What a fantastic project!!!

Didn't I see this at FigureWorld?? If it was this one at the far end of the table near the Mil-Mart stand that is, very impressive.

Hi Graham,
Yes it was and thank you, I thought I would take it down, as after that show it will not move now until it's completed.
cheers

[Richie]

Hi All,
I know it's been a long time since I posted anything on this, due to lots of reasons including doing 5 new projects, one of which I will put up later today. I have started to lay some colour down on the figures and this is how it stands at present. Still a mountain to climb but it's moving again.
cheers
Richie

Looking really classy Richie.
Those Zulu flesh tones are coming up superbly well.
I wondered where this monster diorama had got to, it is great to get this update and see your fine progress.
Well done Mate you are right on the money.
All the very best,
Keith

Ian

Ian, I may bring it down it just depends on whether I want to take the risk at this point, my aim is still for the Sword & Lance, so I might just leave it and bring down a few other things, including some kits.
cheers
Richie

 

[mil-mart]

Nice progress Richie following.

Cheers Ken

 

[Babelfish]

I really admire your vision and ambition on this Richie. I wouldn't have either the patience for something as big as this, or the skill in remodelling and sculpting the figures. Looking forward to watching it progress further and seeing it finished. Following with interest. Very good flesh tones on the Zulus by the way .

 

[ChaosCossack]

Glad to see you back at this monster project. The Zulus look awesome. Painting that skintone has always been a struggle for me... you have done a great job.

Looking forward to more progress
