Infamy Infamy well almost Germanic Tribesmen

Germanic Tribesmen 

The latest off the paint desk for the analogue painting challenge are some foundry Germanic tribesmen. I think they are fabulous sculpts with lots of character. I have another thirty odd naked fanatics to complete over the next 3 months.

Marguerite of Anjou

La rose rouge d'Anjou

Marguerite of Anjou, one of the principal figures of the war of the roses. Daughter of Rene of Anjou, (King of Naples). Often named as the spark that started the 30 year War of the Roses.  A 28mm Perry miniature painted for the invasion of England during the War of the Roses to place her son Edward back on the crown . Inspiration for her dress from her portrait in Angers Chateau which we visit regularly.

Cybermen advance

Cybermen 

Another entry for the analogue painting challenge, some Cybermen soft plastic and hard plastic. Very simple paint job’s, painted in gunmetal, then ink wash, then a dry brush of silver.  The smaller hard plastic are superb sculpts the soft plastic represents the mid seventies Cybermen. I have based them on grey to represent the moon.

Touchy business

 

 Touchy business

A figure that I found while cleaning up was a part finished Ordinance technician, he was painted and based but had nothing to disarm so I added a missile head I had in spares and some guidance fins so it looked like a guided 230mm rocket assisted round, then made some green stuff sand bags. Not sure if he will ever be used in a game but you never know. The miniatures is from Wartime miniatures Australian army range.

Joan d’Arc

 Jeanne d’Arc

Next off the desk is a Perry Miniatures Jeanne d’Arc miniature. I really like this miniature but it needed something on the base to help lift it more so I added archer stakes and arrows. The flag is a photocopy of the Perry supplied one, then repainted, not 100% happy with it and I may replace it at some time in the future with my interpretation of it or just purchase a pre made one. Another entry in the analogue painting challenge.

Star Wars Revell Republic Gunshiip

 Republic Gunship

Another entry for the analogue painting challenge was a 1/172 Republic Gunship. A very quick and easy kit to assemble, airbrush, then assemble, panel lined then highlighted with brush with weathering of different colored panels. I went with a black and white theme. The body is about the size of a matchbox car with the wings sitting outside that. Really happy with the build and it wall join my growing completed Star Wars kits. Again Revell why the weird scale….
