Death in Tingtong - A Colonial Project in 28mm

I really like your background. Exceedingly well thought out and exciting, I am feeling quite sorry for the Europeans and Police already.

Your painting is sublime

First batch finished... Managed to get 20 done this morning! Only took about five hours for the whole lot.












Now to await the second batch... and start the European types...

Excellent stuff there.

Its great to see this project come to life. I am looking forward to seeing some terrain shots in due course. What are you going to use for buildings?

[Gluteus Maximus]

I agree. I like your vibrant colours, the use of the washes and especially the way you've done the long grass on the bases. Very effective!

How did you do it? My attempts at long grass tend to look like they belong in a field on the day after a British music festival

That's what I'm wondering. Anybody recommend good Chinese/ Boxer era buildings out there? The only stuff I know that might work is the John Jenkins Designs Samurai stuff but it's probably no good for the towns etc..

Brilliant stuff. You are making me want to dabble in another period!!

Love to see a gunboat 'Sand Pebbles' style to fit in with this. And it can't be long before some European Power starts supplying weapons to those cultists to destabilise the region to their advantage.....

Excellent painting and at a good rate of knots! 20 in a morning???

I like your figures. But which figure is that? That big gun.

Now to await the second batch... and start the European types...

Thanks.

Monolith Designs produces Chinese bulidings in 28mm. They are very nice multi part buildings.
Old Glory are re-releasing their Boxer rebellion Legation buildings soon I believe as well.

I've beheaded people for less     

What colour(s) did you use for the skin? I'm always curious about oriental skin

Capitaine Dreyfus - Bodyguard to Professor Hardwick


Once a valiant Legionaire, with the scars to match, Dreyfus is now a hired gun after an incident involving a Generals daughter, 2 litres of Bordeaux and a tub of vaseline...




Artizan figure... Well chuffed as he only took an hour and a bit to do!
