The Werewolf and the Highwayman.
Continuing on my 18th century horror stint, I present this pair.
I have had the Reaper Werewolf kicking around on the painting queue since last year. It is actually a Reaper Bones miniature, the first I have painted and I must say, I had no problems at all with it. Looking on the net I have seen it painted in brown, grey and even white, but I went for a more sinister, darker tone. It towers over a 28mm miniature and certainly will make an imposing monstrous villain.
The figure is an Outpost Wargame "Highwayman in French Greatcoat". I really like this miniaturre and he could just as easily serve as a hero or villain. He has a certain "Brotherhood of the Wolf" look, what with the greatcoat and all. Outpost are a decent match for Front Rank miniatures, if not a little chunky. I do hope he has silver bullets in those pistols though.

ReplyDeleteLovely paint work !
ReplyDeleteI love them both and the Brotherhood of the Wolf was such a great movie.
ReplyDeleteThey do indeed look wonderful! Mr Awdry is spot on about the Brotherhood of the Wolf as well.
ReplyDeleteGreat looking stuff. Love that werewolf model - I have one lurking half done somewhere...
ReplyDeleteI agree, both of the miniatures look great. Nice paint work.
ReplyDeleteWonderful characters and terrain!
ReplyDeleteExcellent paint job, and great pics too!
ReplyDeleteThe figures are very nicely done but what caught my eye was the setting with the buildings in the back ground. Then I checked out your previous post on your scratch built buildings, superb!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the encouraging words all gents.
