| I was debating if this was off topic or not, but I recall quite a few folks at one point who were really into repainting their minis, so I figured I'd toss it here for the moment.
Inspired by HotorNot.com, you can now rate other people's mini paint jobs. I had a great time, there's some really inspiring color schemes and detail work that I think anyone with a passing interest in minis might appreciate.
http://coolminiornot.com/Â enjoy.
EDIT: Includes hand sculpted minis as well.

Pathetic Earthlings. Hurling your bodies out into the void - without the slightest inkling of who or what is out here. If you had known anything about the true nature of the universe - anything at all - you would have hidden from it in terror. | |

| | Yes, a fantastic site. Some of the figures I've seen there are breathtaking. DDM is the fast-food of miniatures (good for the masses, and makes the most money), and the stuff on coolminiornot is for the gourmet miniatures enthusiast. I participate in, and appreciate, both sides of the market. | |

So, you stand at your grave, Has your soul yet been taken away?
So you can't read what's engraved, Is this Heaven or merely Decay?
Was there a light, enchantingly bright, A Question, just how did it end?
Just let me sift through your calm remains, And tear you away from your skin.
