Do you folks know you classics and are able to tell me where those 2 guys originate from ?



If you can't, I really think you have some catching up ahead...

One of my favourite films, coupled with great paintwork - what's not to like?

A bit of tongue in cheek can't be bad (depending on whose tongue and cheek) right ?

Drat.  I was hoping someone had finally done a set of actual Rocky Horror figs.  Maybe it's just as well, painting fishnets on all the finale sculpts would drive me mad.

Well, madder.  :)

Fishnets on 28mm models... ^^'

Now I'll have something that hopefully turns you a little les on than fishnets : skeletons

I've just finished this pair of pirate sculpted by Tim Prow and sold by Vialudibunda :



There are 4 more to paint and I have to say I've really enjoyed this couple.

@Deafnala : Thank you very much Sir !

So all these undead and vampires had to lead to thi point. You knew it was going to go this way. Wolves, Undead ones. Twice cursed animals.




I've written the (very simple) painting recipe in the blogpost for those who're interested in such things. ;)

For a quick job they look really good, and so multi-use too.
I love the way you do those glowing eyes.

Yesterday, we sat at our respective desks with friends and did a video chat. Nothing unusual so far. But we used this opportunity to paint a model each in a single session with our WORST brush just to see if we'd be able to replicate those PRO PAINTED models you see on ebay and the likes...

Here's the poor night goblin I painted and the brush I used :

You know, there are people who cannot paint like that even if they got the best brushes in the world ( like me, e.g. )  :'(.

OK, here's something a bit different with a couple of Characters from the eternal champion saga : Corum and Jhary. I have to say I really fancy Corum as a character and Jhary is just as excellent. I kept things as close to what I imagine they must be like from my memories without trying to fin a totally different take on them.



More about them on the blog as usual.
