@Berggeit looks cool! But I must ask, do you hand paint primer on or how do you prime over your grass tufts?

Here it is. My last post for this forum thread. Here is my complete WWI French army. Thanks Wargames Atlantic for these great models. I look forward to coming back to this project when those...
Next lot of Irish done The flesh was done with either kislev or cadian flesh tone followed by guilliman flesh contrast. I also tried to free hand a hawk on a guy like from Cobra Kai, safe to sa...
@Yronimos Whateley back when i was in the 9th/10th grade when I played Warhammer, Empire was my favorite army. I would buy as i could and would get stuff as gifts and what not. The thing i had the ...
Here is the profile from the 4th edition Empire army book.
Back in 4th Edition Warhammer, Empire armies could have ogres, not sure if they could have them before that, I dont think they could after... Back when Halflings and giants were part of the army li...
Looking forward to your project updates. Try not to wear a hole in your CD of "Fortunate Son" while painting.
@Yronimos Whateley I think people have always wanted Landsknecht Ogres to fit in with their Empire armies. Additionally, GW is resurrecting the Old World/Warhammer Fantasy Battles in the ne...
@Simon Boulton definitely that's what I plan to do: Roman auxiliaries
My first kitbash was Grognards with Tau parts, for some Gue'vesa aka human helpers. Then I've lost interest in 40k, but with WGA sets still feeding my imagination, here I am, kitbashing troops for ...
Hi all just to say I may be off Forum, for a short time, my "Nam" arrived friday and now I must cack down and get to work. Sadly the real world pushes in to my time so much that it becomes model or...
Make that an army of goblins trolling everyone by pretending to be Persian ladies, and you've got a normal day on the internet.... Looks like an ogre to me, too - I'd expect WA's Landsnecht Ogre p...
@Brian Van De Walker "...a sprue of them just standing, maybe a mix of the bare and furnished, or a mix furnished for the main eras/armies WA is planning on doing... instead of doing one era, do a ...
Here it is, my final five French soldiers! I feel great completing about 80ish soldiers. The sculptor, Thieu Duong, really did a fantastic job on this set. The models took washes really well whi...
@William Redford ROFL
@Benjamin Hayward I would. Like JTam said, the statuesque heads are great and i have bought a ton. And there have been at least 2 recent succesful kickstarters for head stls (which doesnt help me s...
@JTam i dont normally like historical armies but i am contemplating the goblin, troll persian lady army as well...
@Aureus Mandate As you said it COULD cover 1943 on up Soviet Infantry. The result would be suboptimal though. It wouldn't look terrible, but the devil is in the details. Th...
@William Redford Convenient, I've always wanted to do an Army of trolls, goblins, and Persian ladies.
Well, I didn't mean to de-rail this thread. 😆 Would you buy head (and maybe arms, weapons, and gear) option sprues?
From Jeremy on the article announcing the pole, "Horses like this in bareback are fairly easy to find at this scale. My suggestion is the ideal setup would be bareback horses with the option to ad...
@Steffen Seitter 20th century would be pushing it, but I think a set like this could comfortably cover the time line from 1891-1922. Any earlier than that, and the Mosin rifle they're defini...
I would be more interested in Ogres... But since Wargames Atlantic is making Ogre Landsknecht i dont really need them... but at the same time they could add diversity to the group as a whole. Lokks...
If anyone ever watches this, who is your favorite character? Mine is the long suffering servant / ex-Soldier. I didn't count them, but I strongly suspect he quietly stacked more French bodies tha...
Interesting. Looks like an ogre to me. Even has the gut plate (tm).
Editing the title here as this has been relaunched. This was originally in the Rennaisance section as they have landsknecht-ish ogres... A dedicated thread was put in the off topic section ...
A head sprue with heads in M38 Panamka hats would be neat. Combine with M38 tunic bodies for adventures in the Stans or Operation Contenance - the joint English/Russian invasion of Iran in 1941....
Russian or not, the torsos seem perfect for Jedi or similar sci-fi characters.
I'm hoping to get into some fantasy wargames soon so I'd appreciate a decent horse kit that isn't closely tied to a particular era or theme. My first thought is that bare horses with optional saddl...
Some standing horses would be nice, but make them bare and do some seperate sadles and blankets and packs, even if they come in two parts for each one in order to get a decent fit onto the horse wo...
@Axel Schudak Thank You. Interesting.
Those bodies are surely "20th Century" russians. The "gymnastyorka" was the common smock of the imperial russian Army and uniforms and equipment of the common soldier didn't change much between 18...
@JTam >What would those look like? What differentiates them? Headgear and beards. French, especially Gascons, are reported with long hair and beards. Italians more clean sha...
@Hudson Adams I certainly need many of these to field units lingering around on a battlefield, and not all of them in full charge regardless of where they are. A look at the otherwise splend...
They would be useful - i have a large number made years ago (so more like ponies nowadays!) for some mongols, some with heads turning and other relaxed poses, brilliant - can dig them out and send ...
@Yronimos Whateley Kind of have to agree, in fact when I read and foolishly voted "with furniture" I was assuming (very incorrectly😆) that they would come with scenery bits like chairs, shelves, e...
Currently working on Wild West stuff and these would fit right in. Not sure how much of a market there is for period specific gear but bare horses would go well with most periods and locations
@Hudson Adams Lots of bayoneted rifles, swords, a pistol, looking great so far, I don’t really know what’s up with the bedrolls but they seem to be a touch unpopular in comments and fr...
I would like to see them made with bridles potentially already on but leave saddles, armour and tack on a separate sprue. As mentioned, it would meanyoy have a generic horse with the fiddly bits of...
Yeah, I am familiar with that comparison. However, it is one thing to see photos/videos.... it is quite another to see things in person. I will feel better when I have some WGA Italians to personal...
With furniture please! While blankets are easy to sculpt, bridles and reins are not! And they are time consuming and fiddly.
Vikings are toast with that armored car in the mix! Seriously though, great job.
I voted for bare! I would love them for a wild west stable. Also bare can be a horse from any era, ancient to WW2 and everything inbetween.
@Cole Lassell To be honest, I would say it is a general fiction trope based somewhat on history and myth, I know the US also had some girls crossdressing to fight during the revolution, and I beli...
Elaborated on the WW1/WW2 Cossack kit idea here: https://wargamesatlantic.com/community/xenforum/topic/49886/suggestions-for-new-soviet-kits (Entry 10 at the bottom)
@Don Williams I believe one kit could cover WW1and WW2 Cossacks. Maybe it could even cover the Russo-Japanese War? Need to research that. Check out the comparisons and thoughts ...
