Just took a quick shot of the almost finished article  I scaled down the pics to save bandwidth but it seems to have obscured some of the detail!
Ill go now and take a few closeups
Comments would be cool Good or bad!

close-ups would be good ...
what I can offer to make them better:
- the horns on the helmets are too white. Try some inkwash with brown ink and follow up with a bone-white drybrush.
- try some black ink wash on the metallic parts
- I don´t like the blue shoes. With these they look like superheroes and not like BB players |

Ok, i just took some more. At some stage im going to go and work on the horns, i was trying to get these done as quickly as possible so i only spent 45 mins on each mini  I have 2 teams coming in the post this week so its all go here!
You cant imagine how hard it is to paint skin quickly! Or even paint eyes underneath helmets |

I agree. Blue shoes are not the best thing around. But it seems a VERY good work imho. The linos are SUPER. |

Who cares about closeups, I ain't going to be pickin em up to have a close look while playing (well I ain't likely to be playing either, unless Rob is willing to shout me an air fare or comes to australia and brings them). They look the goods to me Rob, top stuff! |

Thanks for the replies!
I bought these off Darkwolf but they took months to travel the Atlantic!
Just wondering if anyone has any spare Norse minis that i can buy to fill out the collection? 2 Blitzers and a few linos should do it |

Nice yes, but the Horns are definitely too white.
I kinda like the blue though. |
