Thanks for the supportive replies guys.

Lovely stuff!

How do you get such a clean white with good depth?

Brilliant! Cheers for the advice Jeff. I'll give it a try and see how it goes.

More civilian types for DrDeath, plenty here now to populate a small settlement. Mark will finish them off with some suitable basing I imagine.

I love those civilians! I need more myself for a Song of Drums and Tomahawks scenario we're going to run at conventions in 2017. I will have to look into picking some of those up. AND stealing your color schemes... lol

Fantastic job!

In the age of the internet it always baffles me that some manufacturers don't have a pic on their website of pack contents the moment it is released.  These days it is often a case a no pic, no sale.  It is unusual for a consumer to buy anything sight unseen.

I do that all the time Mike :)

Photographing a whole range of figures must involve a lot of work, a good idea I see with a lot of manufacturers now is to have a customer gallery which has to be the next best thing.
