Title: Bullets will turn to water - Rebellion in the Sudan
Post by: Tellus on 08 June 2012, 07:44:40 PM
When I participated in LPL 4 I took the chance to paint some of my Sudan Miniatures from the Perry Range. Since than I hadn't painted a single miniature of them. But now I'm back on the wagon and will try not to get distracted by other stuff too soon :D

After having painted a couple of more Bejas I mix them with previously painted ones and took a picture:

Thank you!

No it's the "Large Desert Hill" from Battlefront. As I have not so much terrain features for that theatre and always taking pictures on a desert board with some bushes is a bit boring, it came to my mind that I had bought that Hill for my 15mm desert warfare. Although that project is on the very bottom of the list now, I'm glad to have that Hill for another purpose and will bore you to death with pictures of Bejas swarming over it, over again and again  lol

As there is no Rebellion without a proper leader, I present- the Mahdi and one of his followers Osman Digna:

Lovely paint jobs on those leaders Tellus!  :-*

I love your "streaky" style.

I've tried to emulate it a couple times with no results.

Now I've got something new. Last year Frank Bauer had build, around the Stair part of the Gordon's last stand set, a little bit more of the scenery.
It just took me a while to get the minatures painted  ::)
Just wanted to give Lowtardog enough time to watch also the appropriate Movie  ;)

Personally, I recommend Clydesdale.  Six of them ought to do the trick.












Say what?

To pull stolidly on that wagon you're on - until you get finished up.  We all want to see this finished.  You most of all, no doubt.   lol

I really had no idea what you were talking about...until I goggled Clydesdale, yeah you're right.. may be but finished is a biiiig word  :D
I really enjoyed this one and I would like to go on with the Sudan theme, but I have the work on the stuff for the Tactica in Hamburg.

@Vonkluge
