Title: The Silver Bayonet - French Warband
Post by: Battle Brush Sigur on January 19, 2022, 11:35:19 PM
Heyhey. I hope it's alright if I post this in here. The figures will work really well within any 28mm Napoleonic collection I'm sure.

 Here's the French warband for The Silver Bayonet:

 At first I thought the figures were taller than regular 28mm figures, but the big hats just played tricks on my eyes. :D Really nice figures; made by hand. Proper characters. The casting's a tiny bit rough in places, but overall perfectly okay. Does anyone of you play TSB? I hear it's mainly a lowest-level skirmish game with supernatural dangers lurking the table as well, so I thought i'd put them in here. I'm sure these will do a sterling job in any Napoleonic skirmish game.

Beautiful painting (as we have come to expect) of some great looking miniatures!

Thanks muchly! Yeah, back when they were announced I got a tiny bit excited even, just because these are such fun looking characters. I don't play The Silver Bayonet myself, but between Sharp Practice and Sellswords and Spellslingers alone I could make good use of them! Because here's my clever trick: Just get tons of figure collections and rules sets, and you'll always find use for what ever new sculpts companies throw at you.  :D :D

@wds0855: Cheers! They're rather fun to paint. Deceptively different though, even though they got a rather 'tight' colour scheme in the end I had to switch to just painting one by one because these guys are all proper characters.

@Malegriffin: Thanks very much; that's nice to hear. :)

@Grumpy Gnome: Thank you, Sir!


Here they are again, with stuff around:

Looking good, even more so 'in situ'.

@Cat: Cheers! Yeah, usually helps the general impression, so I do those a bit more now. One or two shots against the white background so you can see the figures, and then a 'scenic' one.

@CapnJim: Thank you!

@OSHIROmodels: Thanks once more, Sir. :)

@Malamute: Yeah, I thought I built that bloody graveyard table with the big centrepiece scenery thing (based on the hub world in the Bloodborne video game), so I better put it to use outside of halloween fantasy games!

@Bloggard: Thanks, I try. :) Good to get positive feedback.

@MaleGriffin: Fantastic, thank you! :)
