Yes, as the sculpt is very much based on Sean Bean. However, the 28mm figure that comes with this set does have two different head options, one with a big scar that better reflects the written character from Cornwell’s books. I thought that was a nice touch (but I still assembled the Sean Bean version!)
Do you read the books? I always have slight cognative dissonance every time I read that he’s a tall, dark Londoner rather than the image that Sean Bean has imprinted on me.
I’ve read most of them (Cornwell does keep them coming, and I haven’t kept pace with the newer ones) and I agree with your struggle. Sharpe will always look like Sean Bean however he is written thanks to watching the TV series first.
I finished the smaller if my two Sharpe models. I quite like the approach of having a larger (54mm) display model sold alongside a smaller (28mm) figure for gaming with.
Likewise with Sam Spade for me. The description couldn’t be less like Bogart, yet Bogart he remains.
First time in 6 months I had the possibility to get some painting done. I feel rusty but it was so good to get back to it.
Nice thing about Kill Team? 10 models per army.
This is my Tempestus. I have more stuff I have painted, but there are limits to how many pictures I can post…
And now for something not at all Kill Team related…
16 Jade Falcon (the greatest, and most humble Clan…) units for the Battletech Scorching Sands cooperative campaign.
I’ll post my Aurigan Reach mechs in a bit…
Jousting, that noble martial art and contest of arms, as practiced by goblins on their faithful mounts. Six Wartnose Jousters, plus a Clockwork Knight for them to tilt at.
Managed to finish painting these up before Feb ended as well - four evil dwarfs, with a few more on the paint table to follow.
This one is on pause until I get some brush on gloss to do the decals but I feel like some rust has shaken off and it’s better than the previous one and was more enjoyable feeling more in control of the brushes and paint. I have also been experimenting with Kimera Kolors again and added in some of their Velvet inks which are really good
