Bhurpa Warriors completed
« on: 30 May 2012, 05:14:24 PM »
I've finished the last of my Foundry Indian Hill Tribesmen, who simply must be the Bhurpas I feel.

Three bases of charging warriors

Four bases of skirmishing warriors

A detail from the skirmishing warriors

The Mutineers 'marksman' base
There are other bits and bobs over on my Blog.

They are really nice, excellent brushwork. :)

 I think these are my favourites of the ranges the perry's did for the Foundry. So much character in these. ;D

Keep at it! You'll get there, about the time I've got enough Bhurpas for... ;)

Splendid stuff David, I am sure the Khasi will be delighted to have them in his chain of command at their earliest convenience :)

They are very beautiful, you should be proud of them.

One niggle, skin is decidedly too dark.  Many (most?) Afghans are as light-skinned as Europeans.  

Your conversions are also quite excellent.

Fine painting.
Really like your colors.
They are mounted in groups on bases.
May I ask for what set of rules?

Thanks you. They are for my own rules, "The Devil's Wind", available in the USofA from On Military Matters I think.

Are you counting them as mutineers?

Well, yes, or Native Prince Irregulars ~ after all, if the Khazi of Khalabar could have Bhurpas, why not the Raja of Rhanli?
