G'day All,
Well it appears that after weeks of procrastination, distraction, lost shields, more distraction and more procrastination I've finally managed to finish my latest unit of Oathmark Humans. Woot!
These chaps are dressed up in the same colour scheme as my previous submission, speed painted and based for use in a general European-analog low fantasy world. Super easy to build and paint, and they kitbash with plenty of other plastic kits for the odd head or weapon swap as desired.
In addition, I've managed to finish a small, not-so elite unit of woodsmen known as Roscoe's Rangers... ooh ra! Roscoe only has one rule - everybody is ironic.
LtoR: Jasper, Chad, Roscoe, Kelvin and Bronson. |
Led by part-time barista and amateur micro-brewer Roscoe, these five out-of-work actors/writers (aka tavern staff) banded together to help fight off threats to The Kingdom. Except on lazy Sunday mornings and Tuesday evenings, when Roscoe gets a beard trim and Chad has ukulele lessons.
And that's it for this submission. All up that makes 25 x 28mm infantry for 125 points. That should take me past my initial Challenge target. Yeah baby!
Cheers,
Millsy

Haha! Brilliant stuff Millsy. After teasing us for a few weeks on their impending arrival, it's great to see this Oathmark unit get launched from your hobbyroom slip. Lovely work, mate. As I've mentioned before, I really like the red and black livery of these chaps. Your hipster ranger unit is hilarious. I wonder how they find the time to fight baddies, what with their calendars being filled with spin-classes, tantric meditation and SCA weddings (in fact I think those 'quivers' are really just yoga mats).
Wonderful work Millsy, and congratulations on hitting your challenge target!
Nice work, Millsy, but shouldn't those rangers be ironically wearing plaid shirts and horn-rimmed specs? :)
ReplyDeleteReally nice work Millsy. Love the livery on the spearmen and the barista rangers.
ReplyDeleteWell worth any wait! Really nice well rendered colour scheme!
ReplyDeleteCool group of troops, Millsy. I like how you have reversed the colours on some uniforms to add variety while still maintaining a cohesive appearance.
ReplyDeleteThanks Stuart. It's a good trick for maintaining a varied look without increasing time/effort required apart from remembering to do it. I only use 3-4 secondary colours for hoods, cloaks, leggings, etc. but you don't notice nearly as much because of this mixed look.
DeleteExcellent brushwork Millsy.
ReplyDeleteTHey look great Millsy!
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff! The hipster unit is particularly wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThose look great Millsy - you're a great advert for this range - the Rangers are brilliant
ReplyDeleteBeautiful brushwork and like others commented, very nicely created variation while retaining the uniformation. Or something like that in poetic way. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat looking regular infantry and nice rangers!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Lovely figures, I have a batch of my own in progress!
ReplyDeleteGreat work Millsy!
ReplyDeleteRoscoe's Rangers are excellent. I bet at least one of them has an unfinished screenplay in his rucksack!
ReplyDeleteGreat work Millsy!
ReplyDeleteLove the hipster rangers!
ReplyDeleteNice block of infantry, Millsy! Fine work on the hipster Rangers, oh dear that seems to be a thing now! ;)
ReplyDeleteOi, no making fun of the ukulele, hey!? Although these figures look very good, so I am in a forgiving mood. Well done!
