WOW the mini looks good.

Is that a woman in a Maximilian style fluted breastplate with a wooden cutting board instead of a tasset on her left hip?

She reminds me of some of the women from the movie Flesh & Blood with Rutger Hauer.

I've always wanted some attractive female Landsknechte in Maximilian plate. ;D
I look forward to seeing more.

Well... I don't know English well enough (sory  :'() but I'll try to expalin: Bruegelburg will be the huge project with a lot of different ranges of figures. for example - "metal militia" will be the range of armed citizens. the next one - peasants, then merchants, mercenaries, clercs etc.
Title: Re: "Metal militia" of Bruegelburg
Post by: Sangennaru on 05 March 2011, 05:39:29 PM
I think it's brilliant!

i think that for the style they could be combined with the Guild of Harmony and other high level manifacturers for some SERIOUS warbands! :)



so will you work tothis project for LAM in the next future?

I'll have to think about the mace - a little over the top for me - but otherwise I love that miniature.  Really, it's just a question of whether or not I do a weapon swap for him - he's too nifty not to pick up when he arrives off the Bruegelburg coach.

I wouldn't mind some nice landsknechts, but I am happy seeing all of these civilians and militia figures and hope to see plenty more.  Neotacha would like me to point out that you need non-militia females besides a barmaid - a cook, laundress, etc. 

Mainly, I hope Bruegelburg is going to be a well-populated town!

It's just a side effect of baking the brown stuff (thermoplastic), for some reason some parts of it become darker
