Atmospheric Llama shot!

Llamas just outside Machu Pichu itself (llamas being mountain animals and Machu Pichu actually being in the rain forest, they're just there for the tourists)

Splendid - thanks! I've just started work on a few llamas - these pics are perfectly timed.

I would not paint your Llamas atmospherically Oxiana as they will just look black on the table

There is a Llama farmer just down the road from here, I often pass it walking the dogs.

Straight off the paint table:

I've just started getting stuck into my first unit of Inca warriors - I realised that all I've painted so far are non-combatants. Still, if anyone wants to come up with a scenario based around three llamas, a mummy, a guy with knotted string, a woman with corn cobs and a little girl with a puppy, then feel free!

Done. If, of course, you actually mean the Feathered Serpent!

Lovely stuff Paul, very much looking forward to seeing the warriors next.

As far as I'm aware. Monolith have a pretty grim reputation in some quarters as they disappeared completely off the radar for a while, their Yahoo group died and their website hasn't been updated in a couple of years. That said, in September I ordered some figures from them and had brilliant service - from an initial email asking if they were still alive to unpacking the actual parcel was 72 hours. I've got a few figures to get through though before I start thinking about scenery...

Oh really thats good news.
I stopped collecting the 40mm stuff because I thought I couldn't get them.
By the way excuse my ignorance but what is this Feathered serpent you mentioned?
A blog or yahoo group?

At last, some fightin' Incas:

The guys in white are by Outpost, the others are Foundry.

It took me a while to settle on colour schemes for these boys. Lots of pictures of Incas have pretty crazy textile patterns - checks, zigzags and the like. If I was painting one or two I might have been tempted, but with units it seemed easier to go with simple colours. Similarly, I've left the shields pretty blank but I may come back to those again at the end and paint something fancier. I do have a standard bearer coming up that is flying a more elaborate standard though - pics later in the week. And I've started on the palanquin too, hopefully that'll be done some time next week.

Missed this query, sorry:

It's a Yahoo group: http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/The_Feathered_Serpent_Project/. All gaming things Aztec, Inca, Maya, Conquistador and the rest.

Very nice white, very nice all round. They go together well dont they.

Before I read your text I was thinking to myself, you do not need to paint checks on these to make them look good then!

Now I am even closer to digging mine out and starting them - its all your fault

That'll be the little girl with the Inca take-away

Better and better, nice Inca units and civilians.
