1/8 Samurai WIP & Dragon Rampant

Put together the main parts of the resin samurai figure. Since I didn't have Green Stuff  handy I used some Milliput to fill in the spaces where the arms and legs came together. I also noticed that parts of the figure had areas either missing from the casting, or broken off. These were mainly parts of the armor lacing and an area on the shin guards.

Although I was able to use Milliput, Green Stuff would've been a lot better and easier to use. Milliput, as those who've used it would know, doesn't adhere as well as Green Stuff, nor is it as easy to form into shapes. Milliput is better as filler which can later be sanded down.

Anyway, the money I saved not buying more Green Stuff was used to pick up a copy of Dragon Rampant from the local gaming store. Haven't read through it yet, but see that I should be able to use some of the Warhammer Fantasy Battles Empire figures.

As with Lion Rampant, the book is filled with nice illustrations - quite a bargain for the modest price.

Between working on the samurai figure, I'll be putting together a Dragon Rampant Warband - that's what the basic force is called, versus Retinue as used in Lion Rampant.
