Thank you everyone for the welcome back.

I actually rather enjoyed painting these. The quartered dress is a take on Mary Quant/60s fashion. It nearly didn't happen as I had a bit of a varnish failure, but a change to Daler-Rowney (having read advice on the forum) sorted them out.

Hopefully a few more 7TV minis to come in the next few days.

L-R: Copplestone Babe with guns, Evil Genius, converted Akula Assault Trooper (Crooked Dice balaclava head & gun)

Beautiful brushwork, mate.

You are certainly back in the groove now.

I like the idea with the AKULA/CD conversion.
I have a few ideas for my AKULA security troopers in a similar vein.
They mix so well .

That's the general plan, trying to keep motivated and painting. I think the conversion makes an excellent assassin. The face also off-sets the very dark clothing well.

Yes, I'm really pleased how it came out. Its actually 2 different highlights; grey for the armour and very dark blue for the under-suit. They picture has washed out a bit of the contrast between the two.

Foundry Rawhide (11) triad. I'm rubbish at colours and mixing my own, so mostly use Foundry paints these days.

Oooh yes, very nice indeed!

Is the building mojo creeping back too?

Just found this thread and have to say I'm simply in awe of your work sir!!!

The paintworks are nice, crisp and very colourful, very difficult to pick a favourite

.

I have been looking at CD and 7TV, your post is one more in the "buy that, and that... oh cool got to have THAT" and feel that my bank account is going to cry soon

!!!

Great painting, I love the cigar toting fellow and the head conversion is very clever, I almost missed what you used as the base figure.
