From JohnM: More The Affliction (20 Points)

Nine more figures from Folklore: The Affliction box set. I have only 5 more left to paint. I have again gone with bright colours. They are nice figures to paint aside from the faces as on some of the figures the sculpting of the faces is quite soft.

I am experimenting with a black backdrop here. It is a real challenge, as to keep the background black, I have to crank down the exposure and have to avoid using a lot of light. I am using my iPhone as oddly enough I find the quality better than my fancy camera and I can edit the photo to a certain degree on my phone. I also like the airdrop feature. I am having some problems with the lighting as you can see the left most figure in the bottom photo is a little washed out.

I like a white back drop as I find it easier to get the exposure correct, but my last submission to the challenge this year really will require a black backdrop so it is good to get some practice in. If any one has any advice to give I would appreciate it.

Moon Priests and Stregas

Some Vampires

Gargoyles

I painted the Vampires and Gargoyles before the challenge so I can only claim 20 points here. I had forgotten to photograph and post them so I thought it would be OK to add them here. 

From Ray

A nice little collection of figures John. I like the bright and bold colours you've used. Is it me or do the vampires look like the Vampire from the old Salem's Lot, David Soul TV show? 
I do like the Gargoyles, shame you painted them before the Challenge.

20 very colourful points heading your way John.
