From RayR Donnybrook - Pioneers (100 points)


For this entry you'll all be surprised that I've gone all Donnybrook again??
Never?
I've been beavering away getting some Pioneers or Sappers or just plain workmen painted up.
The first 6 figures plus equipment are not Nine Years War figures (Shock Horror!)
They are infact a lovely ECW set from Bicorne Miniatures, that'll cost you only £8
to buy unpainted. I've painted them up in a variety of colours, so they could be for
either side in my Donnybrook skirmish games.




The second set of 10 figures are from Reiver Castings, they are painted up with the green 
troos and stocking for Kirke's regt. But once again could be used for any side during the war.
They could even be added to a Civilian Mob, or added to other troops to make a Rebel unit for Sedgemoor.




Lastly, are 3 figures and some equipment from Dixon Miniatures.
The Engineer from a previous entry is also included in this pack.




And here they all are in a group shot.
19 figures, 2 wheelbarrows, 2 barrels, piles of wood and a discarded coat.......
Not sure how many points this time, I'll leave that up to Miles??

MilesR: Nice little group here Mr Ray, all working away for the betterment of the villages.  I really like the 'extras' so will toss in another 5 points bringing you to a cool 100 pointer fro this submission

Well done Ray!

  1. I suspect this is more Sappers than you will need for a Donnybrook game. But I am delighted to see them none the less. Top notch buddy!

    1. Maybe a few more than I do need, but they may also find there way into a Sedgemoor Rebel unit.

  3. You almost had me believing you when you said you don't have time to paint anymore...Guess you need them Sappers to fill your sandbags!

    Nice entry mate.
