Yes, good luck! I got these for £150 and free p&P and yours are superior paint jobs (and mould line free, I hate mould lines so have to play with my glasses off!).

Well, yeah I see what you're saying, but it's not a particularly pretty trophy.... and I know I won it. I don't need it to prove anything to myself :smoking:
The main reason I included it in the auction was for the provenance. I've made it very public that the paint job on this set won 1st prize for Best Painted in a tournament - some people will take you at your word, others may need a bit of proof before they'll believe you.

Moving on.... I threw a bit more paint on the Librarian yesterday. I was looking over the photos on EBay and realised that I never finished painting his Force Axe! Not a problem when it's your own set, but now I'm selling it I thought I'd better complete it :roll:

Here's an updated pic of the Librarian:-

Yeah, sorry - just highlighting difference in quality (oh the mould lines). Still I am happy, I never would have painted it... (only 1/2 way through Space Crusade) just need to sell the unpainted one! (Plus I would probably be in a bidding war now.)

*Starts making plans to kidnap The Painted Goblin and force him to paint all my mini's to the same standard as this Space Hulk team* :smoking:

Thanks - I'm well happy with that! (the price I mean, not the kidnapping) :lol:

No, wasn't me.. I just spent a few thousand bucks taking the kids to Orlando. Decided as much as I wanted the set, spending another 600+/- bucks was plain dumb, especially when I'm saving up to buy my wife a bigger rack.. :D
