VBCW New Hiterland figures

[Tym]

Some more Ladies to help in the defence of Shrewsbury on behalf of the King!

Great work on them Tym! Lovely pics with the background and all. Top notch.

edit: Darn it! Now I had to order Hinterland Trench Raiders that I have coveted for some time. I blame you!

[Mancha]

These look great, Tym.  Quite a mounted contingent.  I've always enjoyed your mustard-and-blue color combination.

Oh, and thanks for provoking Pocoloco to make a purchase.

Oh, and thanks for provoking Pocoloco to make a purchase.   

I fear that I will need to make many more purchases from the Hinterland line

[Tym]

Sorry should have noted that the gun and limber are from the Tiger miniatures range and the horses are from the Warlord ECW which can be bought separate.  Love the figures and just wish there were less with gas masks or more with the separate heads.  Mancha I will try and get some better photos for your gallery if you want? 
Excellent service from Hinterland by the way Gentlemen if you are considering to order.

I would love to post one of these pics of the gun crew in my customer gallery, if that's okay?

As for gas mask heads, I think I will soon commission Paul to round out the Trench Raiders with a couple additional sets:

1) A Unit Builder set of two or three standard poses, without gas masks, offered as a pack of six minis.  These would probably be your usual firing and running poses, all with rifles.

2) A Maxim crew.  Because one of the figures in the characters pack has a portable Maxim, I had never intended to do a full crew.  However, I already own rights to the Maxim, and the pickelhaubed crew clustered around the Maxim is practically iconic of WWI.

3) A mounted leader for the lancers.  This would probably just be a re-sculpt of the current lancer, albeit with a sword raised over her head and yelling over her shoulder. 

4) MAYBE a sniper crew.

This would probably bring closure to the Trench Raiders.  I think it’s cool that what had been intended as a one-off pack, thanks to customer interest, has become something of a full force of their own.

When are the lady Zeppelin-truppen and lady U-booters arriving?
Surely the possibilities are endless?

When are the lady Zeppelin-truppen and lady U-booters arriving?

Don't scoff - I have reference pictures of both among my Hinterland folders.   

[Paul Hicks]

Need robots that's what the ladies need:)

Jason
Please do.  Many thanks.  Will get a better picture of the  limber team next weekend.

Used the computer to get the backdrop,  I think it worked well?



All great fun.

Oh, I have get the girls in the basement painted!  Especially if the mentioned items are in the pipeline!

[leadfool]

Very cool paint job.

I may have to place another Hinterlands order.

I approve of these plans.  "My Martian Service Prussian Valkyries" are gonna eventually be getting the wheeled Wild Wild West tank as well.

And here I was, thinking to use the ladies I ordered for my VSF force... I guess I need to chance them from Prussian to Free Finnish Female Force on Mars then Just like in real history young lads went illegally to Germany to receive jäger training during the WW1 and later to take part in the Finnish Civil War, these lasses will then represent a highly discliplined and motivated Finnish females, who are out, or rather up, there in Mars to carve out a small independent piece of terrain for Finland...
