Seamus - The Mad Hatter by Wryd miniatures

Towards the end of last I was introduced to Wryd minis. I had never heard of them before (yes, I was a complete noob) and once I saw their range I was instantly hooked.
For those unfamiliar with Wryd, they basically produce gothic, macarbre style minis which can also be used in a table-top game they produce called Malifaux. Their minis are a little disturbing but they also have a sense of humour. Just my thing!
Anyways I found Seamus at my local games store and just thought he was really cool. He is just so evil and sneaky looking.
The examples I saw of him painted had him quite dark. A member of the painting group I meet with suggested going crazy bright - he was to become Seamus The Mad Hatter Pimp!

Check him out below:

I'm quite happy with how he turned out... not too bad for a beginner. I had a bit of help from a friend with the pinning and sculpting of the tiles onto the base. I really love how the pink/purple with the leopard print turned out. I think his hat is my favourite bit.
My only major problem was the damn bag which repeatedly fell off, even after pinning. So now that he's complete he stays safely in a display cabinet and doesn't get touched!
I would definitely paint more Wryd minis, in fact I have some on their way from the USA. I can't wait!
