Welcome to The Gallery of Miniatures, a showcase for all the Crimson Skies minis  I've painted. I don't actually play the game as often as I'd like, but when I do, I've got some snazzy play pieces for it (at least I like to think so).
     All of these were painted first in all black, then I drybushed on the main color scheme, and added details like cockpits and guns. I managed to print up some decent decals for some of them, which really helps add character to the plane.
     So anyway, take a gander at my work, and you can click on each one to bring up a larger image. Any comments? Mail me at: [email protected]
