Warlord Games Pike & Shotte Marksman and Artillery Officers

Mounted the Marksman on a Litko 25mm x 50mm oval cavalry base. The officers will join some Perry cannon later. 

The officer with the spyglass came with the mortar set, and the other one with the marksman set.

Very nicely sculpted and detailed figures again from Warlord's Pike & Shotte range.
The officer in blue is supposed to be leaning on the cannon.
I was going to start on the Rupert figures, but a Warlord Games order of Scots Covenanters and another Infantry Regiment arrived today. Plan to start on those next. Until next time, best wishes to you all!

    1. Thanks, Steve. Actually just regular Vallejo paints - the flesh areas were given a wash of Vallejo ink/stain though. I add whites or yellow to the basic colors for highlighting - using a fairly think tipped brush. Warm regards, Dean

    1. Thanks, Neil. I regret not picking up another one when it was on sale - at the time I wondered, "How can I use this guy?" I now know that Pike & Shotte has rules for him. Wish I got one for opposing sides. Best regards, Dean

  15. Fine work Dean! That chap in blue looks like he urgently needs o vanish behind a tree. With his left foot in the air he looks like my little brother when he needed to pee but didn’t want to go 😂

    1. Thanks, Nick! Yes, he's certainly in a unique pose - didn't even know he came in the marksman pack. I had to look up images on he Warlord Games site to see what he was supposed to be. Warm regards, Dean
