Do the chain rock!

Nothing much today. Just some figures I've painted for a duel on Benno's Figures Forum. Again I was up against my good friend Paul from Paul's Bods. It was fun and not only because I won the duel. Also because of the unusual figures these are.

The figures are from a very old Atlantic set (1978), which can be recognized on the orange plastic, where they are made of. These are supposed to be Christians. So they can be seen as part 1 of 2 as can be seen in the review at Plastic Soldier Review. The next figures will show up in the near future when they are painted.

I've painted them with acrylic paints from Games Workshop and Revell.

Enjoy the pictures!

Don't you think the one on the left looks like Cliff Richard?
And the other one looks like a Beatle?
That's why I choosed that title!

The holes in their back are from fabrication!

Hope you like them!

Currently painting: Zvezda Vikings (5/11) and some other things.

Currently reading: W.E.B. Griffin's The Majors
