My Baron army

[marianas_gamer]

Another very nice unit I have wanted these fellows for a long time but just seem to constantly need more Chinese. Great painting!

Just brilliant.

Thanks to  everyone for appreciation

Your stuff is amazing to look at, it's making me envious. So, when do we see the Reds or Chinese he goes up against?

[Costanzo]

In my fantasy, there are still several things to do to complete the Asian Cavalry Division.

The miniature figure of Ungern Von Sternberg sold buon Copplestone is caricatural. So I made my Baron looking at  history, at  the photos but also at the fascinating drawings of Ugo Pratt

The rear.

Another shot.

Last.

[Rogerc]

Very, very nice. who's figure is that?

[Sir Rodney Ffing]

Great work, particularly on the Chinese style robe.  Much as I love the Back of Beyond range, I have to agree about the Copplestone Mad Baron figure, which just looks plain silly however well it is painted.

[Alcide Nikopol]

Great brushwork and stirring stuff indeed!

Dissatisfied with the grotesque Copplestone’s piece representing Baron Ungern Von Sternberg, I modelled the figure on a piece of the same firm, a mounted Mongolian. Knowing he wore coats in several occasions, I mixed Ungern looking by historical photoes and the fascinating image Ugo Pratt gave us. The Baron dressed as a cossack in 1918 and 1919, in 1919 he married a Chinese princess, from there he wore Mongolian dress with Russian contaminations. In genuary 1921 he wore a red jacket with blue trousers, in february 1921 he was designated Khan. Two of Khan’s privileges were to wear yellow dress and to have yellow bridles. So I represent Ungern, riding his magnificent white horse Stepnik.
