Painted Foundry Minotaur and Reaper Golems!
Some items recently submitted to the challenge, two Reaper Bones 2 Golems from Anne O'Leary and a Foundry Minotaur picked up at Blog-Con, nice big miniatures.............28mm Foundry Harpy to show some scale!
I'm really digging on that Minotaur Fran. I need to get one for my collection but they tend to be pretty pricey.
Do you know how long it's been since you've plus 1'd me? That's 3 points against you now (you earned two points previously for referring to me as girl instead of cailin). Normally these violations would land you in the doghouse as per our legally binding agreement that states "For each time I piss Anne off, she has the legal right to count it against me. After I have accumulated 3 points she has the legal right to send me to the doghouse for an indeterminate amount of time" However I've gone soft on you again (I think it's due to dehydration from lack of water), I'm giving you a free pass on this one :)
It is funny how even from here I can hear Ray disapproving of anything Fantasy. They do look good though. and I look forward to seeing more Fantasy work from you.
Very nice mate they are certainly big feckers!
ReplyDeleteThanks Simon.
DeleteNice with a capital N Fran.
ReplyDeleteThe Minotaur has a real cheesy grin!
A fecking lot of cheesy teeth!
