Oh rats! Here I thought I was just being buffaloed! Now I can't decide witch of the models I like best Herne!
Actually, they're all very nicely done!
Beautiful paint jobs, I especially like the work on the Bison shield.
Good stuff as usual.

I have to admit, the chief rat is possibly my favourite figure we at Rapier have ever had done. It is a lovely sculpt.

Well folks - it's been a long time, but the witches take to the air again! More of the brilliant Rapier witches! I love the sense of humour in these models, and espescially the drunk witch being taken home in the sidecar. You also have to love the RAF witch - she's even armed with twin-linked wands! :D

FINALLY got painting again - Notwithstanding a spell in hospital I got these finished for Rapier. The latest are another scorpion man - a warrior this time. I stuck with the green to match in with the champion I painted, (see above,) and also the amazing 'Pumpkin Thrower' and crew. Love this model - real humour! The cloth folds in the linen on the crew show much improvement over the earlier models too. The 'serious' faces of the crew add humour to what they are. If I was doing an undead army (KOW anyone?) I'd get a couple of these. Superb models! Hope people like the painting. :D

They were such fun to paint. Gave me a chance to break out the orange - a colour I almost NEVER use!
