Merciless Ming
« on: March 24, 2013, 06:57:27 PM »
As the wait for Cavalcade to add to their range grows ever longer and there is no sign of Alan & Michael coming to my rescue, I decided to convert (I use the term loosely) some different infantry types for my Ming army.  Of course if Plynkes Theory takes effect now that I have spent the time and effort doing these the market will be flooded by new models that would have saved me the bother ;D.

Original spearmen


Which I originally saw as crossbowmen


and then got carried away and did swordsmen


I also did some from the command pack


cheers Svennn

Great stuff mate  8)

I am surprised that they haven't done them yet but I'm going to assume, nay hope, that they will as more research becomes available. It happened with the Koreans...

cheers

I need to get these all out for a family group shot, there are over 60 done now but as I was just having a quick play with my new camera I took this of the latest ten.
