Black Scorpion's Fantasy Pirate Captain.

Bought a scud load of Wild West figures from them at Triples last weekend.
But didn't see these until the 'Red Light' on my wallet had kicked in.
Don't know who their "studio" painter is, but he or she has done a very nice piece of work on them.

I like the roman armor idea but is this a conversion or straight off the shelf? And if you painted that, it's awesome, love the hair effect.

It's a 54mm from my own line (available in the cool mini store under myrmidon miniatures.)
The 32mm version are currently being worked on by the sculptor.

That Mantic standard bearer looks really nice!

 

[cassar]

i agree thats nice that is.......when do we vote?

 

[supervike]

I'll throw up a poll in a day or two...

I haven't nominated anything, so, I'll go back to Avatars of War: and then back to GW with Grimgore Ironhide.

I love this ork bust!

 

[Kalidane]

I'd say this has been a resounding success! Both models are seriously seriously good. I'll definitely be buying both the moment the Mantic model is released.

Standing by for the next thread of shopping compulsion!
