Oh gawd I feel like crap....Man Flu has hit the Rousell household!
Grooooaannn!
For my first entry into this years Challenge may I present Hawkeye and his pals, Cora Munroe, Alice Munroe, Uncas, Hawkeye, Chingachkook and the dreaded Mague.
Boo Hiss!!!
I did plan to paint these up in the summer, but only got as far as undercoating them and they were the first figures I saw in my box I thought they'd get done first.
They were and are a simple paint, which is pretty lucky for me!
Of course these aren't for the French Indian War, they'll be for my Donnybrook excursion
into Bacon's Rebellion.
I make my first entry 30 points!

I had not realized you had not submitted an entry yet, so welcome back to the points roster Ray!
Great looking minis, Mr. Rousell. Maque was such an epic villain in that movie. I quite like how you did the buckskins and the flesh tones of both the tanned Hawkeye and the three aboriginal characters. I can't remember, do you have Redcoats and French in this scale for them to frolic with?
These six will give you 30 points to start your climb up the roster - well done and I hope you feel better soon!
Great set and well painted. I love that movie... I especialy like the hand to hand fighting. Crisp, brutal and efficiant without looking like Kung-Fu. A great first entry.
ReplyDeleteCheers Adam.
DeleteI just had casually assumed Ray had already painted 100 things...wow...I guess that minion stuff is already taking a toll?
ReplyDeleteWell done Ray! I'm sure you are just back-loading the entries...
I'm afraid them days are long gone Greg.
DeleteA great set of figures Ray :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Tamsin.
DeleteSome excellent figs from a terrific film, well done Ray! (though there's one scene that will put you off hearts for life...)
ReplyDeleteStuffed hearts, one of my Dad's favourite dinners.
DeleteNice bunch of figures, good clean paint job!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain

DeleteFlu bad, painting good
ReplyDeleteIt's bad Martin. I'm even missing a game today!
DeleteGreat to see you on the board Ray.
ReplyDeleteIndeed, about bloody time too!
DeleteWelcome back my minion. Great work on these characters. Get over the man flu soon, but milk it for all its worth until then
ReplyDeleteIt'll be milked, don't worry about that.
DeleteLove the film; great work!
ReplyDeleteIt's a great film. Plenty of action, bit too much luvvy dovey though.
DeleteMan flu? Budgiefever I'll bet you! Anyway, a great representation of such classic figures great stuff Ray!
ReplyDeleteCheers Sander.
DeleteThey look great Ray and hope you feel better! Just mentioning the flu starts to make me feel I have it! Run away!

They do look great, Ray! I heartily approve of the brushwork you did on my cousins too! From Mogwai to Hawkeye nice work on the gear and flesh tones!
