Afternoon all, hope you are all well. A very steady couple of days for me and I've completed all the Turks I have, although there is another section on the way (which may grow into a whole platoon - who am I kidding, which will become a whole platoon if the figures are suitable),
I've also expanded all of Dunsterforce to apply to the whole of WW1 in Mesopotamia and the Ottoman Empire, so I've go as many of them to paint as I've already done)
So the last figures I had to paint were just over 2 infantry sections
To finish an independent officer who can double as an artillery spotter
I've also completed 4 more trench sections, need a few more sections and some ends but that will be enough
THis is my completed army of 8 infantry sections, 3 cannon, 2 machine guns and artillery observers and officers.
I'm really quite pleased with this force and with some additional colour from irregulars they will look cool on the table.
Scores on the doors
22x28mm infantry = 110
4 trench sections at 2 pts each = 8
total 118
Have a good week and try not to overthrow any governments, it never ends well
These Turks look great Martin. Looking forward to seeing what else yo7 come up with. Arab irregulars? Bengal lancers? An armoured car?
ReplyDeleteCheers. Irregulars was tough. Gripping Beast do some Arabs, Artizan do Lawrence and the arabs but Northstar do Spanish Civil War Moroccans and I think they will do nicely
DeleteGreat work on these Turks, Martin. That's a fine looking army - finished in very good time!! Looking forward to the irregulars!
ReplyDeleteCheers, too many foot, need some cav but hard to find any, only Tiger do some and they don't look great
DeleteLovely looking Turks and trenches! Colourful irregulars next? What fun!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Ta, irregulars will be stripey - which will be nice and could look like you are being attacked by killer deck chairs
DeleteGood stuff Martin
ReplyDeleteta
DeleteGreat work on your Turks, Martin!
ReplyDeleteCheers
DeleteNice stuff Martin, Dunsterforce and their foemen are coming along at a fair old pace.
ReplyDeletecheers, I have form for fast painting
DeleteMore great looking Turks, well done.
ReplyDeleteta
DeleteGood work, Martin.
ReplyDeletecheers
DeleteThis project seems to be developing well, Martin. Keen to see the irregulars.
ReplyDeletecheers, irregulars will be a couple of weeks at least, not been posted yet
DeleteNice one Martin, as well as the Tiger Miniatures stuff (which paint up better than they look) Minifigs have Turkish Lancers in their East Ablaze range, if you pop over to Yarkshire Gamer you'll find pics of them 👍
ReplyDeletecheers, I'll have a look on your site. THe Tiger stuff on the website is very badly painted and always makes it hard to decide to buy
DeleteExcellent stuff - I really like this project of yours
ReplyDeleteCheers, one for you in 6mm I think Scale will work well
