I love seeing old models with such stellar paintjobs. They never looked that good back in the day. Great work (and good luck with the other 2/3)!

That sure is a lot of scouts! Those old 2-part plastic ones have a lot of retro charm, they're like a really bad movie from your childhood.

Those old scouts looks really creepy. This is the first time I see them and at first I just couldn't understand why they felt so wrong.
Seriously. they look like some giant babies from a sureallistic nightmare. And it really just make it worse that they are identical clones. Scary stuff you got there.

Great paint job though!

LOL @ the giant babies comment!

Seriously awesome paintjob on those scouts. Also like seeing the old ones, even though they do look like some kind of dwarves or mutants.

That's an excellent bunch of models you've got there. The shading, highlighting, and freehand are all fantastic, but I'm really impressed with the shaved stubble you painted. I also like that you used other helmetless heads in place of the default scout heads. Great work all around!

Always a pleasure to look at your models Gareth. You have skin down to a true art.
