This week I have completed 9 x warriors on horses, 7 x soldiers on feet (2 freehand shields as well). All plastic and all 28mm.
First the friends of violence meet-up group image.
Conquest Games mix and match Dark Age die hards.
FireForge Mounted Mongols.
Gripping Beast Arabs.
The warrior on foot has actually been sawn in half but fortunately the magician found him an armoured top half from the Heavy Cavalry set. Phew!
Next Perry Miniatures Wars of the Roses defenders of Beer and Bacon.
The Foot pike figure has been converted to get that pike on that angle. The plastic set has them all marching with pikes upright. The Skewbald was completed last week with the previously shown ones but he didn't have a rider ready. Actually a big jump for joy moment as these two are my last Light horsemen from 2 boxes. Wahoo! 24 Light Horse completed! Hitting goals like this is one of the great results of this motivational challenge not to mention having a red hot go at horse variations. Cheers Millsy and Cheers Curt!
Ahhh... Another lovely mixed bunch from Mr Skewbald himself! Once again you've delivered a very tasty mix of periods and theatres Brendon and the result is wonderful. One of the real challenges of The Challenge from my perspective is maintaining output without the quality dropping off. You've done that in spades and if anything the quality has continued to improve!
Well done once again, another richly deserved 127 points for your tally including a couple of extra for the lovely hand painted shields. Just 345 more points and you'll pass your initial target. Nice work! Cheers, Millsy.
More wonderful work Brendon..well done
ReplyDeleteBeautiful stuff Brendon! Those mongol cavalry are just fabulous.
ReplyDeleteExcellent mix of figures here Brendon and very well done. I particularly like the Mongols and their horses. Nice variety in coats on them.
ReplyDeleteAll hail beer and bacon!

DeleteAlways a joy to look at your work :-)

Great additions Brendon :)
ReplyDeleteThose are all lovely- I like the pointing bowman- but the Mongols are something else, such motion!
ReplyDeleteAnother quality submission - excellent work, Brendon!
ReplyDeleteThese keep getting better and better. Tremendous stuff.
ReplyDeleteGreat work here! Lovely!
ReplyDeleteGood work Brendon!
ReplyDeleteI really like those mongols, they have a great animation to them! Brilliant brushwork again, and that foot Arab is very nicely done!
ReplyDeleteGreat job Brendan. Love the conversion on the pikeman, is that a billman arms with a weapon swap? Also love the Arabs, great job on the shield.
ReplyDeleteThanks Peter. I used up all my billman arms before I started the pikes on an angle project. Those Billmen arms would make the conversion process a lot easier. cheerrs
DeleteTruly inspiring! Perhaps I should get started with my 28mm Vikings... Are you happy with the plastic bowmen set BTW?
ReplyDeleteThanks Sander. The plastic Bowmen set is great. It adds a lot of options. The bodies in that set look very good with the large axe from the Norman infantry set and the longer haired heads as well. cheers
Deletemmmmm enticing....
Deleteone more time, excellent paintwork!
ReplyDeleteseems to be the week of the mongols;-)
My, my you have been a busy boy Brendon!! Wonderful brushmanship!
ReplyDeleteReal nice brushwork, the red and black on the war of the roses figures looks spot on
