From BillA: Maya Warriors, Characters and Peasants (85 pts)

 After a week where it was too cold to sit at my basement workbench and paint, I'm back with more finished figures for my ongoing Mayan project. Following up on my last batch with spears, this week I've got their companions with clubs and flint-bladed "swords," as well as a few more character figures and some peasants

Group shot - everyone smile!

First up, the warriors. In "Tribal" terms, these are armed with Short Weapons. Short Weapons (one-handed clubs, swords, axes, etc.) favor straightforward tactics of running up and bashing the other guy, versus the feints that spears give a bonus to in game. These are once again divided into two formations of five, and color-coded with red and blue being the dominant accent color (or just flat out dominant color, in the jumpsuited figures' case!) to signify which formation is which. These are, once again, Jaguar Tribes figures from Lucid Eye.

Next up, a pair of character figures - a "Mayan General" from Paymaster Games, here in the USA, who do a lot of indigenous American figures, both historic and mythological, as well as a second shaman from Gringo40s. I'd previously painted another copy of this shaman in different colors as part of the Challenge. The General is holding a two-handed weapon set with a pair of flint axe heads - I'm not sure how historical this weapon is, but it looks like it'll ruin someone's day! 

Finally, four more Gringo40s figures - these are Maya peasants carrying bundles of cotton cloth, based two to a base on 40mm rounds from Renedra to serve as objective tokens in Tribal. 

All together, that's 16 28mm figures, for 85 points. No new squirrel points. And that's 34 Maya painted as part of the Challenge total, with four more primed and awaiting paint as well as another six objective tokens. After that I've got another 10 figures to assemble, prime and paint, but it remains to be seen if I'll get those done during the Challenge or not. 

From DaveD l now they are a colourful,bunch alright . I do like the Gringos Shaman , Ged does some lovely pieces . I make 16nx 5 as 80 points , but I’m rounding you to 85 for that wonderful group shot and overall brightness of scheme .
