Greetings

very difficult, this one.
The cultists have something.. a (b)rashness ..the way they are waiting. The totem is mesmerizing I think. My eyes always wander to the "eye-gems".
The DAK is top-notch. Clean crisp colors. I'm not overly fond with the helmet color. Personally I find them too yellowish. And too clean. Still.. a very good, nay magnificient job

Thumbs up and good luck to both of you

Those DAK look great. The paintjob really brings out all the details very well.

I recognise the cultist with the hooks, but I can't remember who makes them...

Raz> the cultists are Heresy Dark Brethren: http://heresyminiatures.com/shop/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=1_9_35&zenid=053daa7dd32988c5dc62c011b29761ce

Great models and these paint jobs suit them very well! The banner is lovely too. The DAK are great too Blue, are they 20mm models?

Wow!  Those cultists look great...it's a perfect color scheme for the figures and the banner is superb.

My DAK are 25mm from Battle Honors...nicely detailed for their
Size...though they seemed tiny in comparison to my usual 28mm heroic scale figs.

Thanks for the kind words all.

Nice work both of you!

I have some of those cultists in my Genestealer cult so have quite a soft spot for the minis - the paint job is excellent too.

Lovely work on those Germans though Blue - I bet they did seem like tiddlers compared to the usual Marauder fare!

No fantasy from you Blue? What is happening :P Still a nice an crisp entry.

Those are some wicked looking cultists. You did a great job on those and make me want some as well!
Why aim for gold if you can get lead?
