Great looking force Dean.

My French allies will be similarly sized (probably a troop unit or two fewer). Pressures of work and a recent family crisis have slowed down my painting output. However, all infantry units are complete and I currently have my two nefs on the painting table (one nef being a repaint and the other being painted from scratch) together with more sailors to crew them.


Don't texture the movement trays yet I need to talk to you about it  :)


Oh dear  ... I've just finished the 'Martian' movement trays for my new troops (my Legionaires will still have Cytherean mud on their boots - i.e. green flocked bases and movement trays) ;)

Cheers Dave. I assume the other forces of our Alliance have a nice steam tech selection as I'm a little short on that front so far. Should have a couple of balloons and a nef done for them though and IF I have time I'll try and get a couple of Papal Impervious Suits (Knights of Malta) done.

I'm a bit short of steam tech too for my ground forces. So far I have a completed 'Mars pattern' steam tank and a big close combat automaton.

Options I'm looking at include some of the following options:

impervious suits,
a transport walker,
a mobile anti-nef gun.

If we are short on armour we can make up for it via the Prussian allied contingent.

A model for yet another force! This is a concept model for my American West Scientist force. The force currently consists of Artizan cowboys as merc units with unit leaders from the nicer Deadlands range, supported by spider constructs. I decided they needed some 'regular' troops too and had an idea in mind. Thunderchicken asking after Steampunk infantry got me to actually make the conversion and test it out.

I like it so I shall do some proper versions after Salute.

This is building up to be a cracking game. I hope there will be loads of pictures for us to drool over

Thanks Ray, ignore the bore on the rifle end :) it was only a test gun build and figure conversion so I didn't bother maintaining the barrel ends, it's supposed to be a 'gatling rifle' but I think it needs shortening a bit in the final version.

He's probably a bit 'battleworn' to stand at parade with your lovely yanks, I don't think he'd get the proper respect :)

This one's not for the Salute game, unless I threw him in as a sniper or somesuch. When Salute is out of the way then I will return to my American expedition and make these guys properly.

The mini looks great, as I'm sure a whole unit would as well.  o_o

I have no problem with the rifle length, either... very inspiring stuff!

Personally, I'm about as creative as a rock!  ;)

Actually, looking at it again, I think the rifle length is fine, it's the barrel length of them all together. Shouldn't be a problem with the final build as it will have more mechanism at the back for ammo and rotation etc which will shorten the barrels a little.
