Very nice.
 :-* :-*

Not only have you inspired me into buying some Imperial Dwarves, I have now purchased some Ngoni due to this thread.
 :D

I must confess that I shall be painting them in a strictly non-historical fashion, though.
 ;)

Another excellent set of figures, and great basing too.

Terrific as usual!!!

I always loved the white war paint look. I don't know if there's an actual basis for the use other than festive though. I'm going to put some on my all the same anyway.  lol

Inspiring other painters is great! Ngoni is a good choice Mason, like the miniatures as well.

Thanks again.

Re: Me, myself and I in the Dark Continent - Update June 2015 - Wangwana
« Reply #130 on: June 26, 2015, 07:47:21 PM »
Hello,

for a long time this project was on hold. A few days ago I managed to paint up some more Wangwana for the Arab army.
Rather than fix them on multi bases I tried something new.

They are all on 5 cent coins and I build a multibase for them by using the usual 40x60mm base. I made use of neodyn magnets that will keep them in place once put on the base. So I can use the miniatures for DitdC and skirmishing systems as well.

I need to get back into my "normal" painting mojo as I think the paint job on them is not that crisp as for the other miniatures I have done for this project. Anyway - some new additions to go further with it.

Both your figures and the bases are looking great, Alex. Smashing stuff, and many thanks for sharing!

Good to see this come back to life. Was one of my favourite threads last year so nice to know there is now more to come.

My sentiments exactly.
Good to see it continue.
 :-* :-* :-*


I like the bases too.
I am going to do something similar with my Melniboneans (when I get around to them, that is...) as I want to be able to use them for skirmish as well as WFB3rd.
You should have seen the kerfuffle on the Oldhammer forum at the mention of cutting their base tabs off in order to fix them to washers... ;)
