Freebooter Rulz!

I got myself this little beauty today, ordered it on the weekend and here it is - all the way from Germany...Wonderful! Werner has really outdone himself on this sculpt, the powder-monkey is possibly the cutest fig I've ever seen. Don't know how he does it. No fancy three-up and 3d computer work for this man...all by eye and green-stuff. Absolutely amazing!




The paintjob is by Jennifer Haley a renowned artist, and sculptor for Reaper mini's. Check out her stuff here:

Paintrix

She features in the latest 'No Quarter 15' as winner of the Gold in the Diorama category of the P3 painting contest. Her Old witch of Khador and Scrapjack Vignette is filled with small resculpts and details. I've been following her work since before she became Pro, and got Reaper commissions. (8-9 years) She just gets better all the time. Her site is small and links to wegotgame site, but it all needs updating- pity really. You can see some of her work at the freebooter miniatures web site, in the gallery.

See ya later,
