Paint Table Saturday#80


Back to the 'Warlord Games' Clubmen after the welcomed distraction that was the Rastafarian survivor from 'East Street Games' new Bullet & Brains range - now available to order!


Having already prepared these, I shall refrain from banging on again about the quality of the casting, but look to the positives, particularly the wonderfully characterful sculpts. I also need to add at this point that I have been hugely influenced by the tremendous work of 'Stone Cold Lead' in fact much of the colour palate is lifted directly from his versions, they really are sublime.

What I hadn't realised when assembling the team was just how many follicly challenged men were in the club! For the life of me, I can't remember if the pack came with alternative headwear or if you had to buy these as an optional extra from 'Warlord Games'* but given that I sport a similar hairstyle, I have a certain sympathy for these chaps!

*I suspect the latter!

  1. Very nice work Michael! Warlord indeed seems to have quite a bit of variety in the quality of castings. But I guess that will happen when you've brought in multiple different miniature ranges by different sculptors and with some pretty old ranges too.

  3. Terrific stuff Michael. I can see why you 'borrowed' the paint scheme as they look lovely and very characterful. They'll look awesome as a unit when you've finished them all :-)

  19. Nice palette as usual. Cheeky pose on the 'finger up his nose' figure. Nice to see humour on a sculpted piece.
