10 of the figures were already painted a long time ago, but added another 10, and also Perry metal sashimono - along with Perry decals from the Kato Kiyomasa set.
Since Old Glory cavalry normally comes in sets of 10 figures, based a couple for each unit on singles to have an even frontage when in two ranks.
Paired a figure each from the older completed ones with the newer ones to make them blend in better. Some of the older figures had a stronger (dirtier) Minwax stain.
The Samurai army is pretty much ready for invading Korea. Plan to take a "family portrait" of all the units next.
Very nice!
ReplyDeleteI recently discovered your blog through your older Trojan war posts. I'm just getting into that Period and found the collection very inspiring! Did you ever get to trying out your Achilles Rampant rules? That style of game is definitely our happy place also. cheers!
Thanks for your visit and kind words, Paul. As for the Trojan War game, I just did a solo play test, and it worked well. Some of my buddies played a similar version called Chariots Rampant. They liked it. If I ever play it again, I plan to incorporate some of the rules from Tne Men Who Would Be Kings. Specifically, the 1D6 per figure for shooting and HTB. Kindest regards, Dean
DeleteFantastic Samurai Dean! Look forward to the pictures of the whole army.
