Without a question MARS has made some of the worst sets we know.
And it is a strange company politic to copy the sets of other manufacturers.
But I have tried to give my best.

Hope you enjoy!

Great work Konrad! You did more than justice to them. :-D

Please post some more photos!

I really hate when someone gets horrible figures & paints them beautifully; transforming them.

I hate this because I can't do it. I'll end up buying the Mars monstrosities & even after painting them, they'll look ugly.

Thanks Konrad! They are truly beautifully painted. What colors specifically did you use for the faces?

You have choosen the best poses, as it seems to me. Nice work.

I use
GW Dwarf Flesh
GW Elf Flesh
CITADEL Ogryn Flesh (Washes)

I have chosen these figures because of the poses and the faces.
The rest of this sets are maybe usefull for gaming.
But this is only my opinion.

Fantastic work Konrad! I just had a look at PSR to see the original figures! My respect that you managed to get them look so good! :notworthy:

A wise modeler once said, "A good paint job can elevate a poor figure". Well, your marvelous paint job has brought these....ah hum figures.....into orbit. Great use of color and shading. Love the Drummer boy.
Happy modeling.....Bill.

What can I tell you about your painting skills that I didn't told you before? You simply turn poor figures into small masterpieces. Thanks for sharing your photo technique.

And you don't need to be afraid of Benno... he's good guy (sometimes) :mrgreen:

Really very good my friend. WOW :love:

Hope to see them in real next time.

Wow. See my comments on your post of Revell pikemen as the comment applies to these as well.
