Bugger me! That's all rather good.
Good to see Ian Anderson can still cut a rug.

Re: HMS Priapus' Flying Bridge
Happy new year to all. Been awhile, so I'll catch up here quickly.
Bought some print files over the summer, and really like Piano Miniatures' stuff. So after a false start with these Wurttembergers, I decided to hold off and await their Tyrol Rebellion KS.
Adding odds and sods incrementally to the Montrose which I was sharing previously.
The Badenoch militia was the last unit needed.
And now have all the battalia present at Tippermuir. Some Irish and vignettes below.
Major effort has been focused on the Russo-Persian War instead. Camel guns (and British advisor)
Cossack mounts awaiting riders.
Cossack horse holder. One planned for both the Ural and Don groups, respectively.
For when they dismount, of course.
Persian line infantry
Persian militia
First of my Persian command figures.
17th Jaegers did the heavy lift for the Russians in this theatre. First group of several.
Persian line cavalry and a priest. Persian horse will be a mix of line troops and Kurds (see second comparison photo)
Test figure for the Dons
Green stuff conversions to make some Ciracassian skirmishers for the Persian force.
Bagage train for Persians. Wagon for Russians and Cossacks looting will be the equivalent.
And a quick detour into 0200 Hours.
Denison: 1st Attempt
Dension 2nd attempt:
Denison, 3rd attempt. This time on some Royal Marine Commandos.
A downed pilot for various scenarios.
And, lastly, the Germans
I'll doing another collaborative project this year. MASSIVE PHALANX OBJECT AHEAD.
Around 10 of these will make the Phalanx Object...
Making some bespoke shield transfers.
Here they are next to commercial specimens.
Each element within the Phalanx Object generates Ekdromoi - or hoplite skirmish types who try to drive off psiloi. These will form one of those little groups.

By gum, but that is a marvellous array of painting excellence!
There is no point in being stupid if you don't show it!

Re: HMS Priapus' Flying Bridge
Right. I'm gobsmacked. Just gorgeous. And now I know my own version of the Alps Aflame figures will be massively upstaged...

Re: HMS Priapus' Flying Bridge
it's all so beautiful !!!
Re: HMS Priapus' Flying Bridge
That's really impressive, mate. I particularly like your Württemburgers and Irish, plus it's good to see someone else doing their own decals. Are you using an inkjet or laser to print them?
If "The System" is the answer, who asked such a bloody stupid question?
Re: HMS Priapus' Flying Bridge
Superb work as always!
Re: HMS Priapus' Flying Bridge
Agreed, those Wurttemburgers look excellent. I see our Alps Aflame STL are due to drop today as well...

Re: HMS Priapus' Flying Bridge
Does that include the Bavarians?
So, HPFP, how many of you are there working on all that lot, because no mere mortal would be able to complete all of those projects in just one lifetime. The Greeks especially look like a BST (Biblical-Sized Task) in progress.
