Yeah, I guess they are kind of angry, maybe the slave job is not the best... I look forward to painting the mutineer miniatures at some point, they all look really angry  lol

Mycroft Holmes, bugler, mounted artillery officer and an elephantman


Rorkes Drift characters, these will take place among my regular infantry


My last 10 redcoats, giving me a total of aproximately 30 redcoat infantry + characters and officers.

The pictures are not the best, but I have trouble taking good photos in the dim winter lights.

For the future I hope at some point to have oppertunity to get some better photos taken of my collected Empress Miniatures collection.

There's a dreamblade elephantman figure in the singles bin at the FLGS, which, now thanks to you, I must get.

I don't really know how the elephantman will fit in, but we will probably think of something.

It is an old model my brother bought 20 years ago and I found it at my moms house, she had put it on display, so I brought it home and painted it.

It should fit in somehow in our Indian setting and at the moment we are also planning to game in Africa, where he would work out too.

Or, should your British have Venusian levee troops, it would fit in there as well.

Great characters!

The Elephantman could be a result of some Indian 'magic'!  lol

(it could be a dastardly British officer in a papier-mache outfit, to scare the Indian locals)  ;D

Hehe. My mother has a few expensive looking ornaments that would look good on the gaming table but I haven't got the bottle to remove them. I get told off for even looking at them!

Nice additions to the army there Jonas, elephantman is a nice touch.

A finished British walker from Scheltrum.





The Prussians have been leading in the technology of putting steamengines on legs for a long time, but now the British has developed their own walker, the British walker is not nearly as agile as the Prussian walkers, but to remedy the lack of mobility it has a rotating turret, so even though it might get outmaneuvered it will have no problem shooting at the enemy.

Great stuff Jonas!  :-* I like the colour scheme. Will you be adding any insignia to it? I tend not to with mine, that way it doesnt restrict them to a specific nation.
