Hi,

Here's a couple pre-based snaps of my up and coming Merovingian Franks. Hope you like them:

If you click on the images they will enlarge.

Cheers,

Darrell.

I think you posted the wrong link -- we want to see the speed painted ones, not the ones you're prepping for a painting competition!

Seriously, they look excellent. If you want to share your process, I'll read it.

I agree with above comments. your Franks do not look speed painted. I expected some brown wash mess. Those look good.

Thanks for the kind words chaps.

"Those are speed painted! How long did yoiu spend on them?"

I did them all over the weekend, so about a day give or take. That is actually very quick indeed for me! :0)

"Very nice. What's your secret?"

"Seriously, they look excellent. If you want to share your process, I'll read it."

No secret. Just paint as quickly as you can and don't worry too much if your brush strays.

Cheers,

Darrell.

Atheling: No secret. Just paint as quickly as you can and don't worry too much …
LOL. I could give that advice too and my figures look different from yours! Ah well.

Nice figures.

very nice indeed, I think your 'speed' technique really works.
