      Maxi paints the FL11 Wizards Party!
"Wizards belong in towers. I tell you. They belong up in a craggy stone tower looking down at us poor mud racking mortals. That's their place. Makes me feel uneasy when one comes striding through the village all decked out in his flashy attire. Though the village he comes with a little lad at his tail babbling nonsense questions. Then a donkey with their baggage on it...and some sort of little thing...spout of flame it breathed I tell you no lies. Last up comes this hulking thing...Ogre I think..but too clean by far. Wooden chests bound to its back and up on its head too. I just stood there and stared and you know what? The bloody thing winked at me as it trudged past!"

      Rosengarten Paints Black on Kev’s Creatures
It is our great pleasure to share with you a super picture taken by Rosengarten Paints Black over on Instagram of his take on a couple of classic 90’s poses by Alternative Armies. At the dawn of the 1990’s the ‘Goblin Master’ himself Kev Adams sculpted two 28mm codes for us under the name ‘Kev’s Creatures’. These were KC1 Coblynau (Lesser Goblins) and KC2 Black Orcs (Mountain Orcs). We remastered these classics a couple of years ago to keep them in the world and in proper metal.
 
      
      Sketching in to a metal reality...
“Garren Madwon serves as a guardian of knowledge across the known galaxy. His beautifully sown robes signify his revered status while the astrotech staff is a multi-functional tool capable of accessing ancient data archives, projecting holographic star charts or even defending against threats. His helmet with a visor connects him to a wide neural network, allowing interface with planetary databases or to scan alien artefacts in real-time. He travels between worlds preserving history and uncovering lost technologies. Garren is a bridge between the past and the future.”
 
      
      Demonsubminis paints FL10 Winter Knight
"Out of the snows of the north he comes. Atop a black horse and a mighty axe laid across his lap. He rides endless leagues his face ever hidden by a horned helm. His cloak of fur billows out behind him as the wind blows. Those he passes give him as wide a berth as possible for none know what he will do and where he will go. In to the lands of the Orcs and of the foul things from graves he travels without fear, he hews the heads of those who oppose him. Who is this warrior? Who beneath the helm is...The Winter Knight?”
