Diving into 10mm head first: project log

[BeardedHammer]

Late medieval. I rather like the armored look.

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Like it.

And well done for avoiding the dreaded fish jokes

[toxicpixie]

I used a mix of landsknectes and armoured/unarmoured late medieval pike for mine - you can mix them up lovely and end up with really unique units. With a bit more thought I could also have used some of the Elizabethan and slightly later figures too...

[BeardedHammer]

Here is the First Line Section consisting of 3 units of pikemen and the command unit to the rear





I probably won't have time to make them pretty until late next week as I have a pretty busy work schedule until then, but I will post any progress that I manage to get in

Just love massed ranks of infantry.

Can't wait to see these finished BH

[BeardedHammer]

Me either  I'm thinking about doing bronze colored armor, if so what color should I use for the cloth?

[getagrip]

Are these historical or fantasy?

[BeardedHammer]

Fantasy, but I have no idea on the actual background yet

[getagrip]

Ah, well in which case, blue works brilliantly with bronze.

[toxicpixie]

They're looking well set up fellows! Bronze and blue should look cracking... Red accents or maybe yellow?

[fsn]

Taupe, I think, definitely taupe.

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Blue and yellow are opposite sides of a colour wheel and clash.

Blue and white or blue and red?

[getagrip]

Google blue and bronze images; you'll find some beautiful things 

[Techno]

Bronze and blue sound good to me.....Though a blue 'shifting' towards turquoise would be my favourite.

Blue and white or blue and red?

Maybe I've come over all Landsknecte, I think blue, yellow, pink, taupe, magenta, orange with a splash of black. For the second figure, try...

Blue and white or blue and red?

Blu and orange are opposite, or yellow and viola.

[fsn]

Viola? Isn't that the opposite of trombone?

[barbarian]

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

I sit corrected, thank you.

[fsn]

Pssst! Psssst!  Where the taupe?
