Gangs of New York project

[flags_of_war]

Not sure if this is the correct forum for these but i will prob use some of the figs in the project foor EotD.

Painted the 6 of these last night for my planned Gangs of New York game. I quite enjoyed painting these figures.

These are first 6 figures that will make up my Gang of Natives or Bowery Boys. My Bill The Butcher will be getting a repaint to lead these guys into battle for the Five Points.

    "Then may the Christian Lord, guide my hand, against your Roman popery!"


Virtual Armchair General figures are really nice. Some of the poses are a bit static but i really enjoyed painting the figures and the sculpting is good. The figures are made for Gangs of New York games and they have a quite a few in the range.

I'm glad i liked them as these are first figures ive bought from the US that got me stung for Tax annd add ons.

West Wind London mob figures are also very nice. I love the sculpts that West Wind produce. I bought these along with a load of figures for Empire of the Dead which i will also be playing at soome point once i get some stuff sorted. The West Wind figure is more chunky but I think it looks ook next to the VAG figures. Ive only painted 1 West Wind figure just now as i need i want them to have more weapons so im going to have a shot at the sculpting putting.

Was on television tonight, watched the opening scene. Forgot how brutally violent it was.

I am tempted to do something similar. Maybe using LotOW or Mordheim.

A very interesting project! I hope to see much more in the future!

Lovely paintwork on these.
Gotta love those strides!
 

I have a few fellas at the casters who are perfectly dressed for this, although they are armed with shooters.

An interesting concept with much potential, many different ethnicities = lot's of mythological things/supernatural creatures immigrating to the new world.

London may be the trading center but New York is where you go for a fresh start.

A very interesting project! I hope to see much more in the future!  

Going to start work on5 points terrain board as well. These figures will be used to play test a new set of rules hopefully out next year.
