The Ikwen are an Alien race designed by Loud Ninja Games and then sold by 15mm.co.uk miniatures. I bought the three available sets of this creatures and I continued my long-time-delayed 15mm project. I should have more of them finished today, along with more of the GZG Crusties.







There are more pictures and close ups on my blog, here and here.

Cheers.

Great painting, the dappled markings work really well.

Wow.  You have mad skills my friend.  Always nice to "discover" a new 15 mm master :)

Edit: you're the guy who did the Gone With the Wind minis!  I remember those, loved em!

 :o I also love the dappled effect. I never am able to think of such creative paint schemes. I also like the chipped paint.

Those are amazing, and I really like your eyes in particular.

I was thinking I might go for a cooler overall colour scheme for mine, maybe blue skin. But now after yours I think maybe leaning more warm is the right idea, though still with blue and green as important parts. But these are jaw-droppingly well done.

These are brilliant - the dappling is so good.

Thanks! It feels like I painted them ages ago!! My daughter had just been born back then and I don't remember anything other than the lack of sleep!! o_o

Glad to see you back  :)
