Sorry about the pictures just been informed it's a quirk of the forum when you post pictures directly,rather than use photo bucket .Which is odd as it only seems to effect pictures from my iPad and not my android tablet and phone.But it clearly shows What I don't know,better ask my children .
These are projects where I try and limit time or colours .or try out different painting styles and methods.
Most of my personal collection is older figures as I have little love current sculpting .Only because it's what I see all day long,and feel a older figures can be quite a refreshing change,when it's bits for my own collection.
Mark.

I'm really quite fond of the older figure, I like the sculpting style. True some are almost unrecognizable but there are a lot of very nice classic mini's to be found. I really like your treatment of them some great painting there.

That expedition fellow at the top, he one of yours as well?

Thanks ,Matt

Although it's very similar to my style it isn't by me.This is a very rare citadel/GW figure designed for (if I remember rightly) a TSR.in 1986.

It was from the Citadel Gothic Horror range...still full of some classics that stand up today.

Well I was half right

it's scarey how many of those I've got floating around the van.whats worse I can remember buying the explorer and putting the other one back because I didn't like the head and buying the paranoia figures instead.

(It was nearly thirty years ago.) Mark.

Thought I was going to make it but got my weekends mixed up and am on night shift. Have fun

Well the explorer has many comparable figures... the two hobos from that range are sublime though. Damn!

Rather than answer the pm's.No I can't tell you where you can get the dwarf banners.They are hand Drawn I Do Not Over Paint Transfers/ Or Pre bought Banners!
Here are three different methods for Banners none of which should take more than an Hour.
Mark.
Same your working this weekend.Im hoping for a good show.I'll be dropping of the new drop Shute and canisters / wicker drop hampers.
Fram, there are few similar figures I'm still looking for the Charlie Chan,for one.
Mark.

Here's a few of the ships hanging around my workshop that people have noticed in the background of other topics and asked to see.

Plus my basic pulp trawler/coastal puffer.
And my ever increasing pulp Air Fleet.

I've managed to work myself into a corner,so I spent a couple of hours this afternoon rooting through my bit box and painted these old Partizan freebies while my work dried.
