So I'm on this crusade to get all of my old school Heritage, Ral Partha, Grenadier and Citadel minis painted. In some cases, I'm salvaging old minis procured via e-bay from disastrous paint jobs to live again.

I've got five painters working on various projects and things are finally really starting to come along. I've gotten the first progress pics over the last few weeks and thought I'd share.

If anyone's interested in keeping up with the general progress, I'm tracking it all on my Flickr site…

If I boffo these direct image links, I'll try to fix them asap. I hope everyone enjoys them as much as I do.


Here's a taste of what's on there…

Wow… it's great to see that old LOTR orc, actually painted well.

Well done! I wish I could paint like that.

tkdguy…

So do I, but I can't. laugh

So I just stick to what I do really well, which is working boatloads of hours so I can pay talented people to do it.

Ah, we are a species of specialists, yes?

By the way…4 of the 5 artists are represented in these pics and they are all attributed on the Flickr site.

And for you, Space Monkey, I have about 900 of the Heritage LOTR Orcs being painted up over the next 6-8 months…plenty of eye candy if you're so inclined.

You lucky dog! Please post pics of those Heritage Orcs. I think those are excellent figs!

Thanks,

John

More than any, those Dwarves hold up really well.

Thought I'd just add the update to the original thread.

One of "my guys" (as I've come to refer to them) is midway through a batch of Ral Partha Sahuagin. I think Dave is giving me the best painted examples of these sculpts I've ever seen. I'll have a nice warband of 60-ish warriors.

I've come to realize I also have an unreleased mini originally designed for the Sahuagin II package that never got released. That one will get special treatment.

I hope you enjoy the update, and thanks for looking. I'll have a significant update on my Heritage LOTR Uruk-Hai coming soon. More can be seen at my Flickr site linked in my original posting at the top.
