From MartinC - United Aquebusiers of Benetton (48pts)

 A man can only paint so much brown before he needs to reset his retina. I do have another project to pass away the evenings. I have a load of 10mm 16th Century Italian wars figures. Yip I'm painting 10mm Landsknechts. It the honourable way to concede the race to the top in January. I impulse bought 1000 figures on ebay but they were all infantry so I got a load of cavalry and artillery for Christmas

I've started with Landsknecht aquebusiers (clue in the title). The title came from Dennis on the chat, although the Duchy of Benetton would be a nice imagiNation

So I have painted 48 of the little buggers. They are in bases of 4 and as I'm planning to use Kings of war rules 2 of these will make a troop. It means that a horde sized pike block can be a square. There are many pike blocks to follow. I have a neat idea for battles. Set the terrain, decide the defenders and attackers and then get the opposing generals to bit for the various mercanary units before the battle starts.

They were fun to paint, get a primary colour and paint random parts of each figure, then get a new colour and get back to the start. The hard part is getting the back to match the front, but who really cares with 10mm Landsknechts.

So 48x10mm infantry = 48pts

To follow will be loads of Chamber posts as I've done a level. Either tonight or tomorrow. Depends if I want to wear out the cabin crew

Victim #13? So many today, that I've lost track.

Cracking work on these tiny handgunners and 48 points in the bag.
