Girot Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 i like those bases Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sentient Bean Posted January 14, 2013 Author Share Posted January 14, 2013 The bases are clear acrylic 25mm rounds from Fenris Games. The figures have been pinned and super glued to the base after varnishing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pingo Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 This is going to sound weird. They're giving me an Astérix the Gaul sort of vibe. They look pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sentient Bean Posted January 16, 2013 Author Share Posted January 16, 2013 Well, they are French miniatures! ha ha. Maybe it's the blond hair? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pingo Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Oh, are they? With a name like Rackham I thought they might be English. I think it's the proportions. Whenever a young hero shows up in Astérix, he always seemd to have those sort of proportions and gestures: a thin waist, a wider chest, slightly exaggerated, sinuous curves on the arms and legs, and yes, blonde hair rather like that.

Sentient Bean Posted January 16, 2013 Author Share Posted January 16, 2013 I see what you mean! Yep, I thought so too originally (re the name). The owner named the company in homage to Arthur Rackham. The line is influenced by other British artists such as my personal favorite, Gary Chalk (of Games Workshop and Talisman 1st and 2nd edition fame). Mr Chalk actually contributed concept art and various pieces for their RPG offering "Cadewallon". I think the French are certainly now the masters of dark fantasy and weird childrens fables. I love this series on terrifying childrens books by the Guardian: http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/gallery/2012/may/30/terrifying-french-childrens-books-in-pictures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
