Re: 2011 Staff Challenge!!!
Those look really good, Jim.
One thing... I was admiring the blonde beard on the cannon crewman, so I enlarged the photo to peek at it.
I noticed that your cannonball carrier has flesh colored eyebrows.
It won't matter on the field, of course. I just wanted to point it out in case you hadn't noticed and it mattered.

looks like I have a quick project...
EDIT: after I posted that and went into the basement to find the dwarf cannoneer.. we lost power. 8+ hours later and we have power back with the house freezing cold, and the first thought in my head.. "Finish the dwarf!" .. it's a sickness...
EDIT AGAIN: Captain Angry Eyebrows has been re-done..
2+2=5 for sufficiently large values of 2.

Re: 2011 Staff Challenge!!!
Points updated! porksulime boots the intrepid Norseman down to third place and imp522 stretches his lead out even further. Can anyone catch him? I wouldn't bet on it!
And just to liven up my humble home at 4th place.... here's a whopping 4 points!
I've always loved Averland and their, (unfortunately deceased,) mad-as-a-hatter Elector Count. (My guess was always syphilis.) The paint scheme is definitely not for the faint of heart, but I REALLY like the looks of these guys all decked out in yellow and black.

Re: 2011 Staff Challenge!!!
A little bit taller than a space marine but not as wide. No idea how they would work next to the DE Sslyth guys but if you get them and don't like them will work a deal for them if you want so your not stuck with them.MagickalMemories wrote:

GW doesn't make a model for the Sslyth yet. That's why I was looking at proxies (if I go that direction).
Your info helps. Thanks!

Sometimes I wish I wasn't so damn ana l about my painting. I am 99% done my tanks but still need to get that effect I am looking for. I wasn't getting it with JUST washes so I broke out the chalks and dusts, which of course takes FOREVER. I was supposed to be done these a month ago.

Points updated and 10 High Elf Archers from me! Picture came out a little blurry.
Yes, I'm just flitting from army to army and painting small amounts of figures for each before I roll back to the start and do it all over again. Takes forever, but it's the way I am. (For those unaware, I have MADD. M.iniature A.ttention D.efecit D.isorder. Nothing to do with drinking, driving, or angry mothers.)
