Test of Honor - Rogues and Ruffians

[Digits]

Ta.

Ok painted my first GFN Samurai.   Nice clean figures.



And good news is I think they will mix with the few Perry minis I have too.

[Digits]

Two more done

[has.been]

Nice.

[blacksoilbill]

Very nice indeed.

[Digits]

Thanks chaps.   

I can’t really work black, so quick and dirty ninja!

[Jack Hooligan]

The black on the ninja looks great to me. Where’s he from?
Beautiful table and minis!

[Digits]

Perry miniature I think, cheers.

[EnclavedMicrostate]

Can confirm; I've got one. https://www.perry-miniatures.com/product/sam41-ninja-various-weapons/

[Digits]

Yup that’s the one.  Probably have the rest of the set somewhere too.


More progress with the GFN minis…..Ashigaru, mostly with yari.

Just ordered a couple wall sections and an Inn from Oshiro models….hopefully that will give me a little backdrop soon.   

I was looking through my bits boxes and found these…result!



I was also trawling through the internet and there is some cool looking printed scenics…….but then everyone is using it and their tables all look the same 🙁

So I’m trying to resist the urge to buy it, and will try to scratch a few bits like pond and zen gardens myself.  Looking at pictures of other peoples projects….the roads tend to feature a crazy paving type of theme.  It got me thinking…..I have a tonne and a half of slate in my garden…..


So, to make a test piece.

2mm plasticard……cut to about 7cm wide strips.  I will need to buy another sheet as this won’t be quite enough.  Bevel and distress edges so not too square.




Then a quick trawl across by slate bed patio area for some flat sided chips, a quick wash…



Then superglue to secure to plate along with sand to fill gaps.  I think it works.  A bit rough for any cart wheels I will admit! Lol.  But I’m going to paint up this section and see how it looks before spending an hour in the garden digging up chips.

So much to love in this thread! 👍

[Digits]

Cheers fella….let’s hope so 😉

I ordered some more miniatures today.  The rogues and ruffians set plus some Ikko rebels that will help bolster the bandits that will be my first opfor.

The ruffians set has some interesting minis in it.

I also have the bow and arquebus Ashigaru to paint up yet so lots to come.



So the roads worked I think!  Just need to make more of them….






Quick set up…..Ninja attack!

[Digits]

Now THAT’s service!

Ordered from eBay yesterday…arrived this am!   Thanks Wonky Head!

I ordered the rogues and ruffians the first of which I’ve just undercoated here!   Looking forward to painting these!  Also on paint table three Ashigaru with teppo and an unarmored Samurai.

[Kikuchiyo]

Very cool collection

[Digits]

Cheers.

Three Ashigaru with Teppo (arquebus).
