Title: Tupi archers
Post by: stone-cold-lead on May 16, 2015, 09:41:53 PM
Not sure which board this belongs on but I guess this is as good as any. A set of Copplestone Castings Tupi archers I painted last week. Quite fun to do and turned out fairly colourful for such simple models.

Very, very nice.  Have you the Portugeuse "conquistadors" to oppose them ?

I think it's just a one off commission unfortunately. It would certainly be nice to paint up a bigger unit though and also do some opposition but that's not for me to decide.

The previous five are with their owner and I don't have any scenery unfortunately.  :(

It's been a while but earlier this year I painted up yet another set of Tupi archers for this commission and last week I got to do a set of chiefs as well. It's great to see this group grow even if they aren't my models.

Simply exceptional paint jobs, and the terrain on the bases is just as exceptionally good!

These are some tremendous paint jobs! By chance do you know how the Copplestone Tupi scale with Eureka's Tupi?

The eureka Tupi are a good head shorter and don't mix well in my opinion, I had the whole range of eureka and they are nice minis but are a lot smaller and as I had 60 botocudo and tupi from copplestone ended up selling them on

Depending on what you are using them for both ranges have different tribes such as Tupininkin, tuminamba etc discernible to an extent by their hair styles
