I wasn't happy with the color on these minis. The color looked too orange-ish next to the rest of the Legion, so I fixed it. They don't bother me anymore!

Not sure what the company was or the game system, but here are some old school minis for a TT wargame from out of the seventies. Black Sabbath and Kiss were putting out their first records when these were made... and they were difficult to line on because of the age and the molding methods used back then. All in all, a good set for a campaign somewhere.
This miniature is such a dynamic sculpt that I had to buy one for myself and see what I could do with the colors. Unfortunately, the miniature that I purchased was a factory defect. At some point, Reaper Miniatures produced a run that the base did not come out good enough so they shipped it with a plastic base instead. So I made my own. For a first try with putty, baking soda/cement mix, blue Tac and paint... it looks pretty good! This is still only about 50 percent complete. I'm looking forward to seeing how this one turns out!
