Are they warlord ecw plastics or are they all metal..?

They were metal... horribly cast metal in some cases... [shudders]... the horror...

Superb artwork  :-* Love the figures too, I'll have to look into outpost.

You guys are too kind!  :)

I did the miniature because I REALLY wanted a hand crossbow wielding bounty hunter. It all started with me seeing the Bounty Hunter sculpt by Martin Baker from Black Cat Bases in the Legends of the High Seas book and I totally fell for the Pact of the Wolves style of that figure. I then stumbled across Outpost Wargame Services (thanks to someone's post here on LAF) and I was blown away to see a full range of Highwaymen by the very same sculptor. Since then I wanted to have more of those hooded tricorne wearing gangsters...

Now that I have that figure I don't really need anything that urgently. I had planned to do a second sculpt - a Jester - but since those two cool Jesters from LAM have been released I have enough of those too. Simon has been incredibly encouraging though and it's really awesome to see the figure painted by his talented fingers so maybeee. But damn, I need to keep cracking on that never ending gaming board project of mine first...  ::)

Lastly: Man, those figures are so gorgeous, Simon! I can't wait to see the... shht! ...

Jesters!!

Two more done. I don't think these two sculpts are quite as good as the others but they painted up nice enough.

Those look gorgeous!

I like the look of the sculpts.
They are pretty quirky.

Great paintjob as usual. The figures seems to be ok, only the boots are a little rough...

I think all your minis just 'happen' to paint up nice! ;) I've got a feeling you could paint up a turd and it'd look good!!!

Finished a couple of LAM jesters as part of this lot and I also decided to snap a quick pic of all the highwaymen types while I had the camera out.





Thanks for the comments everyone  :)

Wow!

True art and a perfect guide for my own feeble attempts in painting
