Looks great - cracking miniatures very well painted!

May I ask what paints you used to get the armour looking that way?

Lovely stuff!
Where did you get the clear sabot base from?

Thanks for the feedback, they are nice figures to paint.

Re the questions;
- The lacquer on the armour is a coat of Vallejo Satin Varnish, applied after the highlights are done.
- The clear plastic base is made by Jimbibbly - James at Oshiro Models - to fit 1 pence coins (he's also done a staggered line set-up too, which i'll show on the next figures I do).

Cheers, Simon.

These look great. Does Steel Fist have plans to add to the Samurai range? Samurai with teppo?
