Parrot men of Venus
« on: November 28, 2013, 11:30:48 PM »
After playing a VSF game at BLAM I have decided to try and get back into painting VSF figures.

I am going to run with the Venus setting. I already have British and Chinese that I can use. I have the start of a Captain Nemo army and have now decided to add some local natives.

Enter the Parrot men





I now only have another 43 to build and paint :'(

What he said.

I wonder if Parrot Men will be able to "hold their own"? ;) lol

Lovely brushwork.  ;D

No you don't have Venusians, you've got a Norwegian Blue Parrot, and just as Monty Python are about to get back together.

If I was painting alien parrot men I would get busy with some of that tasty luminous paint from vellejo!

If you fancy having a go at that, Colin, I have some Foundry luminous pots somewhere.
