Yes still on Burpa cavalry, and here are 3 more! I know and yet more to come. 5 more started and one shall be finished by the time you read this. I don't usually paint white (Greys) horses, mostly sticking to various brown so this was a nice change for me. However I do not think I will paint any more for at least 3 months!
For the troops I have tried to stick to realistic colours for the clothing, mostly creams and beige. But with brighter turbans and waist sashes. This gives them more interest and to be honest stops me getting bored! Likewise with the shields. I did have problems with gold Acrylic paint, I always seem to. Therefore on these three figures there is a lack of Gold But I shall try to make it up on the next few, although now I have said that I regret saying it!
PBB update
I now have the 4 players I wanted all signed up. I did invite 5 as a maximum but 1 declined as the game did not appeal to them. For those 4 I INTEND to send out the rules on Sunday. What is more I do intend to run it one blog post at a time. Which will mean that the game shall be slow but I will only be dealing with one person each post! This should mean much less work and hassle for me! (Fingers crossed!)Football update:
We still Believe!
Faith has returned at least for now!
Until next time (Sunday I hope) take care have fun and dream big after all it does not cost you any more!
Love the white horse Clint, it adds that little brightness to the Burpas! And yes Faith has returned!
ReplyDeleteThank you Ray. White horses should be rare so no more for now. Maybe another much later! Don't want to over do it after all!
DeleteBeautiful colour schemes. Clint. You really do paint these minis so very well. Always a pleasure to see.
ReplyDeleteThank you Blax. Struggling to get any painting done before 8am. But I should finish 1 or maybe 2 before tomorrow.
DeleteBeautiful figures and presentation...and it was a great team!
ReplyDeleteThank you Phil. Always more to come, both in the Football and the painting!
DeleteMore great looking Burpas Clint, the variations in colour add to the appeal, with the grey making it even more unique.
ReplyDeleteLook forward to reading the rules on Monday, when I get back from the show
Thank you Dave. Firstly have a great show> Secondly I hope to send the rules out on Sunday an so start thinking bout what would make a good expedition. Finally got around to painting and am trying a Palomino this time! It may not work but at least it is a try!
DeleteNice models. Judging from the slight variation in size would I be right in saying these are a mix of manufacturers? They still go well together, but just wondering.
ReplyDeleteThank you lee. As far as I am aware they are all foundry. They may appear different manufacturers due to the poses of the figures and some are on slightly rearing horses.
DeleteVery nice indeed Clint and a good looking unit altogether.
ReplyDeleteThank you Michael. I promise I shall do a group shot when they are all finished. For now though 2 extras will be finished by tomorrow morning!
DeleteQuite a dynamic bunch and the odd splash of colour here and there gives a nice break from an otherwise monotomous force.
ReplyDeletePlease remmebr your camera if you have another game, I'd love to see all the figures you've done in action.
Thank you Joe. It was a shame I forgot the camera that time. The game did look good and I would have liked to show it. Still I am sure there will be another chance sooner or later!
DeleteVery nice work on the Cavalry.
ReplyDeleteThank you Simon. I should put a few more on today... Sunday)
