First Painting of the Year
/Not the start of a new project (they are still in their box!) but a few bits and pieces for existing armies.
First up we have some organ guns for my Burgundian Ordnance army. I had some rockets already, but organ guns are more correct and having the actual models will hopefully remind me that there are special rules that apply to this type of artillery in To The Strongest. I’ve also painted up a couple of pavilions to add a bit of flavour to the Burgundians’ camp bases.
These are from Alternative Armies: very nice sculpts and they arrived very quickly as well.
Next up are a few command figures for my British army for the Crimean War (1854-6). I don’t actually need command figures for the rules I’m playing at the moment (Neil Thomas’ Rules for 19th Century Wargaming) but I find the army looks a bit odd without them. It also helps remind me of which units are in which division.
These are Rank & File figures from Timecast: very nice figures that my somewhat messy painting doesn’t really do justice to.
My next painting will be the start of the first big project for 2023: a 15mm Norman army using the excellent Museum Miniatures CAD range. Can’t wait to get started on them!
