Darkest Africa Zanzibari
Askaris. I clocked myself doing these about 45 minutes a pop, counting effective working time only. The actual time is much longer because I use washes a lot and they need to dry properly before work can continue.

Darkest Africa Zanzibari
Askaris. I really liked doing the jackets.

Scarecrows
I like the designs, I hate the brittle metal... with spindly arms like this, it's a small wonder none broke.

Toxic Spirit
Old Ral Partha Shadowrun figure. I'm not quite happy how it turned out, it doesn't look toxic enough.

Hover APC
This is a Grendel model I believe. Another of my misguided attempts at funky camo schemes.

Hover APC
Maybe I should have used a darker blue, or another black line to emphasize the yellow more.

A very old Grenadier set. It's not in any common scale, it's a pure display piece.

Water Nymphs
A had this for quite a while and then I decided to finish it and give it as a Christmas present for someone. I just couldn't decide who to give it to. Considering the amount of work these take, most people are not very appreciative. So, I asked my wife. She couldn't say either, so I gave it to her.

Native leaders.
