Yet another butterfly wandering through the ECW

[Golgotha]

Stunning miniatures and terrain especially like the river.

Thanks for the kind comments all, the parliamentarian side is going to have to wait I think as have so much other stuff on an Italian wars is taking precedent

I'll look forward to seeing those in due course. You've got a great collection and elegant project here Kerry. Cheers!

Kerry I had not seen this tread before - missed it somehow.

They are wonderfully painted miniatures - love the new regiment and the way they have been based.  The Bllody Miniatures have also been given a great lick of paint.

Having said all of that I am excited by the Italian Wars - I'm going off to see if I can find a thread on that project.

More lovely stuff

Thanks all, am just staying with the outlaws at the moment on a trip back home to combine with Partizan. I was trying to be low key and not have too many parcels arrive there for collection and found my 2 dwarfed by the 5 parcels my wife had arranged to be sent there!

Not knowing exactly what I'm planning to buy i decided to see what the Warlord plastic cavalry sets were like. I have some from Empress, Bicorne and First Corps and bought a box of Warlord thinking that I'll need lots of cavalry - using these to make a good few units is probably a good way of bulking out the collection while keeping down the cost

I finished basing these the day before leaving NZ








While they're not particularly fantastic or inspiring figures they're decent enough I think - a consideration when you're  attempting to build both sides and its not the only project!

They look fine to me

 A great addition. As you you say, they are not special figures but perfectly serviceable.

More than decent Kerry - and a considerable improvement on my unpainted horse!

[Metternich]

Just wonderful.

[valleyboy]

Thank you, I saw some particularly nice examples of Warlord Plastics painted by a chap in one of the games at Partizan so I will get more
He also pointed out a unit made up of some figures I'd never seen before which looked impressive

Those are some impressive cavalry figures.  I particularly liked the rider firing his pistol across his body (to his left).  An interesting contrast to the more typical 16th-17th century pistol-armed figure firing to the right.

A few new additions, not up to the standard set by Captain Blood himself though - not only does he paint superbly but his new foray into a Bloody Miniatures has is a boon for us all.

The Lobsters


The Flashing blades


The Moss troopers

and finally the troopers


More figure painting (but no more ECW) on the blog

Love 'em

Those look fantastic. I quite like the russet hats- I never thought of using that colour for wide brimmed hats; I am going to pinch that.
