Imjin War Revisit Update

Completed basing the figures. Need to add sashimono to a couple of Ashigaru units once some decals from Perry arrive - also another pack of Korean bowmen. Still have some Perry foot Samurai to work on too.

Korean royal guardsmen and regular government bowmen. The guardsmen based on 20mm fender washers, and the regular bowmen based 3 figs per 40mm squared - same as the ones already in the collection.
Three of the Ashigaru spear units with sashimono painted with generic patterns - not based on any particular clan or unit.
Sashimono painted prior to attaching to the figures. One of my local gaming buddies gave me a bunch of these Warlord Games/Wargames Factory sashimono. The decals coming from Perry are for the Kiyomasa clan - hopefully they'll fit onto the plastic sashimono which are smaller than the Perry metal ones.
Thanks for stopping by and checking out the blog again. Best wishes to you all.

  2. Amazing, you’ve crushed out another project! My Hope is that Tomahawk Studios finally puts out an official Age of for this period. Age of Chivalry will be released this Fall it looks like.

    1. Thank you very much, Kevin. Interesting you mention Saga, as I based the armored Koreans party for those rules in case a future supplement covers the period. Kindest regards, Dean

  4. The figures certainly are impressive and the shields are first rate. Fender washers, you made me smile. I still remember buying 1000 at the local Ace store...30 years ago. Need more now,
