That's the current model. Working on a slightly polished version, with angular tiles as well.

Cheers,
Jack

Thank you!

I should finish painting the tatami platform soon-ish. I have the first three unarmoured soldiers on the way!

As you can see from blog (tag samurai): http://pippoweb.blogspot.com/search/label/Samurai I got some houses, shrine etc., that need refurbishing too

There are a few useful tutorials on my site for that!

Hopefully soon some updates. The orders from perry and Steel Fist are both late, let's see when they'll arrive!

Here I am with some updates!
I received 12 Ashigaru troops with yari from Perry Miniatures!

Lovely sculpts, although visibly old. The chunkyness is not a problem, but their sashimonos were definitely sub-par.
Here's a shot, compared with the ones i've been building recently.

..and in a couple of hours, I sculpted 12 brand new sashimonos, with a size more in line with the original pewter ones, and now they are all fancy and ready for paint!

C&C welcome,

Cheers
Jack

Progresses on my samurais. More sashimono done, and four noble samurais from Steel Fist assembled with the custom flags.

C&C welcome. Soon more terrain!

I hope everyone's aware of the impending Pendraken releases.

Huh? 28mm samurais?

FierceKitty · « **Reply #24 on:** August 03, 2019, 01:52:58 PM »

10mm, and not just samurai.

Lovely building Sangennaru - little details are lovely.

Thank you!

A first samurai is done! The Steel Fist miniatures are excellent, but i had some mishaps with the accessories: A nodachi is being sent to me, but i realized that most of the figures have the side slot for a sheathed katana which is however not included.
Very happy with the sculpt though!

Cheers
Jack

Don't be offended if he isn't - is he painted with inks or Contrast paints? Very deep colours.

Oh, definitely not. But I did use washes and glazed, as well as highlighting all the individual scales by brush.
Contrast paints are ok for miniatures with "enhanced details" like GW. Normal miniatures won't work nearly as well.
