After goodness knows how Long I'm finally uploading a feww pics of my mini's here- My Escher gang.

The name of my Gang is Tamla's Tigers. Their particular part of the underhive is known as Tamla Motown.

I tried as much as possible to paint them up like Garish Priscilla Queen of the Desert Type Trannies, rather than real women, as this seems to be their necromunda vibe. So weird hair colours and garish make-up allround (except for the juves they have to earn their stripes). I also tried to make their weapons as rusty and grotty as possitble- Gangers don't usually have their hands on brand new stuff

Apologies for slight Blur- it's my first time taking pics of minis.

This website needs more Escher, well done. The first picture is tiny but the rest are fine.:)

Some of them certainly came out better than others. I should add I am Dyspraxic (so is the The Girl i think) so I have been painting for longer than these models would suggest- this is pretty much the upper limit of my ability unless I spend hours on each individual piece

Thanks Eldargal. It's quite hard to paint escher Juves without getting the feeling you'll end up on some government list

I love Necromunda and I love the Idea Tranny Escher is a great theme

These aren't bad at all. I can't imagine how hard it must be to try to paint miniatures when you have dyspraxia; I seriously take my hat off to you!

As a side note, do you make much use of washes? I can't help but suspect that the application of washes to certain points on these models would make some of the details "ping".

Thanks for all the nice words, Its quite a while since I painted tehm, I think I may have used a wash on the tiger patterned tabards, I certainly used inks.

What would you suggest I do?
