As I say elsewhere, I started painting when I was 12. I have many of these early figures lying around, and they serve as a good reminder when I want to toss all my paints and brushes that I have made progress. That said, some of those early models are now classics and it would be to see them painted better. Case in point, I decided to repaint a late-70s or early-80s Grenadier lizardman. The first picture is the paint job (when I was 13 or 14) before going into the dip. The second two are the new paint job. As you can see, there was some alteration. The original sword had deteriorated to a wire, so I removed it and replaced it with a spear built with a couple lengths of sprue and a spearhead from a Reaper figure.
