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
I'll post up the
Wilderness war incoming
