Wargames Atlantic landskneckt ogres review [mildly commercial]

[lord marcus]

McDougall Designs received our stock order of Wargames Atlantic landskneckt ogres this past week.

In between filling orders and working on other business tasks, I've also completed a unit of the ogre plastics. Base is 120mmx80mm.

In review: this is an excellent set, full of detail and charm. They take washes and dry brushing well. As they are hard plastic they are ripe for conversions.

There is a hooded executioners head, which can be combined with one of the halberds (trimmed up like to be more of an axe) to create either an interesting individual or an intimidating unit.

The bearded heads also have some of the most beautiful beards in plastic I've ever seen.

While I haven't used any of the sci-fi components the kit includes, I've mused on an army of gun toting ogres with their liberty painted in swiss guard colors.

Good color scheme, great work! 👍

Very nice results, I must be weird but I liked better than the original publicity stills

What’s that basing effect, is that Vallejo paste?

[lord marcus]

Yup. Vallejo dark earth acrylic medium. Dry brushed with a bone white color also from Vallejo.
