The last 4 bearers - especially the pair with ivory - seem to have large facial scars. The shading is a bit dark. It works nice on the breast, though. The exception is Taha.

Prof - Great game in Berlin!  Driscole's rules worked perfectly!  Your figures look even better in real life!  We should do it again sometime.

Question - what colours and highlights do you use for the African skintones?

Thanks, Dominic! Well, the game was great, well-balanced and  fluently; Driscoles has done good job on the rules!

The colours are Plaka Dark Brown and VMC Ivory

Thanks for the report and the pics! I wish I could've been there to participate. :cry: Too much work these days, but I hope I will be able to see some of these minis in 2007 at the Tactica or the Do or Dice.
