Tarascans finished!

Here are the hero and command bases:













The King figure with the green stuff modifications:





Last up on this project are some baggage carriers I intend to use as victory tokens and a few straw huts for camps. Then onto something else.

And general update and pictures here:

Really nice and colourful. A era that your making more and more appealing

Ah go on, you know you want to! 

They're really nice figures. I was just painting some of the last ones I my queue tonight. Normally after painting a lot of an army or two in quick succession I'm more than ready for something else, but I'll be a little sad to leave them and I'm sure some more will come into the queue in the future. It's fun to be able to go a bit mad with colours.

Those are all really nice Matthew .

Painted up a bunch of these guys then realised I didn't have enough bases for them:



I'm using them as victory tokens to represent captives. I'd previously based some of them on 15mm rounds but I've no more of those.

I can either get more bases, rebase the ten or so I've done already on bases I have, or do these in twos and threes on bigger bases for a mix of different points.

Also got some time off work coming up tomorrow afternoon and Monday. I've a plan to get these Meosoamericans onto the table for a game on Monday but what to do with tomorrow afternoon. Paint something or play another test game of Twilight...

Decisions decisions.

Looking good, Matthew !

Great idea

I've been working on a few fantasy figures as "palette cleansers" after getting four armies finished up recently.

One of the fantastic samurai ape figures:


This cheeky chappie likes to blow his horn at all hours of the day or night:


A big axe solves many problems:


A light in the dark, experiments in OSL:


I've also posted a few battle reports recently (including a new Aztec and Tarascan one today) and taken some full army pics of the Aztec and Tarascan forces that have been posted elsewhere too.

Enjoy!

This month's update:

https://mmcvhistoryhome.wordpress.com/2021/02/28/progress-update-february-2021/

Hectic month, but was nice to have some painting as a distraction. Most of my focus was on my entries for the competition. Was fun to challenge myself and paint a few things that had been lingering in my pile for a bit. Painted my first ever tank. Couple of ECW units that have reinspired my interest in the era (and convinced me to take on the rebasing of them to smaller single bases in future). And some other fun odds and ends. I definitely need to get a better camera before the next competition mind you! Current phone just isn't up to it.

Pendraken ordered much much sooner than expected, well done Leon and team! Exciting times ahead as it includes some expansions to an existing project plus the seeds of 2 new projects. 

Few other packages expected just from other hobby companies with other bits and bobs.

All coming together nicely.
