From TomL: Mounted Egyptian command, History (50 points)

 


These are Perry Miniatures British commanders of the Egyptian army (Hicks Pasha, Baker Pasha & Slatin Pasha). They are the last remnants of my abandoned British Sudan project. These were assembled and primed but never painted and garnered no interest when I sold off the painted and NIB portion of the forces.  Perhaps they will find a new home once painted…

Painted mostly with Foundry paints. Horses were based with colored primer and stained with oil paint as per a helpful guide from the Yarkshire Gamer I saw long ago (Thanks Ken).

Hicks Pasha & Baker Pasha


 
Slatin Pasha


 

3 x 28mm mounted miniatures = 30 points
History = 20 points 

For a total of 50 Points.


 

I will be away from my painting desk for a week, so I will see you all again in the new year. Hope it is a healthy and happy new year for all.

Great looking Egyptian commanders, Tom! Ken's recipe has done you good service as your horses look excellent. I also like the arid groundwork - very in-theme. Well done!

  2. Great job, I’m sure minis as lovely as these will have no trouble finding a new home.

  3. Those are cracking figures Tom. Nice bit of horse flesh and love the detailing on the back of Slatin’s jacket.

  4. Thanks all. Kens guide really helps when you’re painting large numbers of horses. I never would have finished my sarmatian cataphracts without it.
