Cheers Para, the black is mostly not actually black which is why it has a bit of extra depth

Awesome work, mate - and good to see you back in some capacity. I was just saying to Carlos, it's been a right bastard of a year for a lot of us, so it's good to see you keeping your head up as much as possible.

Painting is back on track at the moment and going quite well

I started a new job last week which is a bit strange but keeps the model funds coming in which is always good

I still have some other real life things to sort out but that will take a while

But today I have some treemen for you for Kings of War, I'm really happy with how these guys came out. I really tried to get a nice but different wood effect on both of them.

are those tree trunks between them, or did the third member of the trio get cut down in the prime of his life?

They are looking glorious by the way. I always did like those GW treemen.

They're not trunks, they're Treeman slippers

Nice wood effects! I like the 'leafy Avatar' look of the plastic Treeman but I hope GW return to the 'heavy oak' look for a tanking specialist equivalent.
