Just finished these Trent Miniatures figures, Bonaparte as a General and a Representative of the People painted as an Aide.

Bloody superb!

"C'est ta merde de cheval?!"

Thank you, that's very kind. And funny too! Here's the third figure from the purchase ~

Murat as ADC to General Bonaparte. Also by Trent Miniatures.

I've delved into my box of Essex 28mm I got from LT to put together a few units for LR. Found a unit of Mongol heavy cavalry that will be fielded as Syrian, they look pretty similar, a unit of I think Mongol and Cuman mounted archers I'll use as Turcople/Cuman allies for the Crusaders and a varied unit of odds and ends that will make a Syrian heavy cavalry unit. I just need a few extras from Essex who usefully have a 10% sale on to make up a few more mounted units and skirmishers.

Ooow excellent...which period of crusaders are you doing??

Also, what's your force makeup for LR? You gone with a larger setup for flexibility and to offer a larger game?

I've got a metric shit-load of Normans/Andalusians/1st crusaders that I need to decide which to do. Love the thought of Crusader forces with some mixed in Turcopoles in there

These look great!!

Have you used a lighting booth to take these?? My pics always look so shit, as I can't get the lighting right (plus the paint job is turd )

I use the same three daylight LED lamps on my painting desk plus a sheet of A4 pale blue-grey paper from my wife's craft cupboard as background. (I usually edit my pictures slightly - crop, exposure, sometimes saturation, to get a decent true to eye image.) Hope that is some help.

Very much so...just need to figure out how to do more with my camera now

Lovely painted figures.



Willz.

Finished, 1 French Foreign Legion Fort (name still pending) and a base of converted Indian skirmishers.

Both 6mm
