My new project has finally been started!
25mm Ottoman Turks and Yes they're for Donnybrook!
These are quite obviously some Command and standards, who I thought, would be a great start.
The figures and flags are from the most excellent Warfare Miniatures.
To be total honest I'm not an expert on the Ottomans at all so back in 2019, I asked Mr Hilton to work out some Donnybrook army lists for me, which he did.
Then he offered these lists out for customers to buy.
So these 5 figures are the start of my Donnybrook, 4 point Ottoman infantry army.
Here's what my army will be made from
Ottoman Infantry Force
Unit if Elite Jannissaries armed with flintlock muskets 4 models
Unit of Drille Tufeckci musketeers arned with matchlock muskets 8 models
Unit of Recruit Segban musketters armed with matchlock muskets 12 models
Unit of Recruit Irregulars - Anatolian or Balkan with improvised handweapons 12 models
Easy one for the points in this post.
5 x 25mm figures = 25 points
Splendid looking Ottomans! How exciting to hear your starting this army, I've just been looking at them on the TAG site, very tempting!

They're a very colourful army! So its Donnybrook Ottomans for you as well then Iain?
DeleteGreat work love the flags
ReplyDeleteThanks Adam.
DeleteLovely flags and command stands! Very colourful
ReplyDeleteCheers Benito!
DeleteBeautiful figures and flags, Ray. What's the source for the flags? (There's a relevant book that may be of interest to you I briefly reviewed for Miniature Wargames. PM me for the review, if you want it.)
ReplyDeleteYes please Noel, can't seem to find your email address. I know I had it???
DeleteGreat work Ray.
ReplyDeleteThanks Paul.
DeleteLovely work Ray. I really enjoy the mix of colors you put into the figures. Well done!

Thanks Chris. Its the Ottomans idea not mine.
DeleteThose are really lovely Ray. Wonderful standards.
ReplyDeleteGlad you like them Peter.
DeleteGreat work, sneaky to get the Hilton chap to do you leg work. I approve, one day you will be senior management
ReplyDeleteheheh
DeleteThese colourful figures will be an excellent addition to Donnybrook!
ReplyDeleteI think they will.
DeleteThis may seem a bit odd but I love the hex bases. I am using them for any skirmish system that isn't hard on basing (and most aren't).
ReplyDeleteAnd why not too? I'm only using them for command figures. The Rejects are a funny bunch, If I didn't, they wouldn't know who was who........especially Lee H!
DeleteYou've stolen another march on me Ray. Now you're doing in my period! Really, well done mate. They look superb.
ReplyDeleteCheers Curt, they're a great army to paint up.
DeleteExcellent Stuff - thumbs up Jez
ReplyDeleteCheers Jez.
DeleteGreat looking minis, though I'm shocked to hear that you plan to use them for Donnybrook.
ReplyDeleteTerrible eh?
DeleteA spot of Donnybrook makes a Challenge, nice to see 👍
ReplyDeleteIndeed it does!
DeleteVery nice and colourful!
