I like the black hands as it offers up a little more interest in an otherwise fleshy appearance.<br /><br />Agree on the AoS scenery - it's all very elaborate in design and should make your games rather thematic indeed. I like the layers you've applied thus far.

The latest 'costumes' do seem to have black fingers/toes, but as you say I couldn't find any pictures of them which showed such evidently dark entire hands and feet. However, I do like them as it breaks up their somewhat monotone look imho.<br /><br />Great news about the Twelfth Doctor, if it means getting your hands on the Impossible Girl!! I do own the "Crooked Dice" version but wasn't terribly impressed with the sculpt tbh. I look forward to seeing yours painted up and your thoughts on the castings themselves.
