Hi guys !

Some models from the Rackham range I did some time ago. I just love those models inspired from the Paul Bonner's illustrations; big torsos, little legs, big feet and funny faces. It was also undeniable to paint them in ocre/flesh colors. :)

Thanks for watching.

Awesome! I really like the non-green skin colour. It fits them realy well.

Also, I'm a big fan of just about the entire Confrontation line (right up till they went prepainted plastics that is... ::) ), so seeing some of those minis painted to  an excellent standard is always good in my book  :)
Miniatures you say? Well I too, like to live dangerously...

Moar brilliance!  8)

I love the fact that you have also used the subdued checkered pattern the studio paintjobs often sported. Always been a fan of that...

If I could point out just one point that I feel could be improved upon though, it would be the basing; I think adding some static grass or tufts would really make these guys pop and do the paintjobs the justice that they deserve. :)

I still have a bag of Goblins lying around somewhere. In some point I'll paint them as I LOVE the Confro style. Your minis turned out very nicely and I like the comic book style you employ. The skin tones are much better than the traditional orc green and I like how much work you invested to bring out the details. Keep them coming!

I do have a soft spot in my heart for Goblins, but, even considering that, I think your BEAUTIFULLY painted Goblins are the FINEST pieces you have done thus far. I love the nose treatment & the tattoos. GREAT WORK!
