The Crew of the Fenian Ram
« on: May 06, 2021, 02:14:29 PM »
With the release of IHMN second edition, I started up a new company!
The Fenian Ram was a submarine commissioned by the Irish Republican Brotherhood in 1881. However, funding disputes prevented it from seeing combat. The addition of airships and boats to IHMN was the factor that got me started on this project!

The models I'm using are from Lead Adventure Miniatures. I really like their style, and I've wanted to paint some for ages.
I have to scratch build a submarine to go along with them!

All the photos are on my blog (they are too large to post here)

OK, following with interest. Might help us who are far away to know where those figures came from?
Cheers,

They are from Lead Adventure Miniatures VSF range. I got these on Miniaturicum (as I live in the EU). I think Magister Militum stock them as well  8)

Outstanding!  :-*

I have pushed a Fenian Ram around a table, year or so ago, but it was flying in the Martian skies of Space 1889. I DO hope to hear of further adventures from you group!

Alas, our fair O'Connor fell to his death in our engagement, but not before sending many Brit sailors to wait for him...

Thanks! A flying Fenian Ram? Sounds magnificent! Have you posted pictures of it anywhere? I'd love to see it!
