It's true they ar ea bit generic (that was intended) but they paint well. It' the reason why I chose to paint him an enameled armour to change a little. With tartan, it helps to bring another dimension to the sculpt I think rather than satying on a steel armour with a green cloak.<br /><br />If the challenge was about 40k I would probably have gone for a genestealer myself.<br /><br />Thanks a lot Ed.Asslessmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09475252828835332056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2221418482531324115.post-9456305263488198012015-01-21T02:40:15.274+01:002015-01-21T02:40:15.274+01:00He's a better fig than I thought.

Don't know what I'd go for that I hadn't painted ever previously. Probably a skaven or a genestealer.Shaitanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06133644752973972045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2221418482531324115.post-31701289989401408572015-01-20T16:22:00.513+01:002015-01-20T16:22:00.513+01:00Of course he will, I'm just trying to pretend ...Of course he will, I'm just trying to pretend there's challenge here out of respect for my Bro Crooks but for real this will be one huge one sided massacre.
