Afghan/Pashtun

[Ace of Spades]

Right then, finally got some more figures done!
After reading some books on the 19th century  Afghan campaigns I thought it would be a good idea to ge my Pashtun tribesmen done....
Wonderful figures with such beautiful detail; really a joy to paint!



Taking pictures with a phone does not really bring out the detail but it will have to do for now...

Cheers,
Rob

The stones really give the bases a certain plus. Really nice looking chaps.

[Ace of Spades]

I have to be honest about the bases; the rulebook 'Battles for Empire' suggested it would be nice to put some specific scenery on your bases:
'In contrast, Pathan and Boer rifle units should be based to illustrate their use of cover and the terrain over which they preferred to fight. The addition of rocks and other natural debris behind which the figures are crouching wil add much to the look and flavour of the game.'
I think they nailed it!

Cheers,
Rob
