Just had a look and they are very nice. Nice basing mix of materials and colours on the Ottomans (Ottomens?).
Particularly versatile are the WWII 6mm on a Martian coloured playing surface.
All good stuff and nice looking chaps to boot.

Look damn fine to me, TP !
Cheers - Phil.

Please do, the more the merrier! It's basically a collection of photos somewhere accessible rather than a living community like the forum

Ho-kay, a shot of the Zouves I finished up in the week -



These are basically odds & sods I picked up after enjoying getting some left overs done a month or two back. It's a quick paint, undercoat I. Base uniform ish then pick out detail and wash for shading. Minimum time for acceptable reward! I'm towards another unit or two of foot & a couple of guns for a Fire & Fury "pick up game" Division. Unless I sell them first, anyway!

Paint scheme is based on some "sensible" interpretations of Confederate Zouves, and at F&F level the eight bases represent about a third of *all* the Zouves the Rebs actually raised But they looked too nice to pass up a bag

Couple more piccies on the link on my sig.

You could probably use those as Balkan auxiliaries for the Turks too.

Dang, didn't even think about that! I guess they could... I've some Tufecki muskets to do to back up the Janissaries though so they might be a bit redundant. Especially as I don't think Fire & Fury bases are very compatible with my Pike & Shotte unit bases

That is seriously nice painting. Thank you for sharing.

Pleasure - the new ACW are seriously nice sculpts!

Missed that on the way past! Is that the Chasseurs d'Afrique? I was actually rather proud of them there bases! There's tufts of sere static grass, a mix of coarse Lidl modelling paste & micro cork rocks and my usual sand. Nothing out of this world Although as with all the French early war tanks there's something a bit steam-punk/Jules Verne about them...

I wanted to break up the basing on the Ottomans a little, hence the tiny stones - railway ballast. Gives a nice break from sand-grass-sand

Ta!

You should be proud of that basing, definitely looks the part

I think Subedai missed a couple of vital clues in the comments on those 6mm images, 1er Regiment Chasseurs d'Afrique
Technically a cavalry formation they were stationed in the Casablanca ...fought their way across North Africa to Tunis

So they are actually based for Tatoonie in a Galaxy far far away or more likely Tataouine in Tunisia, that the planet was named after 

It's surprising how much alien planets look like of bits of earth

Anyway, especially for FierceKitty and his desire for Ottomans, a couple of WIPS of the arty I'm working on.

2nd piccy is of when they invaded Australia then?

They were in sore need of a Four x! Posted from the phone it flipped it but if you click to enbiggen it filps the right way :£

I don't desire Ottomans. We're just good friends.
