Fancied a change and hadn't been able to get anywhere near these minis, so made a space and sat down with them. Lovely minis, no messing about trying to figure out whats what, a joy to paint!!! The one with the big axe (on the left) still reminds me of Brian Blessed tho. The far right one is from the multi pack.

Excellent bunch here! The blues are fantastic--smoooooth blending, especially on the shields.

Lovely blue bru! Are the bases painted on? It always amazes me how fast you crack out minis!

Cheers.
I get very bored with minis very quickly, so more a case of get them done with a nice job, or see them standing for ages half done. Spent all day Saturday, and all of Britains full of no talent, and then the best part of this morning (Tues), so not my quickest. I certainly couldn't take weeks over one mini like Tim, it would drive me insane!!
The bases are precast, but very shallow cast, which made painting them a doddle.

Very nice! I also really like the bright blue Metallics look very good, so do the bases.

They look good now they are finished, I think the browns could come up a tad further as they don't pop as much as the blues and the mail. I take longer to paint minis true but then I don't have alot of time (usually) and have to paint around work, that said there is nothing wrong with taking time "a job worth doing, is worth doing well".

I meant nothing by using you as an example, just merely stating that if I took more than a couple of days I get bored and not finish. The standard of your minis is reflected in the amount of time you spend on them, which is very high.

Sorry bad day yesterday and I was a little uptight and it just hit me the wrong way.
