- Start date
Got the minis!
Thanks blackfly! Figured it wouldn\'t take too long since the package never had to leave the city.
I\'ll post pics and one of my preliminary conversion ideas after my camera charges. I totally forgot that I haven\'t plugged the poor thing in since...umm...February I think.

Glad to see that things are starting to come in, this next week should see most people with packages in hand.
angus147258, as wolf said, you are a tad late to this one, but I\'ll be happy to include you in as we did Gin1906 the last time around and do a direct swap with you. Shoot me a PM if you would with your address and any questions you may have (specifically, go through and find all my \'long\' posts in this thread and read up on them) and I\'ll get something out to you.

great! glad they got there safely. I\'ll take a wild stab at te conversion idea and hazard a guess that it involves removing the mourning wolf\'s claws. i like those in theory, but always thought they were the weak point of that model as sculpted.
anyway. . . *awaits pictures while painting silly knoblar thing. . *
@ blackfly - How\'d you guess?!?! lol
Actually, my idea wasn\'t for that one, but for the 54mm. My sister saw it when I opened the package and went \"EWwww...he looks like Voldo.\" So I think I may try to do that. The pose is about right.
Yay! Now I just have to find time between work and rehearsals. And I may have to buy more greenstuff.
Edit - Well...took some closer looks at the mini and some pics. My conversion idea would probably take an achingly long time...heh. Much of the body is right, but I\'d have to do a lot of conversion work on the legs, I think. I\'ll have to think about it.
...and is the Clan War fig Kuni Yori or something like that?
Edit to the edit - Oh who am I kidding. I\'ll probably assemble the 54mm more to stock. I like the Voldo idea, but I can\'t really see myself being excited about working on Voldo, of all characters, for very long.

Ha! Well, Voldo would have been pretty funny, but yeah, hard to stay interested in that unless you\'re a huge soul calibur fan probably.
Yep, Kuni Yori, Crab Clan Shugenja.
I look forward to seeing what you do with them. ..
Now I just need to wait and see what sort of classic mischief Praetorian_01 has sent my way. . .

OK FF your mini\'s on the way! I shiped it.

@Frustrated Father: They\'re here! I\'ve never seen anything from this company before. This is going to require thought.
@cindy : Friday the shipping happens. Pinky swear! It\'s the only day I can get to the post office.
And please do an awesome job, because my wife is going to kill me when she finds out which one I\'m sending. Just the other day, she told me she was thinking about finishing it off because it\'s been sitting so long. She doesn\'t know it\'s been stripped. Nobody show her this post! She\'ll know!

You are either a brave brave man or a really crazy one! Heh.Ripped the base off of Mr. Kuni and accidentally lost the slot tab from the Mourning Wolf. Heh. Drilled holes for the pins and waiting for stuff to dry now.
...and I\'m back to considering making that Voldo. Yeah...I know...I\'m wishy washy.

Glad they got there in good order. If I remember correctly, they are the Sidhe Archers, the bottom three on this picture (if not, well, I\'ve got them sitting here somewhere and I don\'t have a CLUE what I sent you)
They are nice, clean sculpts, very enjoyable to me personally. Hope they give you a good go.
Skin, skin and Skin! (and cleavage!)
@ Anatora
Got the figs today! Thank you for the wonderful selection! Wow, I guess it\'s time I finally learn to do skin, huh! The MtG Mahamoto Djinn is a great figure, looking forward to doing that...but what color scheme?!! (anguish creeps into voice) The Warzone figure is also great, and I love the Reaper dancing girls! Always stayed away from Elves (dunno why) but these look really good, gotta find a good color scheme here, to.
Filing tonight, priming tomorrow? You bet! Yaay!

Yahoooooooo my packet arrived from green-stuff today two VERY nice minis from Ilyad Games, a Black Orc warrior which I am probably going to do first and a mini that looks very Elflike but it is very cool. Decisions decisions which one to do first.

@Tim : I\'m glad you like them . The elf-like mini is called Wismerhill and is the main character of the comic books \"Chroniques de la Lune Noire\". He\'s half elf so you weren\'t that far off . He starts off as good natured but get\'s more and more an Elric feel as the story goes on.
