The next commission: IHMN+

I've now started a 2nd commission form the same gentlemen who commissioned me to paint the 'In Her Majesty's Name' figures i painted in March.

This time there is a total of 70 figures, including an IHMN Dragon Tong,  Foundry Argonauts, Empress mid 1800s naval crew, Conan figrues, and some Hinterland female sailors.

Dragon lady, Master Wu-jen, Yeti

last night I finish off and photographed the 15 figures that make up the Dragon Tong.

Dragon Warrior, Tong henchmen

These figures were generally a joy to paint. the Dragon lady. and Dragon lord have a wonderful amount of detail, although the Dragon lady's face make her look like the most manly looking Asian woman I've ever seen. the patterns on the Dragon lady and Lord's robes are freehand.

2 Tong Henchmen, 2 Boxers

4 Tong henchmen (unknown manufacturer)

next to be panted in this commission are teh 10 figures that make up Argonauts from foundry. These should be done in the next day or 2. Also  either tonight or tomorrow morning I have a couple of  buildings, suitable for AWI, 1812 or ACW that, I've based for my friend Martin.

IHMN: Lord Curr's Company

I finished off Lord Curr's company for IHMN last night to finish
 up my current painting commission.  this will be dropped off the the client at Hotlead this coming weekend.

More of the Incorrigibles

Additional figures that look like they would
fit in with the Scotland yard team.

RN Naval Boarding Party

so yesterday after posting, I finished up a set of 8 Ironclad Miniatures Royal Navy Boarding Party figures as a 2nd lot for a recent commission.  they were lead by a west wind officer in similar garb.

interesting figures to be sure, and unique too. Although the sculpting is not to the same level as the IHMN figures I painted yesterday they still came out nicely. They are also noticeably smaller.

Lord Curr's company is next on hte block. they will be started on tomorrow.

IHMN commission

I recently took a commission of a few teams of In Her Majesty's Name figures.

The first team I worked on is the Scotland yard team  it consists of 12 figures, including notable characters like Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson as consultants.

The Consulting Detective, the Good Doctor

Special Branch with carbines

Constables with English All Electric Truncheons

the detail is overemphasized on these figures so they  take washes very nicely.  i was rather pleased with how the turned out.


I was in a bit of a painting rut last week.  had some insomnia which threw my mood off and I could not bet to painting anything.  I'll be getting back to painting again as i have several things I have to finish to get ready for a big game at Hotlead.  I'm hoping to finish the other 2 teams in the commission by the end of the week.
