Blacksmith

Here is the last of the villagers from the Friends & Foes miniature range. The Blacksmith like the juggler in the previous post was also a part of the celtic boxed set, and it's marked in the same way on the bottom of the base i.e. "Prince August LC9".

Juggler

The VL3 juggler miniature was originally released as part of a boxed set of figures for a french RPG called Légendes Celtiques and it has it's own product code, LC8 market on it's base. The figure was named L'amuseur (entertainer) in the original box.
This time I tried my hands on painting a tartan pattern on the trousers, but the result was less then great. Next time I will do the squares larger.

Phaeton Design

As mention in previews posts the sculptor Chris Tubb is re-sculpting the figures from the Fantasy Armies range. He now has a website from which you can order the figures directly using Paypal (as well as helping him save on Ebay fees). He recently released new sculpts of the Half-Orc Thief (CH29) and the Female Magician (CH37).

Sage

This figure is another good example of the plethora of different markings and codes used by PA. This one is markt PAM VL2.

Villagers

Right now I'm working on the VL miniatures from the Friends & Foes range. The innkeeper is is the first one I've painted and it's marked Prince August VL1 on it's base. I was inspired by Bruegel's paintings of renaissance peasants when choosing the colors for this modell.

CH5 Silvan Elf Firing Bow

When choosing a color scheme for this miniature I was inspired by the picture of it in the PA handbook no. 4. The miniature is marked Prince August CH5 on the base.

Odros "The Bagman"

Here comes another figure given a name and a background story in the PA catalogue from 1986. The figure has the same base design as the previous figures in the Character range but with a different type of marking. Instead of  the company name being spelled out, it has the abbreviation PAM and of course the code CH4.
