Dead Man's Hand - Banditos

A friend from the hobby gave me these "bandidos mejicanos" to play some DMH games with him and some other friends just for laughs.

The game is straight forward and easy to play, and very fun too, especially thanks to the cards that allow player interrupt others' actions.

I gave a quick paint work to them so I could play it and also resume my scheduled painting.

    1. Thanks again Phil, but it's just diluted paint and then a wash of varnish with betumen of Judea with a few drops of black ink. I only gave a light to black and white colours as the dark brown wash do not work on these two colours.

  4. "A quick paint job"? Really Javier! Makes me weep into my paint tray 🤣

    Fantastic work as always. The stripes on the ponchos are fantastic.
    I hope the bottle has four XXXX's as this is an actual beer brand in Australia. 😂

    1. Thank you Ben but I swear it's just a quick watered down coat of paint plus a wash in brown. Read my previous comment above. I'm afraid I only painted 3 Xs :)
