Swamp creatures

Yay! it's been two years since I painted Dracula's America toys!
The other day I've been experimenting some more with GW's Contrast paints and I still like it. Some things would work better with traditional paints though. Contrast isn't going to save us all, it's not the utopian solution to our problems, it isn't communism as my mate put it. Paint to the People! None of that.
But some colours are pretty swell. Applied well that is. 

Anyway here are some of North Star's DA miniatures.
I've got some more Foundry old west guys coming in to complete my vampire and voodoo congregation gangs. Can't beat those old Copplestone faces.

A Temple Snake, a giant serpent with a slightly human head summoned by the voodoo rites.
A Ghost Witch
A Manitou by Mike Owen
A minor servitor of Dagon. I believe this is an old Harlequin Miniatures swamp-troll. Probably sculpted by Mark Simms of Crusader Miniatures.
A deep one. This is a conversion of a Reaper caveman with a deep sea fish as a head.

The swamp troll / servitor of Dagon is really cool.

By the way, I was looking through your blog roll and I think the tumblr blog "fuckyeahbritisholdschoolgaming" is hacked.
