Onna-bugeisha (Female Samurai) from Bad Squiddo Games
« on: December 05, 2017, 04:04:25 PM »
Hello! We've got some new minis you should like, they've already been flying out and I haven't had a moment to advertise them outside of Facebook. A good start!

Firstly, apologies that some of the photos aren't great, the amazing John Morris is going to paint the rest up soon, so for now you have some photos of greens and my shoddy inking!

Eight in total!

The beautiful 3 painted!



the whole gang together



Some greens (better than my quick inking photos!)







Super thanks for reading

Annie, any idea how these would sit with Black Hat Miniatures samurai or Perry figures? I'm somewhat ashamed to say I don't have any of your figures (yet!).

I'm planning on getting a few soon for my Ronin buntai to fill it out a bit more...

If you're looking for suggestions for other Japanese female minis, the one thing that I've been looking for that no one seems to have in 28mm is a traditional miko...

Gozen aside, do we know of any others? I'm sure they existed, but are there hard data?
The laws of probability do not apply to my dice in wargames or to my finesses in bridge.

The sculpts are very nice and the painting of the figures faces brings out the fact that they are female.
Not sure I could come anywhere near as close as that.

I would reiterate the question regarding comparability photos with Perry casts because they tend to be slight in comparison to many other companies.

Unlike some I am not averse to big chested ladies but I think what you are doing is brilliant, war gaming needs more female figures, I do believe that maybe half the population is female although you wouldn't think so looking at most manufactures range. Well done for correcting this imbalance.

Here is a size comparison with Back Ninh and Perry's, I think they fit really well together

They are good height wise but look a bit chunkier but not excessively so. thanks for the photo - much appreciated.

These miniatures look marvellous.

Another addition to the 'must have list'.
