Hail Caesar samurai *Second unit done*
« on: October 09, 2011, 12:45:35 PM »
And some ashigaru as well  :)

Finished my first proper Hail Caesar unit but I've still got the nobori to do  :? Still working on the command base for the Sanada.

Once again, my photography skills (or lack thereof have let me down  :( ).




More on the blog  :)

Lovely stuff, as usual.  Do you have any scenery to go with these?  :D

Look great but aren't they about 1200 years too late to be fighting Romans?  ;D

Thanks for the positive comments chaps  :)

I'll get the photography sorted one day.

Lovely stuff, as usual.  Do you have any scenery to go with these?  :D

Maybe there's a little bit in the cupboard  ;)

I am extremly jealous that you can produce whole armies as well as some lovely terrain and vehicles.

Thanks again chaps  :)

I decided to hand paint the nobori and after reading on how to do it from Brian Phillips here http://www.bpfp.co.uk/Page.asp?Title=Making+Standards&Section=76&Page=1 I had a go, and it turned out rather well  :)




Sanada will be the next unit that I'll do, already done the banner for that one  :D

cheers
