With the Bromhead figure all dressed up in his cloak I could just hear Michael Caine's voice - "Well chin chin.. do carry on with your mud pies"
In terms of sizing however the Black Scorpion is considerable larger and well fed than the Empress Miniatures one completed recently - both different and both great to paint.
The Old West lawman Pat Garret is from the Black Scorpion Tombstone range - just need to get hold of a Billy the Kid. Another one to add to the law man collection
Back to conversion work on the second regiment of Chasseurs tomorrow, then they are ready for undercoating.
Really nice, Dave, a wonderful painting job. I like a lot the colours.
ReplyDeleteJuan - It the Andrea Miniatures Red, and Blue set agin, makes light work of them.
DeleteTwo excellent figures Dave!, you just gotta love Mr Caine's figure!!!!!
ReplyDeleteLovely work Dave; I especially like the Bromhead character who is definitely on the shopping list for Salute.
ReplyDeleteLooking very good Dave,
ReplyDelete...and when Micheal Caine get loud he gets very loud indeed..
Yep - and of course "don't throw those bloody spears at me" from "The Man who would be King" which people think was in Zulu
DeleteVery very nice work on a couple of fantastic figures.
ReplyDeleteDave,
ReplyDeleteHow could you pass up the opportunity to write 'not a lot of people know that'? As for the Black Scorpion Caine - 'he's a big man, but he's in bad shape'.
Damn - forgot that one... now if i could get something for them to blow up... "Your onlY supposed to blow..." well you know the rest

ReplyDeleteLovely paint job and thanks for the comparison shot.
ReplyDeleteI really like these cowboys. The Dark Templar is doing a series of wild west figures and I think I'm going to buy some.
ReplyDeleteThey really look great!
ReplyDeleteMerci!
