Another Citadel Mail order flyer in that strange badly photocopied ransom-note-like collage style ... This time classic High Elves...

Citadel Mail order flyer for Space Ork Freebooterz. It is not (only) my photocopying skills that are at fault here.
The original flyer was a badly photocopied (admittedly very bizarre) ransom-note-like collage...

Some photocopies of older Metal Magic catalogue pages I made way back when. The paper looked slightly mildewed so made some scans before getting rid. Include some really bonkers miniatures in the Freaky Fantasy range!

Another great Metal Magic haul - all 8 miniatures in the C1026 Zombies series + a harpy from the C1012 Monsters range - (surprisingly) managed to snap these pictures before ripping the blisters open

This will explain why that Metal Magic monk was blue.
He & the "jolly" monks from Foundry & 2 Tiny Tales Studio monks were painted as servants for Ilyad Games Chevalier de Justice knights (special editions; Temple du Jeu)

couldn't resist also adding some B&W pictures, there's a bit of a Seventh Seal vibe with this miniature ...
