Painting and Modelling

Color came out wierd on this one for some reason, oh well. Here's a quick look at a couple halflings from Grenadier who are joining my gang to add some missle support.

I took last weekend off to go to the mountains and had a host of things going on this past week, but I finally got a little brush time this weekend. We also got a bunch of Mordheim terrain assembled so we'll be ready to rumble fairly soon!

The fellow on the left will be the leader of this warband. A small conversion to give him the mini-crossbow. The one on the right is the last of the warriors I'll be doing. Also converted- from a scythe to the krautmasher, which I find an amusing weapon choice. That only leaves the thief, and the scouts to do, and then a couple non-halfling gang members.

These guys will probably be my 0-2 youths in the Halfling warband. This is my first archer todate, which would be concerning considering archery is the only thing halflings have going for them, but I have located some more which are now en route from Italy.

Well actually that was finished because the recipient's birthday is this week, so it seemed timely to get it wrapped up. Proper pictures will follow tonight. My Empire forces got to trot out to a lopside (1100 vs 1400) battle this weekend and snatched a victory from the Dogs of War in our fledgling campaign. No newly painted units were fielded for either army, though my Rebellion archers ...

It is the time of the half man. Fear his dimmunitive stature and his shortened stride.


Building a mordheim gang. :-)

I'm getting back at this painting biz a little bit more now and again.

So now that I got the hats straightened out, I was able to get some final photos of Marshal Ney and staff.
(also votable)

It was pointed out to me today when I shared the final pictures of the Taco General Staff that I had in fact failed rather stunningly in my limited research into the correct uniform colors. Aparently all bicornes and the like were black in the French army. A cusory look around the web confirms this. . .not sure how I missed it before.

But whats more, how did the people I shared the work in progress with miss it as well? I expect more from my readership! Yes thats right, the both of ...
