Barbars and fighters and dwarfs... oh my!
« on: 22 January 2013, 08:31:06 PM »
I finished these as part of a commission:









Some Red Box Games barbarians, really nice to paint.





A couple of Privateer Press types. Utter pain in the nethers. Hated doing em.

And this wee fella for myself:





A Hasslefree feudal dwarf.

Hope you likes.  :)

One & all BEAUTIFULLY painted & based...the one you did for yourself, of course, is The Best of the lot. VERY WELL DONE!

Whoever is receiving these treasures should be one happy Dude...or Dame.

Painting minis for yourself?! You lazy so-and-so! ;) They are all great looking, but I find it hard to stomach the Privateer stuff. The Tre Manor stuff is great though! Especially the helmeted fellows.

The Privateer stuff looks like shite (the models not the pjs, you understand), but everything else had me slathering like a pervert in a playground.

On another note: did you ever finish the Chaos warband?

The Beasts one? Nah, not yet. Got sidetracked by shiny things and babies and paying work. Still got warbands for Tzeench, Nurgle, Slaanesh, Malal and generic Cultists to do as well - all of the figures, none of the time!  ;D

Hope you got paid well.  Those are great paint jobs.

It's amazing how the smaller Red Box Games figures usually have more detail than the larger heroic figures and paint up even better.

Why are the PP models a pain to paint?
