Brattish authority - Leader and Juve

Painting is like riding a bike it seems, it comes back pretty rapidly even after a long pause. To get a bit of motivation back I had put all chances on my side though : Goodwin models, a sculptor I enjoy and whose work I'm familiar working with, Confrontation models, one of my first loves and limited edition ones on top of that. 

Well it worked out exactly like planned for once. Pleasure was here. Oh yeah , sweeet sweeeeeet pleasure, my hair caressing their... erm... Good fun, if you see what I mean.

On top of that, my recent Shadow wars campaign had taught me I needed some reinforcements for the Bratts since any casuatty was putting me in a difficult position with just enough models to make a team.

Now the first of them is obviously a leader, perhaps one of the best looking of the unreleased models in the whole Bratt line. If it wasn't for the very peculiar combi pistol, it's a perfect model really.

His friend is more of a Juve. The sketches published for the bratts seem to point this model is a Fright Knight :

And although it was quite tempting to paint it as Boy George after getting very inspired by Adam Ant, I opted for a more hip hop flat top to avoid any resemblance with Bart simpson.

I also like to paint models I don't know well as I get to discover little details like the Karate hand protection on the Juve (painted with a flame pattern for extra street cred) and plenty of small jewels and ribbons everywhere on the leader.

The band is now 6 models strong with still opportunities to add more models from my Helmawr gang and all so I'm quite happy with it really.

Let's try and harness this renewed motivation into something constructive !
