I don't see any Arthur Rackham influence there... just the usual GW template orcs and goblins.

I'm guessing he means these guys:

...but the link on that page goes nowhere useful.

I hope these figures remain for sale I brought some earlier this year and they are fantastic, well sculpted and cast and really nice people to deal with.

Gave Neotacha everything they made for Christmas (about six or seven sculpts).  Good thing, since they seem gone.  Hopefully just  a temporary looking-for-a-web-home problem. They are gorgeous sculpts.  She spent over an hour trying to track them down this morning, with no joy (and her web-foo is much better than mine).

Darn, darn, darn!  I do hope they're just temporarily missing.  The stuff Michael gave me is gorgeous and I am looking forward to painting them.  Just the thing to get me back into painting semi-regularly (as opposed to not at all).

So do I try to match the Rackham colors or forge my own path, paint-wise, since I only have the single set to play with?

Forge your own path,I'm sure you have an good eye,makes the figures more personal; or am I writing complete rubbish?
