Interesting match up!  lol
Probably should have mentioned in the title, the grenadiers are 15mm.

15mm or not ... your minis are fully clothed ...  o_o


@ 15mm
I painted some Corvus Belly figs for DBA - you did a good job! I wish, mine would have turned out that well up that close!

@ naked men
cool! Now I know, if I will be grey "down there" later, too ^^

Somehow I have an idea about a special round for LPL8 ... only naked models  lol

So, DK - not voting for scantily clad ladies last round, but voting for naked men in this round?  Is there something you're not telling us?  lol

If we do, I might prefer the fairer sex for the subject matter.

They're from Pulp Figures, Neanderthal Warriors 2. If you find skin a challenge to paint well - and I do - these are a great exercise in expanding your painting skill.

The Grenadiers are spectacular for 15mm; I'm pretty sure I'm not brave enough to post close-ups that tight of the various 15mm I've painted over the years!

An all-naked round in a future LPL would be amusing, but aside from cavemen and the occasional berserk it would be hard to find figures, I'd think...

Yeah, I think any scale other than 28mm should probably be mentioned. Otherwise, your skill at painting smaller figs may be overlooked...

Those Hanoverians look very good! From the picture alone I wouldn't have guessed they are 15mm... Good to mention that. Well done! The neandertalls are neatly painted and well bases with all the rocks added. What are you planning on using them for?

Pulp lunacy - we do a lot of Lost World stuff, dinosaurs and such running around. Now that I have these guys done, and some others, I've finally got enough Neanderthals to put a good size warband on the table.

I may be remembered badly for saying this...but...

It is wicked fun to paint a bunch of tiny dinks on model cavemen! I chuckled my way through these very same models...kept the shaman aside though, as I thought he would make a good drunken (with the addition of a beer can in his hand...) naked Rasta guy for a possible future LPL entry that I may call "The Dirty Party"...assuming that an 'all nude' round crops up in the next LPL that is...obviously I am also in favour of this idea...and well done Wirelizard, you get my vote for the pepper pubes! Brilliant!
