EotD Gentlemans Club - Zendarians

[jscottbowman]

I found faction sheets on the Westwind forums: http://westwindproductions.co.uk/forums/index.php?board=22.0

If you go up a level and click on the Official Downloads you'll find the Gentlemen and Jackanapes that has the current special character stats/info in it.

Love the figures.

Thank you Sir, I will check that out.
Cheers

Lovely faction. Top notch.

[Mason]

Great job.
Good enough to convince me to take a look at that line of shinies!

Thanks for heads up on other figures I can add to the faction

check out North Star's huge Austro-Prussian War range too - the ex-Helion range:

Some of the figures are a bit clunky looking, but some very nice characters in there amongst the multitude of infantry variants. Several figures perfect for Ruritania,  including both Prussian and Austrian officers waving swords!

Really nice looking set of models there.

Thanks again Captain :-)

Gorgeous work there!

I'm doing my Zendarians in bright yellow jackets.

Mine are more 'mustard', at least they will be when I can get a colour that works. Of course, my 'Zendarians' (composed of Westwind Zendarian Troopers, some Zendarian Vampire Hunters as officers, and some Ironclad VSF Prussians for when they get round to fighting on Mars) are actually Ruritanians, with their distinctive Ruritanian 'gold' jackets, and part of the Astro-Hungarian Empire...

Great looking figs. It has been my experience the Parroom stuff is it bit on the "true 25mm" side. This true with them?

Is that from Hope's novels Orc, or your own preferred scheme? I need to go back to the books really - in my mind I have conflated too many of the details from Royal Flash with The Prisoner of Zenda and Rupert of Henzau!

Is that from Hope's novels Orc, or your own preferred scheme? I need to go back to the books really - in my mind I have conflated too many of the details from Royal Flash with The Prisoner of Zenda and Rupert of Henzau! 

The only details I could find about uniforms in the books were:

1 - Rudolf wears a white uniform for his coronation;
2 - Police sergeants in Strelsau have a star on their collars and 'lace' on their cuffs (which I assume means some kind of braiding or frogging or something);
3 - recipients of the Order of the Rose (of Ruritania) get to wear red or red-and-yellow sashes.

I just went for a colour that a) wouldn't look Prussian; b) wouldn't look Austrian; c) wouldn't look Russian; and d) wouldn't be red (as I have Brits too). Doesn't leave a lot of choices!

Yellow seemed the obvious way to go - also, as one of my officers serves a dual role as my version of Colonel Sapt, Colonel Senf, and his English counterpart, Colonel Hammond-Mustard, it had to be 'mustard' jackets really...

Thanks.
I think they scale quite well with the Westwind figures, though have to say they are on the 'chunkier' style, a bit like comparing FrontRank to Perrys.
I'll try and do a comparison shot for you.

Another faction done for EotD - Vampires:

I also managed the figure comparison shot for 'the Baron'... scroll down towards end of blog post.

[BaronVonJ]

Many Thanks. They look big. Good. My VSF stuff is all over, but the first Parroom figs I bought were the "masked minions". They are tiny compared everybody else (a mix of Foundry, Renegade (huge), Empress, Tiger, etc.). Which was disappointing.

[Brummie Thug]

They look great I disagree about the size especially if you take into consideration the basing.
