Very much WIP at the moment as it’s too cold to varnish and finish basing, but loving this project, a reinvigorated offshoot of my Folk Horror stuff.

Various poor in progress shots here:

Great brushwork and the fine attention to detail always makes that little bit that takes it to the next level and really makes a model pop. Well done indeed. And I feel you on the cold, I have a bunch of figures waiting for their finish coat but it's been too cold to even do them in my greenhouse which is where I usually pull off my primer and finish in the winter.

Thanks. The only reason they are all French is they had the most poses of hugging the musket, so no use for more dynamic poses. When I thought of doing others, I’d used all the heads I had left.

The fluff for my men:

Horseguards, or at least those in the know at Horseguards, were surprised when the laird of  the most westerly Hebridean island volunteered himself and his militia for the duty. How word had reached Lord Summerisle was never determined, but he spoke of the old ways and the threats that lay within with some fervour.

Both he and his men were equally knowledgeable of the horrors emerging from the older, darker corners of Europe and the ways in which to confront them. It would be often remarked though, that they were also admirably, privately devout, his Lordship frequently leading his men in secluded worship. Few had cause to remark on the amount of kindling this entailed.

Were the rather nice tree-critter "changeling" from the same Etsy shop as those great werewolves? August was a while ago and I can currently find the werewolves there but not the tree-thing.

Cool project, you might inspire some new stuff for my slow-burn 17th C gunpowder fantasy/folk horror/etc project!

Getting the most out of a sprue to get a French unit. I kind of cheated with more dynamic Infantry from a different sprue and a couple of bodies from a third. But you can get a decent start from a Perry command sprue.

Looking great. Good idea with the cannon as Scatter-terrain. What are the original models you used for the Cultists? They look like Perry's, but I can't guess the range.

Post by: anevilgiraffe on March 16, 2023, 06:01:02 PM
As explained on the blog link, they are Perry ACW cannon crew. I converted two normal Nappy line infantry by scraping away the jacket and backpack straps and doing greenstuff shirts and straps. I had no desire to do that for all 13 needed, so looking around I saw that sprue had chaps in waistcoats which was as close as I was going to get to the out of uniform look I wanted.

Absolutely! The rocks any when, from a mastodon hunt to doings in the grim, dark future, though a bit less grim with the green... ;)

You really got your money's worth from the miscast! You've really given it the proper crumbling archaic look.

Took the opportunity to read this thread from the start again.

I love how you seamlessly blend different miniatures into the same world even more than the quality of your painting.
