« on: 05 October 2008, 10:16:28 AM »
I tried new paint job to one of my blokes.Gone for a 'crow' look.I don't usually do film heroes but this miniatures pose seemed to suit the charactor.See what you folks think? Have a great week everybody.

One of my most well used quotes from the film. Very nice, where's the miniature from?

Yes, very well done! I like the way you've done the base too, very atmospheric and fits the mood of the Crow perfectly. A nice standard green and brown one would not have worked as well.

I'd like one of those figures myself.  :)

It can´t rain all the time...

Obviously, you´ve never been to Münster. lol

A great take on the topic. I particularly like how the figure and the base work together for that overall grisly feel.

Thanks for the comments.The miniature is from the Iron Kingdoms characters range.Had to lob off some shoulder pads and file down the shoulders themselves but not to messy really.I kept the base simple and subdued too.Glad you like him. ;)

The mini is the Ex-Merc from the Iron Kingdoms line produced from Privateer Press. Follow the link and scroll down a bit. :-)

Nor where I live, you'd think it was a stereotypical England or something with all the rain.

Nice miniature, really captures the whole feel of him.
