Very nice paintjobs Silversixx. Don't expect such brushwork from me! They look like very characterful figures, which your own brushwork has brought out very well.

Thanks guys, you truly humble me! :)
And now I'm inspired enough to start with the rest of the stuff! Just need to find a suitable background :)

Really lovely stuff. Love the figures but the boat really is the biz.
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

FUCK!
The soft detailed bastards known as wargames factory zombies just ruined everything! I applied a basecoat, and the a wash. After two thin highlights I realised that I barely saw anything of the model anymore >:( >:(
Bastards!
This has really affected my will to do anything about this project :(

Great work on those Glenns.
About the zombies, there are other brands of zombies are there not? (not my zon of interest so I dont really know).

But those zombies with bad soft details must surly be becouse of their bloated bodies in contact with water all of the time?  ;)

Silversixx; I've had a similar experience with my WF vixens; the undercoat took away a lot of surface detail. Not sure what else to do other than push on!

Cheers! :)
There's the studio miniature version that Raxxus pointed out. But, they seem hard to get unless you've supported the kick start :/
Of course they'll go soft in the water :D But, I need somewhere to put the highlight unless I want it to look like a mediocre Dalimore attempt :)

I think that they're still to be released for the general masses. I haven't seen a review of them yet though. It might be the same problem :(

I did push on. Cursing, cursing and angry. It turned out alright if you look at the mini from about 30 metres or so lol

Re-reading my quote it sounds like I was telling you to push on; what I meant to say was I wasn't sure what to do other than push on! Apologies for the lazy writing. I'm not happy at all with the zombies but there's no time to do anything different. I also made the mistake of trying to do some online research of skin colour for bodies in water; not a good idea. More than I needed to know really!

No worries Elk, I got the meaning fine :)
And I did avoid doing any research. My mate works a rescue diver and do sometime swim down to retrieve people. Got enough horror stories about which part to grab to avoid limbs getting torn off o_o
