These minis were painted in my classic painting style meaning lots of washes, harsh drybrushing, and of course gloss varnish. If I had two fresh versions of these fellows I'd try something more up to date and smooth but I think this paint job "feels" right. Even with the gloss varnish there are dings and scraped paint caused by too many years of travel.
I'd really like to see Games Workshop go back and revisit concepts like these but as we know they rarely look back this far. So be it, I still think these foul little fellows are beautiful.

Wow these are sweet. So much character that I struggle to bring to my own miniatures. I'm seeing green!
ReplyDeleteThe original Leaping Slomm was sculpted and cast as per the illustration.....rarer than rocking horse do do :( I gather is was a swine to cast so it was re-sculpted as per the pics. My copy is in dangerously grey lead.......everytime I look at it I fear for it's safety :(
