I'm hoping that six will suffice for the Silence tbh, as the Headless Monks are out next year, so my Papal Mainframe faction can be expanded by using them, rather than more Silents.Blaxklerichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06986635840718583767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-6363957344260249992017-12-21T12:57:58.480-08:002017-12-21T12:57:58.480-08:00When I first saw the Silent figures, I was not tha...When I first saw the Silent figures, I was not that enamoured of them, as I felt the poses were a little too static. But your adjustments to their poses and your paint jobs have improved them no end, so much so that it took me a while to work out which were the duplicates.

Much appreciated :-) I hope to get the Silence involved in a BatRep or two as soon as I can; albeit I'm building up quite the backlog with my current posting schedule.<br /><br />Tbh it was your posting ref "SVfM" which prompted my memory of owning some myself. When I then saw that I'd actually partially-painted a load of them, it made perfect sense to include them in my challenge; especially as the "Star Trek" vibe is strong with me currently :-)Blaxklerichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06986635840718583767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-88744420346965875122017-12-20T03:17:39.101-08:002017-12-20T03:17:39.101-08:00Thanks Joe.

The six Silence look suitably creepy. As you say, they have some very interesting stats in the "Exterminate" game. They should be tough opponents.<br /><br />As you probably know, I am a huge fan of the Space Vixens from Mars range and so I was especially pleased to see you posting your work on some of them. Please do finish them.Vampifanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11318241813130102121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-51910012799571974372017-12-20T02:32:10.394-08:002017-12-20T02:32:10.394-08:00The SIlent guys look rather good, but they must be...The SIlent guys look rather good, but they must be hge, even compared to some of the other pieces you have.Zabadakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05649765350412145174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-68178218393153599062017-12-20T02:30:13.815-08:002017-12-20T02:30:13.815-08:00Love the group shot mate, great!Love the group shot mate, great!Da Gobbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09482323500538272232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-26691982533271873892017-12-20T01:51:00.903-08:002017-12-20T01:51:00.903-08:00Many thanks, Phil.

The Silence have certainly helped empty a bit more room on the painting table - so I can now accommodate my "SVfM" minis :-) I'm hoping the "Star Trek" mood will help push me through all of the range I own tbh, and give me some 'phaser' BatReps in the New Year.Blaxklerichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06986635840718583767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-732942468518715002017-12-19T23:59:54.099-08:002017-12-19T23:59:54.099-08:00Great job on the Silents Simon, must feel good to ...Great job on the Silents Simon, must feel good to have them finished, the SVFM look to be some interesting figures and good to see you've found a reason to finish them Dave Stonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13398737478468720431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-68395406266504482222017-12-19T23:36:15.731-08:002017-12-19T23:36:15.731-08:00Many thanks indeed, Greg.

Its good to get the Silence finished, so I can use them as a 'proper' three-card faction for "Doctor Who: Exterminate!"<br /><br />As for "Space Vixens From Mars", Bryan recently posted a couple of them on his blog, which reminded me that I'd started painting a load about 18 months ago, and then stuck them in a drawer.
