Title: Tlaxcalans - commission for a friend
Post by: Duke Speedy of Leighton on 21 February 2016, 08:49:22 AM
What ho!
Couple of quick snaps, 51 15mm Tlaxcalan archers, based for FOGR. Many more troops to come.

Not a good shot, but gives you an impression of the scale!

Love the Montezuma figure, particularly what you have done with his headdress. The figure pose strikes me as odd - like a doorman at a Los Vegas casino or a welcome sign at Cancun airport. Given what little I know about him, maybe this is the correct pose after all. Always enjoy seeing your painting Mr. Lemmy.

Its part of a two part set by Wargames Illustrated, the other half is Cortes, so they are face to face in conversation I guess...

Well that explains the pose - I image the conversation is like what one would have with a used car saleman (Cortez)  :)

They are 15s, no idea who made them (I was given a toolbox full of lead), the big man is 28mm because it's a fun way of showing a 'Great Commander' or Big Boss in FogR! ;)

First off, that is some bloomin' impressive work.   =D> =D> =D> =D> =D>

I was completely and utterly behind you all the way ... until the baggage. I know this is a hobby horse that I have ridden to the dust, but I have to ask about the Darkseid* face behind them.  

Is it expected that the baggage is a largely static unit? It's not expected to move and can therefore be left in situ throughout a game? If so I can view the Zordon**/baggage combo as terrain and get on with my day. If not, is the logic that the baggage tote the Face of Boe*** with them, or does it follow them Pacman**** like across the table?

I am, of course, just hugely jealous of your skills. Also curious to see what's behind Lady Cassandra*****.


* DC Comics super baddie - Google it!  >:(
** From the Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers. (I refuse to recognise any of the sequels. They were a mockery of the original concept.) He's a big floaty head thing that lures teenagers into a secluded fortress and then dresses them in skin tight clothes and gets them to stand in splayed-legged, exaggerated positions. What's wrong with that?  
***Dr Who character. Just a face.  In a jar of vinegar. A big face. Really big. No ... there's no logic to it.
****I'm not explaining that one
***** Another Dr Who character that was just a face in a jar. I don't know why. Maybe the writer had a fetish or something.Zoe Wannamaker did the voice and eventually she dried up and sort of popped. Lady Cassandra that is. Not Zoe Wannamaker.
