I am keeping busy with extra figures for different projects but trying to harness the butterfly a little towards the 40mm project.
Winter afternoons mean the lights not so great so bare with the pictures please .
I have been trying to get a few Mongolian Horse finished for Sternburgs forces, the left figure is Copplestone on a Plastic Wargames Atlantic horse, the other two are Gripping beast Muslim Crusades cavalry with appropriate heads and modern weapons, the middle figure having a Mauser pistol and rifle across his back. Both of their horses are 3D prints from Ebay.
A couple more 40mm Spanish for the latest regiment in red facings. Starting to feel like I have broken the back of this one now with 27 of 40 painted.
Lastly a ash and Sabre British gun and Crew in 40mm. I have a second of these to do which I may try to get completed next as it closes the gap between my French and much smaller Allied forces.
Slightly better lighting today with a few more to share, the Spanish officer is Battlehonours 3d printed at 36mm which seems to be the nearest match for Perry 40mm figures, as the musketeer is, not quite as characterful as Perrys but a nice addition to mix in. The Foundry Hun on a Copplestone horse will be an addition to my 1920's Mongols with the rifle on his back supplementing his bow.
Then we have some based and finished figures.
The Polish MG crew are Woodbine Designs from Gripping Beast, take some just over half way on this next Polish regiment.
This base of Red Cavalry adds another base to a new unit with a Copplestone on the left and STP on the right mixing together quite nicely.
This is my first 40mm Mounted British Officer and is another Battlehonours 3D figure and I think looks very nice indeed.
And my latest 40mm Spanish these take the red faced battalion to 24 figures, still small but big enough to go on table if needed. I will be adding a Grenadier company to this regiment so watch out for that. The hidden drummer is 3d printed Piano Wargames Hessian with a metal Spanish head, the rest are all Perry's.
Hopefully as few more to share soon.
Take it easy and thanks for stopping by.

More good progress being made here Roger, I really like the RCW cavalry additions!
ReplyDeleteCheers, a few more will tick over until I am ready to pile back into the project, plenty still to do.
DeleteSuper work all round Roger, your 40mm forces are going to look the business on the table. very impressive.
ReplyDeleteCheers Donnie, I need to focus on the British and Spanish to get them somewhere near the numbers of French and try a larger battle.
DeleteI love the charm of the 40mm and wish I had started that way.
ReplyDeleteNever too late Norm, they are lovely to paint.
