Likewise, I think they are excellent! I particularly like the effort put into the Queen's dress to show the pattern in the material.  :)

impressive, not only the paintjob, but also the miniatures

Red: I've noticed that on your blog you have written:

The wip shows the first layer of sealer applied, I submerge the figures completely
in acrylic sealer. After 24 hours I repeat the process. Wait another 24 hours and apply some gloss varnish. Finally I matt the figures.

since I've never worked with acrylic sealer, what is the gain of using it? and is there a hobby version of it or is it something you only buy at art shops?
can you do this process with rainy weather or a high level of humidity?
and if you submerge the miniatures how do you remove the excess sealant?

thanks
Cheers,
Pedro

Look for a product called  'Klear' by Johnson it's used for putting on floors, they've stopped selling it in the UK but you may be able to get it in Portugal. Use it in any weather, and you remove the excess by just shaking it off, it works the same as acrylic varnish.
You can brush or spray it on, it's actually just easier to dip the figure into a container though :)
