A cursory look online reveals a lot of dead ends though now ...

My thoughts as well - never liked them from the picture on the WW website but look much better with a lick of paint.
