TWD goes to the NWF (at last a game! 31/10)
« on: February 16, 2016, 04:24:54 PM »
I cracked and bought some Artizan NWF models.
Here's the first four that I did as a test.



They paint up something loverly (and were dead quick to do as well).

Going to get me a small force ready for games of TMWBK when they're rleased later this year

Very nice, you should update the thread as you build up the force. TMWWBK is going to boost wargaming interest in the Colonial period and also in figure releases for the period I hope.

Fine stout chaps!

I'm considering doing some hill/mountain upgrades for my scenery that may suit the Afghan regions...

They look splendid old chap... they'd look even better if you pick their helmet straps out with a touch of brown.

Good stuff Tom....  8) 8) 8)

I reckon you're correct in your assumption that TMWWBK will set the tables ablaze once it's published :)

Those turned out awesome.  Step 1:  Pick a scale.  Step 2: See someone's awesome miniatures in a different scale.  Step 3: Reconsider everything.  :o

The answer to that of course is multiple scales... :o

Then you can scale the different battle sizes.
