A week ago today and I showed the mounted version of these troops. So it is only fair that I show the dismounted versions. Following comments last week I have painted one figure with a pink sombrero to represent Don Raymondo Rousell. Ok it may not be him when it comes to the battle but at least it should put a smile on certain faces and as such is a worthwhile endeavour. I have yet to re-paint one of the mounted figures in a pink sombrero but that is but a few moments work and will be quite enjoyable.
These are again Pendraken miniatures in the same 10mm scale. A scale I have come to relish so much that I am contemplating starting all future armies in the same scale for big battle games. But we both know I will get side-tracked long before I do that.
I was going to paint some 28mm German WW1 figures this afternoon, alas I have run out of superglue so may not attaché them to bases for handling and painting. Darn. So until Monday I am at a loss as to what to paint.
So on that note I shall leave it to Monday for my next post. Take care until then and get some painting done if you can.
All the best Clint
Yet again more great 10mm figures and very nice paintwork mate.
ReplyDeleteThank you Carl. More to come as well. Already sent in a pre-order to Pendraken to pick up at Salute..... and expecting to get a few more.(erhm well slightly more than a few.)
DeleteLovely work but a better warning in future!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I'll use that picture again. Thank you Fran.
DeleteNice work again with these 10mm guys. Looking forward to the pink sombrero.
ReplyDeleteWell one of the foot guys has them. Just got to do one on a mounted one. (Will do that tonight) Thank you Dean.
DeleteThat pink sombrero is the Wild West equivalent to a huge neon sign saying, "Shoot me!" Excellent paint-jobs, Clint.
ReplyDeleteOh Bryan I think you are correct. we shall have to see if it is the same for SCW. Thanks Mate.
DeleteThey look great Clint nice job.
ReplyDeleteThank you Simon. It all adds a little character to the game.
DeleteGreat work as usual!
ReplyDeleteAnd I agree, all I can see is that big, bright sombrero :D
Thank you Mathyoo. Don't worry until The next paintinf challenge OR I start painting Mexican Bandits I will not show that Photograph again. (well I might)
DeleteReal men wear Pink.....or so it says in the adverts just before The Walking Dead!
ReplyDeleteBe flattered, there is now a model of both you and Postie in my Spanish Civil war game..... Not sure what I can use for Fran (No not a donkey) or Big Lee!
DeleteDid they have oxen in the Spanish Civil war? That would suit Fran.
DeleteOf course they had all the farm animals that we have today, and yes I have found a company thank makes then, alas they will not be at Salute. I want to make it CLEAR this is not what I think of for Fran.
DeleteIts a donkey for Fran I'm afraid or a bush!
DeleteCabra no Burro!
DeleteEasing us all in gently with the dismounts and a pink sombrero, I'll be keeping a copy of the photograph for scaring children.
ReplyDeleteThese 10mms do look good Clint, very effective.
There was a warning so I do feel vindicated. Thank you Joe.
DeleteOne of the things I like about your blog is that you do a variety of things. Different periods, different scales. Nice job on these today Clint.
ReplyDeleteI remember that pic of Ray from Frans blog. It took two expensive weeks of therapy before I could sleep with the lights off after that. It's back to the couch for me!
Thank you Anne. No need for therapy welcome to the bright side. You just need to get a higher dosage of happy pills.
DeleteNow these are rather splendid Ian, but my word the colour in that last photograph scorched my retinas!
ReplyDeleteI actually took the Photo from your blog. So you only have yourself to blame. Thank you Michael
DeleteTop work in the little men Clint they are rather nice, but that last picture is so hideous and gross I now need therapy, mind you I am not totally sure is that because of the colour or the comfortable look Ray has in it.
ReplyDeleteOk Pete Hope to see you at Salute. I am no longer a mental health specialist, but I can recommend a few if you need them.
