I really can't help, but often simply marvel at all the miniatures I am finding here at LAM!! THANXX!!

Say, where are these "Mid-Norian" highlanders from?

They are part of the Relics range by Tor Gaming.
Some great, albeit different, figures in amongst that lot. :)

They are indeed the Highlanders from the Britanan Army in the Relics range.  I think their Britanans are great little figures.  Some of the Nuem range and most Vaettir range appeal too.  They've recently released some awesome Crabmen too.

Can you tell me where those Party Peeps come from. I would like to get a few of those.

Wonderful brushwork here today.

Those little guys are indeed very weird, lovely 8) And the paintjob really does them credit, it brings out their character very well!

The Highlanders are gloriously weird. I tripped over the site that sells them a while back, and was tempted to get a warband or two of them to add weirdness to our occasional fantasy skirmish games!

The Bolshies are great, but it looks like the camera is focusing past the figures, on that crack in the wall! Broonkah, try moving the camera back a bit from the figures - most point-and-shoot autofocus cameras (like the one I use) have a minimum focus distance of about 30cm/12". Moving back will help with the depth of field issues, too. The other thing I'd suggest is using a sheet of paper or card as a background - I made up a set of coloured gradient backgrounds that I use regularly for my own photography.
