My painting this year started very well but dipped in the middle as I searched for inspiration. With that in mind my next unit has been in the pile for a while but I needed to do them justice
10th Bengal lancers - Perry. OK sculpts. The chests are messy
Bengal Lancers Officer - I've painted him as a Natal Mtd Carabinier as uniform is the same and I needed one
Pack Camel. This was out of a scrap bag from DaveD and I added some large bottles and barrels
2 Greek light Cav - Northstar lucky bag
My next submission was supposed to be for the last bonus round but I forgot I had them
The Angel gang - bought during the Warlord end of range sale. Love the Angel Gang, mainly cos I also have a Surly setting
Points wise that is 11 cav, 1 animal and 5 infantry = 140 points. This meagre total should make the last week tight
Cheers Miles. If I don't come first can I win the prize for the worst photographer
ReplyDeleteI believe we also may be vieing for that prize also!
DeleteI always use the line "I want to be involved, not an observer
DeleteOh man - I really like those Bengal Lancers. They are on my list of "units I really want to paint one day" (which is a strong contributor to the "huge pile of stuff I purchased for some reason", but anyway). Whatever issues the sculpts gave you, they sure turned out great. Well done.
ReplyDeleteThey are great poses and generally good casts, just a mould release issue. Cheers
DeleteAnother great mix Martin
ReplyDeleteCheers mate, next week's is even randomer

ReplyDeleteCheers
DeleteWell done Martin. I love the lancers.
ReplyDeletecheers
DeleteI am with Peter, I love the lancers, but all so well done. Can't have enough camels in this year's AHPC.
ReplyDeleteta, gotta love camels
DeleteGreat entry!
ReplyDeletethanks
DeleteNice mixture, Martin! I truly like them all, but the Bengal Lancers are my favorite of the lot. Probably my favorite cav regiment of all time as well. You painted them up excellently too!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was much younger my Dad always said he was a Bengal Lancer
