From PaulO'G: Even more Indians and British Assault Walker (85 points)

In addition to my Bonus round submission, this week saw me complete another dozen Woodland Indians for our FIW campaign.  Alan routinely fields two dozen of these bloodthirsty braves in our Sharp Practice games and seeing them bear down on my loyal Colonials gives them the heebie jeebies - hopefully my having a reciprocal amount will give his French equal pause!

These are really lovely sculpts by Bob Murch from the Flint and Feather range, aimed at early contact/pre-contact period, thus the myriad of traditional weapons.  Again I spent a bit of time on authentic warpaint as I think it really makes them look savage!

To command my 2 units of Native Allies I have added a Sachem leader and I really like his commanding pose.  This is another figure from the Flint and Feather range. 

Next up, this beast is the M8 Grizzly Assault Walker from Warlord's Konflikt 47 range.  As this Allied walker is fielded by both US and British forces, I have pained it in the colours and insignia of a British Armoured Division and added a British tank crewman; so now it can support my British paratroopers when I want to weird them up a bit!  I really like this sculpt and had a lot of fun painting it, but putting it together was rather a pain and it required a lot of cleaning up and some parts needed work to bend them back into shape.  Regardless, I'm happy with the overall outcome.

The Grizzly is quite a sizeable beast and dominates the tabletop. Accordingly, I wanted something imposing for the base and agonised over that for awhile.  I've tried to convey it smashing through a small forest and crushing everything in its path, both natural and man-made obstacles with the barbed wire.

A panzergrenadier's view - rather imposing!

Added to my Russian Spider Mechs from the Armour Bonus Round, this makes three Weird War walkers I’ve completed during this challenge – time to order some more!

And so I present a 28mm vehicle, its crewman, and 13 Indians with some lovely warpaint (! :-) to the judge for adjudication.  I also hereby officially increase my AHPC VII target to 1000 points, which will be a new personal best for me.
 

Jeez Paul, I sub for one day and I have to figure out how to rejig Miles spreadsheet to fit your new points goal!  

Anyway enough wining - I'm sure that I can lay some delayed action fuses to mess with the Mathemagician.  Great work on the Indian tribesmen, the warpaint looks great to me.  I'm not into the whole Weird WW2 thingy, but that Grizzly is a thing of wonder.  Is it just me but is that gun in front in a rather umm suggestive position?  Well done with the weathering and basing.  I wouldn't want to be in that panzer grenadier's boots.  I'll concur on your points tally, I figure the walker counts  as a vehicle but what do I know?
