Excellent Scenery piece, however I thought those worms were natives of Saturn:

I knew I had seen something to inspire me from somewhere

@Gamer Mac - No, this one is 'neff access only' I'm afraid

Now you come to mention it, some sort of ramp or stairs hewn into the rock would be a good idea for the next one. It could be good for an artillery emplacement or some such

cheers

The next installment beckons...

Cavalry. Only a unit of ten for now. I used the Foundry 'Oriental Flesh' paint set on them but I'm not wholly convinced as of yet

The whole unit

Close up of the command section

And Captain Hokusai. I'm really pleased with his sleeve detail but I think the blue coats could do with another highlight

Oh, I really hate painting horses but some of these turned out OK, the addition of socks and muzzle flashes helped a lot. They still need a banner... Might do it this weekend...

cheers

James

Great stuff, James!

I should really look into that lead pile consisting of all those Chinese Cavalry models one day thought...

Are they Litko?

Splendid... I love cavalry and yours are no exception.

How is the smaller aeronef coming along, btw?

From a man who said I had too much time on my hands!!

I think these actually look better in blue than the miriad of khakis usually on show. If only there were more "proper" Nips for this period other than the OG and Redoubt ones (dont even think of mentioning the watchyamacallit ones)

Bloody lovely chap and the bases are great too

Rob Baker would be proud of that std. bearers hand though
