In the meantime I've been painting stuff that takes my fancy. It's another hotch potch of stuff.
1st up some 1930s - 40s civilians. These will double for VBCW and some possible gangster future games. These are mainly from the defenders of the realm set from Warlord.
Some rural and worker types. I swapped out a lot of the improvised weapons for rifles
A couple more Gorillas for Mr Lee - Cheers Kyle. These are very nice figures, harder to give good hair tones to than their King but they look very mean
3 ancient Greeks, no idea where I got these from
Warbases Tachanka (or something like that) Looks great from afar but close up the crew and horses are not very well modelled
That is
15 infantry - 75pts
3 cavalry - 30 pts
2 40mm gorillas 14pts
Tachanka == 3 horses, 3 crew, maxim gun and cart = 45ish
Total is 165 or something like that.
Finally thank you Sander for being my minion. The kind words are much appreciated, sorry about the maths
The pleasure, as they say, has been all mine Martin I do hope to see some more of your work next week before Challenge's End and perhaps next year?!
Cheers Sander
Great work Martin! I love the pulp/40s civilians and the Tachanka is awesome. I have the Eureka one - nice, but a complete swine to assemble.
ReplyDeleteCheers, mine was easy to build once you work out that the maxim doesnt fit on the back
DeleteNice work on the mixed bag Martin :)
ReplyDeletecheers
DeleteGreat work sir!
ReplyDeletethank you
DeleteI like the civilians and the armed rural types, the gorillas and the tachanka are great!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
cheers
DeleteBonkers.
ReplyDeleteapparently
DeleteGreat job Martin.
ReplyDeleteThere is something about those Gorillas...spooky and funny at the same time. And I find myself wishing they had RPGs...clearly I have gorilla issues...
Ta, weapons are separate. rpgs and gorillas would be maximum overkill. Maybe add a gatling gun
DeleteEureka does gorillas with RPGs... I really like yours, and the Tachanka is fun as well.
