Title: 28mm Sengoku Jidai project
Post by: Osmoses on August 14, 2019, 05:06:35 PM: A few months ago, I took a bit of a break from 6mm Sengoku to paint some 28mm samurai, just a few to maybe play Test of Honour or something. Needless to say, the whole thing got out of hand rapidly and resulted in the beginnings of the construction of part of the city of Sakai, along with learning more about Muromachi-era pottery than I ever thought I would. Never ceases to impress me where the hobby can lead you. Anyway, this is where we are now. Figures mostly Kensei, with the odd one from other ranges. Buildings mostly TT Combat (heavily modified, especially the roofs), with the odd scratch-built one.

I'm a huge fan of your mission creep - long may it continue!

Thanks - one of them is definitely from my hometown Siena as he sports a black and white dress with the city colors ;-)

Post by: Osmoses on May 20, 2021, 06:27:27 PM: Cheers. I mostly paint groups with the same pool of colours for each group, and mix them up afterwards.
