                        Excellent work, Rick, as usual. I like the metal finish on the knight. Well done! Smile [:)]

                        Thanks Zokissima.  The fun thing about fantasy figures is you can just let the imagination run wild & use some pretty wild color combos.

                        Very nicely done Rick. I love the colour variations on the dragon.

                        Thanks for the comments guys.  The scenic material on the base is all material from Woodland Scenics, intended mainly for model railroaders.

                            Very impressive vig, especially because its 25mm...must have aged your eyes a few years working on this one. Wink [;)]  Bien hecho.  Chao

                        I love it!  I love the base - how did you get the grass look? 

                        I love the movement - the horse is awesome!  Gives me something to work towards. Shy [8)]

                        Ok thanks anyway.   Just thought I'd throw the question out and maybe get lucky.  Seems like alot of the stuff I like, they don't make much of..  There are some figures made from pvc that I have, but they are all cheaply done and just plain don't look right.

                        That's really nice! :)  Have you ever seen anyone make any figures from the Kingdom Hearts game?

                        Thanks Dan.  You're right about the Jousting weapon, but I thought it looked kinda cool anyhow.  It's a fantasy piece, so realism wasn't high on my list Smile [:)].

                        If that knight is going to tackle that drake with that weapon he must be either very brave or very foolish, since it's a Jousting weapon, made for a "game" of jousting, not for killing.

                        Here's a little vignette using 25mm fantasy figures.  Dragon is from Ral Partha, Knight is from Thunderbolt.  Painted with Vallejo acrylics.  Scenic materials from Woodland Scenics.

                        Hope you enjoy the view Smile [:)].
