HRH Victoria (Steampunk) ... Lor' Bless 'Er
« on: May 13, 2016, 04:08:35 PM »
Here's Wargames Illustrated's latest 'Giants in Miniature' model, Her Imperial Majesty, Victoria Regina. "Hip! Hip! Replacement!"

I can now confirm I have had the rare honour of giving Queen Victoria a pearl necklace.

Groooan!  lol

Absolutely glorious painting, though. Too bad they didn't go for a Koh-i-noor-powered light amplification cannon thingy.

Yeah, I've painted up a few of their models for them (including this one). I've been sitting on the pics until they decided to release them.

Great paintwork champion effort!

Not a figure I'll be picking up but well sculpted.

Cheers!
