Ronin Buntai - new pics added 4 February 2014
« on: January 15, 2014, 09:35:33 PM »
I've been putting together a number of Buntai for Ronin lately. I'm planning on hosting a campaign weekend at the end of February - which I will need 10 buntai for. Each buntai will be 400 points from which the players will select about 150 points for each scenario.

Here are the first three:

The Bandit Buntai



More of the Bandit (including pictures of the individual figures) can be seen on my blog here:

Sohei Buntai #1

The "Lion Clan" Bushi Buntai

I'm just finishing up some Peasants and Ikko-Ikki, then I'll have four more Bushi and a second Sohei Buntai to do.

I like these a lot.

The first lot are mostly old glory right?

What are the rest? Looks like a mix of things including Old Glory and Perry but cant place the rest.

Gonna have to check your blog.

You have listed the miniatures in the blog. Thank you.

Thanks!

As you say, the manufacturers of them are all listed on the blog.

The bandits are mostly Old Glory, with a few Black Hat, Assault group, Dixon and old AEG/L5R Clan War figures.

The Sohei are all Perry Miniatures.

The Bushi are a mix of mostly Old Glory and old AEG/L5R Clan War figures - with a Dixon samurai and a Perry Ashigaru (the banner carrier).

Looks awesome, the groups are very characterful.  I like the use of the AEG/L5R stuff.  Some of those figures are really nice.

Fantastic looking buntai.  A real pleasure to see how the various manufacturers lines mix with each other.

Here are a few more buntai...

The Peasant Buntai



Teh Buntai is mostly made up of Black Hat Miniatures (with a couple extra minis). More pictures of the buntai can be seen here:

http://saskminigamer.blogspot.ca/2014/01/peasant-buntai.html

The Ikko-Ikki



These are entirely Perry Miniatures. More of the Ikko Ikki can be seen here:

Finally I've had to reorganize the Lion Clan Bushi Buntai:



The rest of the reorganized bunati can be seen here:

I have five more to finish up in the next four weeks! Back to the painting!

Hi Tim
That looks fantastic, could you post the rules you come up with for the campaign, we have 7 guys at our club who have Buntai painted and your campaign looks like just the thing.

Fantastic work, Tim.  I'm particularly jealous at how neat and tidy your fabric designs have turned out.
