These are a mix of Perry plastics and Dixons that I bought in a junk shop for about 25p each.
There are 3 full regiments and 1 regiment missing a command stand - 76 figures
Next up another of the Hasslefree hot chicks in fur figures
The ice is a sheet of mica and nearly works
Finally some Picts. These are Newline, cheap but basic.
The command figures are better
Damage done
83 28mm infantry - 415 pts
6 28mm cavalry - 60 pts
That's 475 pts. Off to paint some more ACW
Hoi Martin, what a fabulous collection of figures! All equally brilliant, if I was asked to name a favourite it would be the ACW figures. You have really managed to capture the atmosphere of the conflict with these figures. Using mica as ice-sheeting is an inspired trick I have not heard of before and I will look into for sure. The lady does look the part on it if a tad cold with just that fur-coat to protect her from the elements. The Picts are great with some nice plaids to finish this post. All in all some brilliant stuff!
Nice points bomb Martin :)

DeleteGreat work Martin. It would seem we have a lot of mica around here the Canadian prairies...
ReplyDeleteLovely stuff it is too, very icy. Cheap from geological supplies, cuts well, should have put it on the base first.
DeleteGetting back in the groove nicely
ReplyDeleteYes, more acw then Normans I think
DeleteGreat stuff. cheers

DeleteTremendous points bomb, there, Martin!! Well done. I love the Picts with their painted shields. I well remember doing mine and thinking what a nightmare the spears were to glue in the single hand! I do like the Hasslefree maiden - brilliant work with the basing!
ReplyDeletecheers, I shall rephoto them all and repost. speats and hands, don't get me started
DeleteGreat bomb Martin, a true variety. Love the basing with the ice.
ReplyDeletethanks. ice is great, more forward planning needed
DeleteReally nice ACW and picts, I quite like newline, not too fancy!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
ta, newline good solid wargames figures, really cheap. like all manufacturers occasionally poor.
DeleteThat mica idea is clever, I haven’t seen that before.
