Stew's This Quar's War (more Quar 29/5)
« on: May 13, 2024, 05:35:18 AM »
Hello,
My name is Stewart, a frequent lurker and infrequent poster.  I've always enjoyed the project log posts here on LAF, seeing how projects develop and grow over time. 
Fates have aligned, as I'm starting a Quar project in a big way around the same time as others, so I thought this time, why not join in.  😁

I've got a small pile of Quar to work through.  The plan (there's always a plan) is start with some multiplayer skirmish forces, then make a terrain board, and then expand from there. 

Here are some Royalists that I've recently completed:

group shot:


close up. not that I'm the best painter, but so you can actually see them.


Most of the newly painted stuff has been on the old metal sculpts,
but here is a recent resin blister all done; the Royalist Trench raiders.



Here's the completed Royalists so far: some new, some from a long time ago..


It's an adequate start. Quar to come of course.  :)

If inclined to read blogs, there are more pics and mildly amusing prose on me blog over here:

Thanks for looking and reading.
-Stew

Nice start Stew - my Royalists are presently neglected in favour of terrain.

Great blog post, thanks for the quar background.

Looks like you've found yourself a sizeable force and enjoyed the plastic/resin crack hit. (I know those feelings)  ;D

I look forward to some interesting developments here Stew.

Thanks guys.

@SI: we’re just doing things in reverse order.  I’ll do the miniatures first and then the terrain.  Maybe we’ll switch over at the same time and have the forum covered.  😀

@Constable: glad you liked the blog post.  I try to make them amusing to make up for lack of talent.  I can definitely promise more developments but can’t promise interesting.  😀

Welcome aboard.
That is a great start.
I have been reading the PDFs from www.rhyfler.com , lots of inspiration for scenarios.

Thanks Ultra. 
It is nice that most of the PDFs are free downloads.  I happen to already have a copy of the one that’s not.  Lots of good background and such.  😀

I keep looking at these and yours are wonderfully well done.  Right now, I am really, really trying to "not" start another whole project.  I have enough of them on the go at the moment without another one.

Go on, you know you want to.

Hello again,

Thank you Snitchy and Spinal and the rest.

I've finished off some more Quar that I'd like to share.

Rounding off the Royalists are these fellows:


2 snipers, who for some reason don't have helmets but fancy hats.


an Is-Cearten


and the new resin blister of the Coftyran Officers:


That rounds out all the needed Coftyrans (for now.....)
so It's time for some Crusaders.

10 crusaders join the cause:


I especially like this fellow:


There are some more pics and somewhat witty dialog on the blog if so inclined:

Thanks for reading and looking.
extra brownie points for me to remember that ya'll over here put the day and then the month, because us Americans do it ta other way.   :)
