Sticking with KuK forces, but turning the clock back a few years, I offer 40mm homemade toy soldiers in stosstaktic mode. This figure casts well and is fun to paint.
The officers have discarded their great coats and present themselves bravely as superb targets for the Dreyse needlegun.
16 infantry @ 7 points = 112 pointsI do love these home casts, they make me want to pick up my Britain's cannon and fire matchsticks at them. Lovely poses and brushwork. Aces all around, except that you forgot to label your posts!
Fantastic!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work as usual, John (love the brave officer in his white gloves no less)! You should consider making some casualty figures for your collections, but perhaps that is an affront to the whole Toy Soldier aesthetic.
ReplyDeleteLovely looking Austrians, great looking flag!

Lovely work, John! This is a great project. :)
ReplyDeletea brilliant representation of an underrepresented conflict!
ReplyDeleteNice to see these homemade minis and painted so nicely.
ReplyDeleteYour posts are always a treat!
ReplyDeleteThese are awesome, John! Definitely a niche part of the hobby I want to try, but the missus is against home casting. Maybe one day...
ReplyDeleteLove the gloves on the officer!
