From Kent G: 28mm Feudal Japanese (pts 120)

Well here we are this is the start of my new project
I went a little crazy earlier in the year and bought 
84 boxes of Perry Samurai and Korean metals
now I finally get time to focus on the and 
give them the attention they deserve.


I kind of painting them in sets for playing TOH
but also looking towards painting for larger battles
I have to admit I still know very little about the period
so please forgive me if I make a few mistakes along the way.

The general in this picture is from one of the sets I purchased
so I painted him exactly as the Perry site



I bought so many sets of these larger banners, and I love them
I have plans to do some highly detailed version but thought I'd start off slowly



I've started my next Clan and hope to show them off in a week or two, 
I got side tracked by another project past couple of days which I'm also 
excited to present this week fingers crossed.


Next up a couple off cool figures from another command pack.
You probably can't see it but the red and purple on
 the horses have five layers of colour, just part of my madness.







For points 20 x 28mm @ 5pts = 100pts
2 x 28mm cav @ 10 pts 20pts
Grand total of 120 pts

From Millsy:

Very nice indeed Kent. Hearing you talk on and off for a while about your Japanese project has been tempting to say the least and these are not helping maintain a level of resistance I have to say.

The bold colour choices and detail you've packed in here really suits them. Lovely stuff!

Another 120 points for your total!

Cheers,
Millsy

  1. Bloody lovely paint jobs. I'm always slightly intimidated at the thought of painting my Sengoku era troops, you've done an excellently inspirational job!

  6. Great to see some Samurai - just thinking if you are gaming the Invasion of Korea then think you will be able to Google and find out the specific various sashimono" details for the invasion units.
