Got some painting done this weekend. Last weekend was spent down in works accommodation. Allowed me to see a new part of the country. Although lack of modelling time sucked. This weekend I've attempted to catch up. I've been playing with the Castle Donnington goodies and got these beasties painted up.
These are the 10mm Pendraken Giant Undead and will work nicely for Undead Abominations (various giant style Undead critters) as you can see they loom nicely over the 6mm basic troops. The regular 10mm Undead is earmarked for Undead Horrors who are Ogre equivalents. I've also got some of my Irregular Undead done.
Part of the scaling problem is I accidentally used thinner bases on the Irregular models. I don't think they scale that well together and plan to use the Irregular models as lesser ranked Undead. Zombies rather than Skeletons and Skeletal Horsemen rather than Cursed Knights. Thicker bases could well solve the problem.
Which would I recommend. For variety and quality of sculpts and moulds Microworld games. For cost and charm Irregular (I like the cloaked look and especially like the Cavalry which I prefer to the Microworl games models). The cost recommendation is for two reasons Irregular is cheap and the import tariffs on Microworld Games stuff are prohibitive. Hopefully they'll enter a distribution agreement with someone in the UK. Dark Realm Miniatures makes most sense as Microworld distributes their stuff in the US.
