Comparison shot of a Caidian and a Bulldog without arms: It's probably fair to say the Bulldog *has* a waist. But if that bothers you, a touch of putty will fix it. (Examples tacked together wit...
@Grumpy Gnome Kroot guns themselves make for excellet radium weapons. Dark Elf Corsair blades are quite Barsoomian. Partially converted Red Martian for scale (from a Perry Zulu).
@Grumpy Gnome still free to dream 😊 @JTam that was the part I was referring to. @William Redford, my thoughts exactly 😊
@Grumpy Gnome I had no clue about the Fireforge Steppe kit.... so I was making this harder than it needed to be.
Here is a female soldier conversion (fireforge rabble head), some goblins and a bonus Perry light cavalry coversion.
@William Redford Ah, you're a glue the riders on guy. Oh well. Appreciate it anyway.
@JTam Well, My horses have human riders. I could post a pic of the riders and horses next to a goblin... but thats pretty much all I could accomplish.
@William Redford Can you pop a WGA goblin on a WGA horse and tell us if it fits? It keeps coming up and no seems to actually know. It's a mystery wrapped in a conundrum.
I would go with the Fireforge Models.
@Pierre Lerdou-Udoy Danke!
Deathfields “Predator” up in a tree? If so, too much to hope for a version in translucent plastic?
Yeah. There are young ogre boys looking at that picture on a "hot ogre women in the military" website as we speak. :) Yeah. I regret not getting those hafling hussars when they were on Kickst...
Oh snap! I might have found the easy button: Fireforge evidently makes "Steppe Warriors." Definitely need A sprue. "What are you doing Steppe Bro?"
I am putting together a Russian warband for "Silver Bayonet." https://wargamesatlantic.com/community/xenforum/topic/78263/the-silver-bayonet-projects?page=2 I want to put a Kalmyk trooper i...
@William Redford That's a female huh? Well I suppose a female warthog is lovely to the gentleman warthog. Forgot about the Halfling Winged Hussars.... those are/where? awesome.
@JTam Yeah, Westfalia has (had?) those great hafling winged hussars. But I think they are out of print.
@JTam In a way... yes.. But just to point out that picture is a female ogre. And the rumor is that it will be 2 sprues and one sprue is all female bodies... I kind of like the look. I especially li...
@William Redford I had forgotten about Westfalia. But I actually picked up a couple of their minis about two years back from I believe Bad Squiddo. Will look great in a sl...
Mantic has a first look at their new Ogres. Not feeling it. He kind of resembles an angry vegetable of some sort. Maybe a turnip.
@Geoff Maybury That is some beautiful stuff.
"Rebellion" is great campaign book. Outstanding history, analysis, information on formations and uniforms, etc. Really well done.
Gendarmes may be the best answer. Saw this awesome conversion online:
@Vitor Soares I feel like this part of the sneak peak is a.... part of the part over her head.... I hope the Spanish kit has flexibility like the British Riflemen kit... ...
@Mark Dewis I am interested in the Boxers. But I am guessing my next box will be Ooh Rah followed by Ogres. But Now I want the new Mantic Ogres too...
Ah. That's probably what was meant. But I have my doubts on the racial angle. Russians have always considered Belarussians and Ukrainians to be "Little Russians." Now that i...
That last one looks scifi to me based more on the wristband than anything else but hey why not do stuff that goes across genres where possible.
@William Redford I've racked up: Halflings, Lizardmen, Cannon Fodder 1 &2, Boxers and Bulldogs so far, plus the Eisenkern Panzerjaeger girls.
@Alessio De Carolis they're meant to be general purpose vacc suits, such as a crew might wear, so I want to keep them looking unarmoured.
I think all of those clearly show halfling cavalry.
White as in racially, is what he's trying to say I think. Ethnic russians vs the culturally rather different cossacks.
@JTam I agree with you, the image on the right could be a fantasy troll maybe, or a dual purpose kit. The napoleonic one is definitely a Spanish Grenadier, the death fields heavy weapon is pretty c...
Sneak Peak for 16 SEP 22: Perhaps L to R: Deathfields heavy weapon, the top of the power armor/light mech kit, Grenadier (Spanish???), Magic Mike performing on Halloween. The last o...
Honestly, things are changing, but very, very slowly... The Spanish forces of police are now regionally organized and "la Guardia Civil" is very close to our French "Gendarmerie". Soldiers are now...
Thank you very much, I've finally got some painted up and ready to go
Paul Cziganj is right. Making French "gendarmes" is a very good idea. This uniform, with the collar "saxe" or "demi-saxe" is valid from 1916-18 to 1945-48 : first, "bleu horizon", then "bleu de Fr...
@Alessio De Carolis Whites? Not the Reds? The Ukrainians were always "Little Russians" to the Russians, but I'm not aware of any particular ill will towards the Cossacks from the Whit...
@Andreas Mayrhofer As someone who prefers the Prequels to the Originals (let's not talk about the Sequels 😒), I 110% approve of this project. A great idea to use the Eisenkern models as Clone...
Anyone have any experience ordering from Elite Wargames and Models?
Well, the late romans could work well for an Arthurian scenario, either historical and fantasy, and it's possible mix various boxes from the same period, don't forget that, contrary to common belie...
Nice stuff, expecially the last ones, adding shoulders & knees/elbows pads made from GS could add more hard sci-fi feel to these minis
Well, it's a little ironic that Ukrainian (!) cossacks are showed as Russia's patriots, knowing how they were despised by "white" russians (not the RCW political faction), being generally employed ...
the dogs are very useful. First non-undead I ever finished painting. And uhm... I don't remember if the ghost dog or the skeleton rat (from the Kings of War skeleton sprue) was the first overall...
Heh. I like to joke that I'm playing with play-do when I do a greenstuff session. And I'm pretty certain that a significant portion of the buyers for this stuff are adults who actually want to play...
It's the Tiger King! That he may be, but a rakshasa he ain't. Gotta have the hands the wrong way around. At that price range, Dark Sword Armory has a ton of beastfolk adventurers. Otter clerics...
The thing with "monster mounts" like raptors is more that if they are useful as models in their own right, selling boxes of them on their own makes sense. This, plus swapping riders from one mou...
@Paul Cziganj These are my first 3D printed miniatures. I wasn't aware how fragile they were. But forewarned is forearmed. Thank You.
@Miyuso This looks like a great game for an eight year old: https://wargamesatlantic.com/community/xenforum/topic/79816/necromolds-great-intro-miniatures-wargame-for-kids
https://wargamesatlantic.com/community/xenforum/topic/59797/show-us-your-youngsters-painting-projects I think a lot of us would like to get our kids into wargaming. Well I found a great gate...
Ahhh. That takes me back to when the old WGF forums got spammed by porn bots...
