Some 1st Afghan War minis.more 44th added.
« on: 28 May 2021, 09:43:36 AM »
Some Iron Duke Brits and Perry plastic Afghans,28mm.
Painted the Brits up to represent light company ,the Afghans could be used as a large tribal unit in games of Rebels and Patriots,or split into a standard 12 fig unit and a small 6 figure skirmish unit.
Skirmishing/firing Afghans to follow.
I also noticed yesterday on the Iron Duke Facebook page more greatcoat British variants are on the way.
Thanks for looking in🙂

Very tidy painting.  :-* :-*

Given that you sold your 1st Afghan War Studio Miniatures (to me  ;) , are you now investing in Empress to replace them.   lol lol

My thumb was in shreds!  lol

Noice! And I do like that basing system too. A bit different from the norm, yet very effective.

Thanks Plynkes , it speeds moving the minis around the table too! :)
