This week I have been working on the next pair of fighters for the warband taking my tally to six and the halfway point. I'm finding quite time consuming but going the extra mile with them is more than worth it.
The first model is from the F2 fighter range again, Rombustus Sellsword (I'll be giving him his own identity when the warband is complete), a figure I first painted way back in about 1988 (not the exact same model unfortunately).
The second is one of my favourite fighter models, another of the F2 range, the Gunnery Captain. He is such a totally cool figure with a wonderfully characterful face. I just love those spectacles.
The plan is to jump off the project for a couple of weeks to participate in a painting challenge on fb before resuming these guys. Ideally I'd love to get the ogre of the group underway but seeing as I don't yet own him or even seem to be able to source him right now, that isn't going to happen. Hope it won't be too long before I can get my hands on one. I don't want to end up having everyone finished and no ogre to round them off. This is the one I'm after, by the way:
Lovely minis and awesome work!
ReplyDeleteThank you Michał! Appreciate it!
DeleteVery beautiful work, Shaitan!
ReplyDeleteThanks very much Mouse! Very kind.
DeleteI really think you are doing a fantastic work on all these models!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Suber! It's been a very enjoyable project so far.
DeleteSorry I can't help you out with the Ogre as I know how frustrating it can be waiting for that must have mini to complete a project.
ReplyDeleteSo nice to see such a beautifully painted example of the gunnery captain - I'll be sure to check back in for references when I get round to my Empire army!
Ah no worries Steve. Hopefully there'll be one that turns up soon enough. Always been lucky to generally have all the models for a project lined up at the beginning. Cheers! Yeah the gunnery captain is a classy figure. I'm sure that Empire army, whenever it happens will be a thing of beauty.
