28mm Woodland Indians - something to paint

Since I finished painting my Roman Legion I have been mulling over my next project but whilst I am deciding what this might be I needed to satisfy my painting craving. Its been almost two months since I lifted a paint brush.

With Muskets & Tomahawks second edition just round the corner I thought it would be useful to add to my French Indian War collection, and why not add to my 80 plus Indians already painted.

With cost in mind I decided to buy into Warlord Games Plastic Woodland Indians - not just one box but three boxes.


These were sourced from Ebay at a relatively good price of about £16 per box.

The intention is to paint them all in one go and then sell around half to cover the original outlay. Hopefully;-)

As figures go they are nothing special - but they are quite fiddly to put together.

So on Saturday afternoon I assembled the full 72 figures in one massive session. I used 25mm round bases rather than the squares bases they came with.

Once the figures were dry I spent an hour dabbing on the flesh colour.

The bases have been treated with sand and grit. On top has been given an emulsion brown paint job



With a bit of luck these will all be finished later in the week at which point in time I'll post up the ebay link

cheers
