Naval Museum, Varna, Bulgaria. Ordnance Cat:

@Mark Dewis the wargames factory numidians were a great set. The bodies were generic enough to be useful in a ton of things. If Wargames Atlantic made a generic body sprue like that, I would b...

I agree with the consesus that the WGF samurai are fiddly, but there are useful bits. Definitely keeping an eye on Fireforge, though. My best efforts with WGF Japanese were heavily converted warri...

@PEter GIlham I would prefer 6 or 8 limbs too. 

Made a captain for my female pikemen. This is a WA conquistador legs, a Cannon fodder 2 torso. and head.... the plan will be to paint the torso like a leather jacket and the zipper as chain mail be...

I seem to be the only one complaining that the prototype bugs have only got four limbs . It just doesn't look right . Apart from the fact it prevents them from using weapons,bugs are not bipeds,all...

@Brian Van De Walker Well, they definitely advertise them as 28mm. They have 2 official sizes, 28mm and 54mm. Now they also call their Anno Domini 28mm. And said during the KS that the pistol chick...

@William Redford Been thinking about the sprue thing, what about buying as a upgrade box. I know I have bought "box kits" that where just upgrade sprues for another set (and I am talking minis here...

@William Redford Actually, I think Hot and Dangerous may sell sculpts in both 28mm and 32mm versions for subjects, though this is based purely on ebay box pics.

@Steffen Seitter  I will give you that is the consesense because of Wikipedia agreeing on that and it not being worth fighting over. However your personal argument is not convincing for the f...

@Grumpy Gnome Yeah, I dont think I will bother with the WF Samurai anymore. Though some of their head options (the helmet crests) may be of use with the Fireforge Samurai. So I wont toss them yet. ...

I had some of the WGA Samurai... I also found them fiddly and often a bit stiff looking, like mannequins. So they went back onto eBay. Hence why I am curious to see how the Fireforge KS does. But I...

Those look great. I am not sure which is my favorite, The leader, the heavy weapon guy, or the binocular guy or the sniper. If I had to choose, I would probably say the squad leader. 

So... :) I had some time before work this morning so put together 2 quick and dirty...  I had forgottent how much I hate the Wargames Factory Samurai. They are fiddly and the poses arent grea...

I would just love to see what comes out of these efforts!

Many Happy Returns for yesterday!

Took me a while, but I finally have a tabletop-legal kill team complete:

Happy Birthday! Hope it's been a good one for you! You take care of yourself too! 😄

@Mark Dewis Hmmm. I have 3 sprues of the old wargames factory samurai, and 4 sprues of the Fireforge mongols... as well as some wa goblin heads and some GW hobgrotz heads. If I get a chance af...

Next you'll need the most important unit in a Halfling force - the Catering Corps!

Happy birthday!

@William Redford no, never saw that. I'm not a horror fan as a rule, though I do like Jamie-Lee. I'll see if I can get some pictures of my old Mordheim Ghost Pirates. Largely unpainted; mostly a m...

Nice idea. I have a pile of the old WGF Samurai kits. Those would likely suit this concept as well. For that matter, Japanese armour with a monster head is your basic Oni.

Beats me. Vulture men of Lemuria? 

Is anyone backing Fireforges Samurai? kickstarter? The Hobgoblin thread has me thinking about trying some Goblin (hobgoblin?) samurai conversions. I photo shopped some WA goblin heads on the Ashiga...

So, how was the Chinese? Any special birthday traditions?

Happy birthday, hope you had a great day.

Out of Production GW?

This guy? No idea. But maybe someone can help.   

There's a weird bird guy in the product photos for the goblins. I need to know where that's from!

This weekend I finished building the third and last group of command and heavy weapon teams from the grognards box. The end result is similar to the other two batches, but with different weapons, p...

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday! 🎂

@Caratacus Oh! and as for what game, presently a buddy and I are ceveloping some RPG-lite/ co-op game rules using a D10 system, so these are mostly intended as baddies for that as we gear up for a ...

Happy Birthday Brother!  All The Best.  

@Jay H. Ugh. T o each thier own, and I'm glad you enjoy the style - but I live in Taiwan and am rather saturated with it, and rather like the more realistic proportions of WGA and some of the other...

@Caratacus Well, to be fair I like the thought of using the spears that come with the kit as harpoons/javlins. (I say harpoon as it looks to me like there is some kind of rope wrapped around them.)...

Happy birthday! :)

Happy birthday mate! Have a great day!

Hi all taking a couple of days off, its my 68th today, so I`m chilling out with Eileen and the girls, Tia, Narla and Dinky. Don`t feel any different, no wiser, no older, just the same nutty me. I`v...

Nice looking Lizardmen you have there, good use of Kairic Acolyte shields to create something different. What game do you plan to use them in? I particularly like the spears you have chosen for th...

Late to comment, but nice to see the old WGF Numidians getting some love. Very handy torsos those. Never much liked the Amazons, though. I've struggled to find much use at all for that box.

@Forrest Wentworth there is a bump that protrudes from the the back of the hip of one the armored goblins in one piece. The shield goes there, hanging form the hip.

@Blutze I have! But honestly my little project is something of a conscious effort to get away from GW Meso-American influences. It's the biggest reason I took the shields from the Kairic Acolyte ki...

I agree, it is a great ideia to get more opponents for my Portuguese.

@JTam posted a series on Magellan in the Conquistador inspiration thread. How about some other adversaries that could verse the Conquistadors. Indonesia is made up of many different tribes with ma...

and so for ranged support harpoons are the only answer Have you heard of our lord and savior P'toohee? I got 60-odd of the 5th edition archers for 20€ and a ~1000pt army of 6th/7th edition ...

@Mark Dewis did you ever see the original "the Fog" with Jamie Lee Curtis?   they had a zombie/ghost pirate crew.  https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nOZwnivtLbc  it was mentione...

And yes, I know there are plenty of touch-ups to do. It's just it had been so long since i had last said anything about them (because they have been in various stages of unfinished for the longest ...

@JTam yeah was definitely referring to Magellan. The battle didn't really convey the natives numbering in the 1000's. I went back and rewatched it and while they did outnumber the crew, it did...
