I'm hoping my good friend Rob doesn't mind me posting these guys here! I painted them a while back and I know they have gone to a truly deserving home.
So these guys painted up a treat! lovely figures and full of character and best of all they are plastic so I managed to try and create as many individual looking figures as possible

I've added a link to my blog do please feel free to check out a few more photos of these guys link thanks for looking guys, painting these little fellas brought me a lot of pleasure so hopefully sharing these pictures will spread a little more pleasure.
All the best for now Cheers Russ

Really nice looking figures my friend. The Irish wolf hounds is a nice touch. But I do have a question. What is your method for showing the hack marks on the shields? When I do it, they always seem to disappear in the paint. TIG

Thanks TIG, it's purely a case of picking a darker and lighter shade of the base colour. Use the darker shade to trace out the damage mark, then use the lighter shade to carefully highlight it. Try not to cover the darker shade completely with the highlight. Sometimes it's a case of playing around with the colours until it stands out without looking OTT. Hope that helps if not just let us know, its good to be back 😊 it's been a while.

OSCS74 thank you, they are not the first Wargames Atlantic figures I've painted and they definitely won't be the last.

Looks great

Thanks Must Contain Minis, Wargames Atlantic figures are definitely a company to keep an eye. They build up easy and paint up quite well, and at the present reasonably priced.
