Last of the bunch .


Finally finished off my 'Unlikely Allies' box , here is the Devote Monk .


The Watchman with his lantern 


And last but not least the Tea House Hostess , she was a challenge to paint, I've always found it difficult to paint female figures convincingly and rather delicate Japanese ones especially so . Her face took a couple of goes to get right .


The whole box set finished , it has taken me a week , but I have enjoyed the experience immensely - so different from painting uniformed units of all the same figures and uniform .

  1. Wow! Great work! Esp the hostess.

    Its been ages since I've turned my hand to that sort of painting in general and characters in particular and most of those were 54's. They weren't this good!

    1. Liked the change of technique - back to painting 40mm's with a BIG brush now .

  2. Nice work there on the Japanese figures- the detail on the cloths is very well done- those kimino flowers look very detailed- fine work.
