As I want to take advantage of a ride with Lady Sarah's Balloon to Snow Lord's Peak I needed a 'female' miniature of some kind. Luckily enough there was one in a recent order from Wargames Foundry...
You will notice this particular 'nun' has rather masculine features. An excellent fit for my purposes though as I intend to use this nun as a marker for the German "Nuns with guns" Shabby Nazi Trick in the Blitzkrieg 1940 handbook for Chain of Command.
And honestly, even if the catholic church acts as if they're still stuck in the 13th century, we're living in the 21st century, right? So maybe this 'lady' is just a little undecided as to her gender? Who am I to decide that she is a he or vice versa?
So without further ado it's on to Snow Lord's Peak with an additional 40 points towards my tally, which should be enough to balloon (see what I did there) me over my initial target of 300 points.
From DaveD.. Well she's very different and every so slightly scary! Up , up and away it is you !
Beautiful brushwork Nick - the face is terrific. I think this type of nun was a common fixture in many Catholic schools (shudders).
ReplyDeleteGreat work Nick :)
ReplyDeleteGreat brushwork again Nick - brilliant stuff.
ReplyDeleteLovely finish on your gender nonspecific nun!
