Seminoles (more pics added 29/3)

[oxiana]

I've just come off a painter's block that lasted nearly two months. Phew! Here are the first things my brushes alighted on, once I'd seen the light again. Two Seminole chiefs by Conquest:



Lovely minis to paint, even if their arrival in the post accompanied by a demand for some rather severe customs fees was one of the things put me off painting them in the first place! Anyway, they're done, I'm happy and I'm actually looking forward to the next batch, instead of feeling reproachful every time I see my boxes of unpainted lead in the corner of the room... It's good to be back.

Thanks all - it's always nice to get some encouragement when you haven't painted in a while.

 They are beautifully done and are tempting me into a war that previously held no interest for me.

Good to hear. What's really needed is an enterprising mini company to supplement their range with some militia that would fit into any generic 1830 America setting... Maybe those guys on Plate E of the Osprey Seminole Wars book? I'd say half a dozen or so figures would work, and if anyone could get them to me by, ooh, just before the middle of October, that'd be grand...

I'll ask around and see if I can think of any companies that might be able to help. Just so as I know what to ask for, can you provide a link to the relevent page or plate E I am not sure what the militia will look like?
(if they looklike generic Texians then Bobs your uncle! )

I've just done this scan:



See anything you fancy, guvnor? 

[Malamute]

Hmm not quite what I was expecting for militia
They are quite a uniformed lot, not like those rag tag Texians I am used to and most individual with the C18th leggings etc.
Not sure I will be able to deliver those...Sorry
On a positive note, I like the fisherwoman
