Just the briefest of posts today to publicly thank Curtis Campbell Esq. for this rather splendid Witchfinder that has travelled all the way from the snowy wastes of Canada. Curt has a long held tradition of thanking those foolish, brave enough to take on the role of Minion during the 'Analogue Hobbies Annual Painting Challenge', by presenting them with a miniature, painted by his good self.
Well it goes without saying that I was absolutely thrilled to receive such a little gem as this, made all the more special by the lovely card that accompanied it - thank you Curt!
The spectre that is the start of the new academic year has loomed into view and with the release of the public examination results, real life is demanding a fair bit of my time of late, that said, I am hopeful to catch up again with all things hobby related before too long.
Oh the joys of clearing. Lovely work by Curt
ReplyDeleteShhh! Don't say the "S" word!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful gift for your help, hope all goes well with work, and you and the good lady aren't too snowed under
ReplyDeleteWhat a great looking figure, he'll fit in perfect with your troops!
ReplyDeleteVery cool figure - and very kind of Curt. BTW, GW used to a similar figure in resin https://wabcorner.blogspot.com/2013/06/whfb-empire-witch-hunter.html Not sure if they still carry him though.
ReplyDeleteThat is a very generous gift from Curt and a fantastic figure as well as being well painted, I can see why you are chuffed with it.
ReplyDeleteDo you know who the manufacturer is?
Lovely gift to receive Michael, I've always looked at that figure, which I believe is a GW 40K one, to use in my own Witch Hunter Mordheim band. I see Curt has done a fine job of modding it to fit in your more black powder era setting!
ReplyDeleteGreat looking witch finder. I have a Curt tribute from a previous challenge, and agree that's it's a lovely idea.
ReplyDeleteLovely figure and gift, I can see why you are so pleased with it, isn't it horrible when real life looms large on the horizon!
ReplyDeleteCheers Roger.
What a fantastic looking mini sir!
ReplyDeleteSuperb, just superb!
ReplyDeleteStunning addition to your Witch Finder collection.
ReplyDeleteCheers, Ross
This Canadian fellow really is a most generous one, isn’t he?
ReplyDeleteI hear you brother! Both in receiving that coveted prise: a figure painted by his Frosty Snowlord himself and the start of a new academic year... hand on in there mate!
ReplyDeleteLovely stuff as always from the Snowlord! Looking forward to seeing him in action.
ReplyDeleteGood stuff from Curtis ... I guess talented miniature painters tend to flock together :)
ReplyDeleteA great figure, painted to a stunning standard that really captures the character.
ReplyDeleteWonderful fig from a wonderful guy - I treasure my minion figure also!
ReplyDeleteDman that real life. Hope your results were better than mine!
ReplyDeleteVery nice paintjob there Michael. Stunning miniature!
ReplyDeleteI thought there for a moment you'd painted a GW model!!

Delighted you like him, Michael. I hope he helps in the finding of witches and the upholding puritan peace (he sounds like the life of the party..). :)
ReplyDeleteVery nice!
ReplyDeleteI am very fond of this blogging community for this very reason - lovely mini.
