More figures for my Haitian Revolution project.
These 28 figures are all from Trent Miniatures, now available from Skytrex in the UK.
I've split them into 3 units of 8 plus the 4 command figures. I haven't added the flag yet, as I have a cunning plan in mind.
All the infantry minis come with unattached heads, (Very French Revolution eh?)
So you can add 5 different heads to the same pose and make the figures look very random.
You can see the same pose and a different head in this pic on 3 of the poses.
I think my favourite is the bear headed chap, that's a very useful head. At one time you could buy the bear heads as a separate purchase, but not anymore I'm afraid.
My plan for the flags is this.
As the troops can be used for either pro French or Anti French, I want to have the flags swapable, so I'm looking for a thin round sleeve to glue the flags to and then they can be removed as and when I need to.
The only problem is, I can't find what I need.......yet!
Love the pose of the leader on the right, his face is so expressive!
Anyway 28 figures x 5pts make me....
140 points!
TeemuL: I like your cunning plan, it is always handy to have both flags with you, when doing the fight - especially if you are not that interested in who wins, but you survive. Of course, it might back fire and you might lose your head...
Very neat brushwork, I assume your recovery is going well? At least the production quality and quantity are what is expected from you. The guys on the hex bases look especially nice.
Great work Ray. The adjustable heads really make the figures diverse. Well done.

ReplyDeleteThere's no stopping you from churning out excellent figures for your Caraibian adventure now is there?
