The assembled gang! |
I. Love. These. Figures!! I think that some people might find them perhaps a little caricatured, but I just reckon they are bursting with character and were an absolute joy to paint. The detail is just right for my style of painting: not too detailed but not too bland either. All told, I'm delighted with these and will definitely be painting up more. I actually have the Chinese Ghosts pack to do next and then I'll be trying a wee adaptation of 7th Voyage to play a 'Mr. Vampire' game. So stay tuned for that and rest assured that holding your breath will feature heavily! :)
Lovely figures, as always. I particularly like the flame effects, both in the lantern and on the torch.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I was quite pleased how the lamp and torch came out. I was briefly tempted to try some OSL on these, but came to my senses! :)
DeleteVery nice painting. I had not seen those figures before. I do like chinese vampires. When channel 4 was in its infancy it used to run late night series of Chinese Ghost/Vampire films and the more light hearted kung fu films. Loved them. Never seen most of them again.
ReplyDeleteThanks, moonshadow. It's exactly that season of Chinese Ghost Stories on Channel 4 when I saw Mr Vampire and other good stuff like Zu Warriors. But I loved Mr Vampire the most so these minis were a must. You should check out the range. I've also picked up the Monkey pack which is just ace.
