Its Bonus round time again. Curt seems to bamboozle me each year with his choices for
bonus rounds and this year, its no different.
I always try and use figures I've already got or I can use in any of the periods
I already own. Luckily I already had these figures in my unpainted pile.
The figures are from Redoubt Miniatures Scout pack, with 1 addition, the chap with the white face.
Obviously as they're a Scout pack the fine fellows would have been sent out to recon
the area or track their enemy, but they can also be used as normal warriors.
I really like the Redoubt Indians, they're so full of character and life.
I tried out the Army Painter Strong Tone on these, its a bloody godsend!
I shall be using this a lot more often from now on.
30 points for the figures plus an extra 5 for the luvvly shading plus the Bonus round bonus of 50 points makes a grand total of 575 (Editor: WTF?).
Well done Ray! It is a bonus when we can get something we already want to do into one of these bonus rounds, eh?
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely, very handy indeed.
DeleteIt wouldn't be a theme round without you being bamboozled, Ray. :) Great work on these lovely castings.
ReplyDeleteOnly a WTF eh Curt? I expected more abuse than that.
ReplyDeleteNice work old boy but 575 points you cheating git!
DeleteAnd it wasn't like you were even trying to be subtle. If you had added just a few points it would have got me going, but over 500? You careless grifter, Rousell. ;)
DeleteNice miniatures and really nice work on the skin tones. Smooth. Cheers
ReplyDeleteCheers Brendon!
DeleteLovely work, I like what you’ve done with the skin too. I’ll need to give this army painter stuff I hear so much about a go one of these days.
ReplyDeleteDo give it a go, it so easy and v
DeleteNicely painted figures with bags of character, well done.
ReplyDeleteCheers Stuart.
DeleteNice sculpts, lovely painting!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Glad you like them Iain.
DeleteSplendid colours on these, smashing paint job
ReplyDeleteCheers Jamie.
DeleteCheating or not, these chaps look spiffing Ray!
ReplyDeleteCheers Sander!
DeleteFrench and Indian wars with an Indian warband what's not to like! Seems we both have the same picture of what a scout is.
ReplyDeleteChristopher
Great minds ah?
DeleteExcellent job Ray and some of them even have clothes on. ;)
ReplyDeleteNot much though?
DeleteNice war paint job
ReplyDeleteThanks Scooba!
DeleteGreat choice of figures!
ReplyDeleteCheers Barks!
Delete575 points - clearly from the If in doubt go large school of Advanced Mathematics! A cracking entry - I do like this period and this has inspired me to re-visit it. Lovely work
ReplyDeleteI've never been that good at Math Peter? I'll be looking out for some Indians from you soon then.
