MEXICAN Marchiachi Band by LEMAX

A little too tall for 54mm figures. Cut the legs off the figures at the ankle and reset them to scale. I was going to paint them in monochrome but decided to fully paint them.
A simple matte paint job....











These figures fit in with Steve Weston bandits and peasants  and TSSD figures.

    Very nice work. Were the originals 60mm?
    I am only surprised you did not convert them to a skeleton mariachi band in keeping with the coming Dios de las Muertos, the Mexican Day if the Dead, the popular equivalent of our Halloween around All Souls Day, when the skull and the skeleton are everywhere in Mexican culture.
