In advance of the Analogue Challenge I'm trying to finish off all the half-done work on the painting table. Hopefully between now and Sunday, I'll be able to share several completed groups.
So I present:-

Men in fezes |
These were intended as my
Cairo Police Special Investigations Division, but to me they don't look official or 1930s enough (I'm sorry, but when I see those flares and the facial hair I can only thing of
Jason King and bad Roger Moore films). I might go back to the original idea of adapting the Perrys' 1882 Egyptian Army figures.
In any case, I can submit them to the
LAF Fezember Challenge.

Fish- or Lizard-men |
Generic monsters of the men-in-rubber-suits variety.

Just for Ev! |
Thank you!
ReplyDeletelooking good Edwin, keep them coming
ReplyDeletePeace James
I will ;-)
DeleteNice work Edwin!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat looking stuff there. Best wishes in the Challenge!
ReplyDeleteFezember? Awesome!
ReplyDeleteThat's what I was thinking - Fezzes are cool right?
DeleteThese are fabulous Edwin, really well done Sir.
ReplyDeleteLovely work, Edwin; nothing says 'possible Pulp antagonist' like a fez!
ReplyDeleteNo wonder Atatürk banned them. He must have become tired of his countrymen being negatively stereotyped!
I think the Deep Ones could use a fez or two though...
Your wish is my command sir - I refer you to the edit above.
DeleteThanks for all your comments.
ReplyDeleteI'm not too keen on how the Men in Fezes turned out. I didn't get much of a 'feel' for them when painting. But they'll do!
