You know Perv, you aren't the only one who collects OOP Dwarves, I'm currently painting my way through a unit of 20 Imperial Dwarves I got really cheap on eBay, already undercoated, based and with magnetic bases and a unit tray.

I am waiting with paint brush in hand.  (literly) I just about done with my latest project I am now even looking at my shelf of shame now. :icon_scratch:
Long term exposure to the Orb of Confusion will give you...er.. confusion!

I invite you to my dot on the web: http://www.darkgrinminiatures.com

I should have 20 or so Dwarfs for trade in a day or 2.  Will offer them here first but will pop them on ebay soon so you'll have to be quick.  Theres the Norse Standard Bearer seen here (first figure)

Thats the highlight of them.  Also William from Up The Wall crew but he hasnt got a tab on him.

Hopefully wont be long Dargrin, I asked them to notify me asap if any further delays.

Show me them when you've finished please Squigface.  Theres a few of the imperial ones I think are hard to paint as they havent very defined areas on them

Squigface

Sure thing Perv, you are right though some of the areas are undefined and a lot of them are quite rough, I might have to add a thin layer of GS to some bits so that I wil be able to paint them well.

Those Perry Bros Dwarfs are my favourites purely because sheer amount of different models, put them next to a Marauder one though and you can see a massive difference in detail.  I even find drybrushing chainmail to be a bit tricky on the Perry Bros ones, going round with a pin or needle to deepen some of the mail holes may be an idea b4 painting too  :icon_wink:

Alices were posted today Dargrin so should be with you early next week mate.  Any probs just let me know

My Dwarf army's colours are Black, green and yellow, I think it looks quite striking yet not Garish :D

Squig

Perv

green and yellow go well together, the black also sets off both well, a nice choice.  I am a sucker for blue and yellow so will have a few in that scheme.

The Andrea Miniatures Alice in Wonderland figure came thru today, wow !!!  Its a great piece and on par with the quality of the Bob Olley Sculpts, its that good !!!

Squigface

Yeah, it makes a fairly neutral colour-scheme (good for earthly dwarves) but the yellow creates some contrast/"pop" :)
